If not for Richo, Richmond may not have been around today. We, as tiger supporters, owe him the greatest debt of gratitude!
He didn't play in a premiership but, to me, he is the greatest tiger, ever!!!!

Imagine kicking 48 goals from the wing at the end of your career. A true tiger 🐯

Richardson, looks like he's really enjoying his footy. I think he's going to be around for a long time.

Imagine if he had played the Wing his whole career. Still kicked 48 from there in 2008. The mind boggles at his potential if he played there his whole career, and even more so if he had played in good/great team. No matter what this current team achieves, it will never had a player in it as loved as Richo.

What strikes me about him now is how strong he was.

[wespaul]

Imagine lining up on Richo. What a nightmare. So big, athletic and good.

I love how he misses from straight in front

[AWF]

he was the main reason us richmond supporters even showed up during our trash years of the 90s and early-mid 2000s

[darrenhorne]

That’s why as a Pom I went to the footy and loved it

[qyzah]

If he kicked straight he could’ve had the most goals in history

Robbed of a Brownlow Medal in 2008 should’ve won it🥇

The only thing I think about when I think of this guy, is him giving the umpire the middle finger lol

[yacobshelelshaddai]

Great mark, inconsistent kick, great bloke, massive sook on ground though. The amount of times I saw him kick the ball an absolute shank out of bounds on the full or miss an easy goal or spit the dummy like a 3 year old 😂 I lost count. But honestly now that he’s retired I love the bloke. Nice dude. Says some dumb things though when commentating. Cracks me up. But yeh nice bloke. Achieved a lot for himself and for Richmond.

[camwells]

probably would have been a better player now in this era, was a great aerobic athlete, running up and down the ground would suit him more than staying at home inside 50

[thisisthefaceuseeinyournig]

Even tho he is the worst commenter I still love richo
