Senior List
As someone described him on another forum, these are the career stats for this overrated turkey (Richo) according to the reference material i got this from - as attached: http://stats.rleague.com/afl/stats/players/M/Matthew_Richardson.html
Played 162 Games
Kicks - Ave 10.7
Marks - Ave 7.7
H/B - Ave 2.8
Disp - Ave 13.5
Goals - Ave 2.98
Points - Ave 1.9
H/O - Ave 0.3
Tackles - Ave 0.4
Frees For - 0.75
Frees Against - 0.95
From RFC site:
2nd best and fairest 1996, 1999, 2002; All-Australian 1996, 1999; International Rules Series 1999; leading goalkicker 1994, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2001, 2002; AFL Rising Star nominee 1993; Alex Jesaulenko Medal 1996.
Make of them what you will, but i think this turkey has contributed enough to this club without having people resort to the personal insults he receives, ie, being called a turkey, a dud - amazing these names and stuff come out at the latter end of his career.
I think in a better team, with good coaching, better delivery, less injuries, maybe a better attitude as a result of having these goodies, he may well have been the best player to have ever graced our game.
He is my favourite player - I wish him well whether he is at Richmond next season or not.
Cheers
