Marks for year tally and Richo

[BBC80]

The stats for overall marks are
Pavlich 195
Richo 191
Jonathan Brown 184
Riewaldt 184
Lockeyer 179

Given that Freo and Brisbane wont make the finals and if Richo has another great game he may take the lead, and the only others that could possibly overtake him re finals are Riewaldt (if Saints make finals) and Lockeyer.

So lets try and get as many marks as we can for Richo on Sat arvo.

1994 - 18th

Sad wont even come close to describing it. I cry now just thinking about it.

...Don't forget the best 3 or 4 defenders up his ass or hangin' off his arms and shoulders and the guys still keeps his feet!!!

 

[Tiges67]

And don't forget to vote for him on the age realfooty site for player of the week!!!!!!!!

And in years like 95 when he came 10th, he missed more than half the year with his knee!

True, winning the Norm Smith medal in his last game will make us all feel better

Yes FBFF but that would have been taken into account by the fact they numbers were averages - not total marks!

Hopefully he can go on for another three seasons, injury permitting. That should get him to 300 games and perhaps to another finals series if we can recruit and develop players quickly.

I hope so as he truly deserves it. I've been watching Richmond games since 1980 and he's one of the best alongside the greats of that premiership year.

As said previously, he's made the dark years a little more tolerable with his absolute effort week in and week out. Players like Jay Schulz would do well to look at his work effort on the ground. If you want to be an AFL star, that's how hard you have to work.
