Just read an article that said that Matthew Richardson is now the greatest goalkicker ever at the MCG on 392 goals, a record previously held by Matthew Lloyd.

Congratulations Richo! :clap :clap :clap :clap
 
Nice one Richo. :clap

And in other news, he also leads the behind tally with 786, and the out on the full tally, 592. :hihi

He is a great of the game and one of the greatest contested marks of all time. If only he could kick.

... and if only we played all of our home games at the G, instead of Telstra Dump! Add the goals that he has kicked there to his MCG total, what does it now come to?
 
I think hes up to 667 ...I reckon he has another 3 years in him and with 50 or so goals a year you would think he can reach bout 800-850.

Passing KB would be a great achievement. To have your name next to Titus & Bartlett would be some record.

What would be even better, if he decided to have children and produced 3 boys!
Do you think Collingwood might try to entice Richo sending his boys to Lexus? I think not.
Infact, I could see Richo shoving the phone down Eddie's throat if an offer was made.

Hahahaha that would be classic!

Imagine that .. we would have a Richo running around on every part of the field. Does anyone know if he has any kids? ...boys or girl?
 
Lads, I reckon richo is the coleman of his era. I reckon however it is good thing he's not mouthing off as much at his own players like Bowden on a bad night. Some of my own brats, like Shane and Wanger, were watching him too closely on the screen and then trying the same trick on their old man - old Tiger Fang. It took a few slaps on the chops to get them to behave. I am not quiet sure if the Sunlamp Kid has tried the same thing on richo, but he is certainly much better behaved when the ball is delivered in the usual rubbishy fashion to him
Tiger Fang.
 
The great man has kicked 667 goals in his career, but I think it'd be fair to say that his poor kicking has probably resulted in a missed goal every match on average. Just think - he may have been approaching the 1000 goal mark!!!
 
I just hope Pettifer plays further up the ground and passes it Richoto help get his tally up ;D

He's gotta help Richo get his 11th season as the highest goal kicker at RFC.

Leigh Matthews tried awfully hard to get Richo to Victoria Park in the first place.

Richo is eq 20th on the all-time list. If he can get up to the 720s-730s there is a cluster of 6 players around that mark. KB rounds out the top 10 on 778. It's harder for key forwards to kick goals these days than it's been for a long time, and Richo will need some luck with injury to get to that level.
