In 1961 RDB was suspended for 4 weeks in the last round for missing a yellow and black coward (by a foot) who threw his head back and collapsed to the ground 2 metres from where I was sitting. Cost us a flag
The lack of forward thinking, plebian thinking and lack of progress under straight sets Simon have made me hesitant to renew my membership this year. It would have been my 70th consecutive year. I'm still thinking about it, but have little faith in this administration group.
I was blessed to see all 6 flags and the 58 travesty. I was sitting on the fence in 1963 when Roger Dean threw himself to the ground after RDB missed him by a foot right in front of me. That censored [censored] got Ron suspended at the tribunal and undoubtedly cost us another flag. I have hated Richmond ever since.
Yep. Apart from the birth of my children my most cherished memories are of seeing the 56, 57, 60 and 64 flags. I went home very unhappy in 58.
Oh to once again go to the footy expecting to win and rarely being disappointed.
