I hate that these announcements get leaked so early. Players, especially of Richo's ilk and standing, deserve to break the news themselves.

It was great watching you Richo

Damn, not the biggest Richo supporter but he was truly a champion of the game. Comes as a big shock to me because he looked certain to play on next year, but it seems kind of fitting that he is giving it up the same year as Matthew Lloyd.

Always liked Richo.

I do wonder though how many of these grief stricken Tigers supporters on talkback this evening, are the same ones calling for Richo to be traded barely 3 or 4 years ago

The Tiges are at the same stage as we were @ the time of the sacking of Daniher.

They are in for a major rebuild from here on. Good luck to them at this woe full time of the draft.

Sorry to see you go Richo.

Love watching him.

Vastly underrated and should be particularly commanded for sticking with the Tigers, when lets face it, they're [censored] and he isn't.

Good luck to him in the future, he has a few businesses and no doubt he will also end up in the media.

He retires as a one club player, unlucky that due to injuries he didn't play 300 and a nice guy.

Agreed.

And he is indeed a lovely guy, who definitely doesn't always get the respect he deserves as a player. Had he played for Collingwood/Carlton/Essendon you can bet he'd be considered one of the greats of the modern era.

Well, with Richo out of the picture my money is on the Tiggies taking out the spoon this year.

Hats off to Richo, will go down as an all time Richmond great.

282 games. Loved watching him. Unfortunately had to go out this way. All the best to him.

See you round the Wood for a coffee champ.

Waiting for Richo's response... :unsure:

Yes. Let's face it.

I only just came to this conclusion too. ;)

Richo will go down as one of the greats, He always tore us apart. At least Richmond will be able to add something to their trophy cabinet next year even if its made of wood !!

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
