So many great great achievements but none more than the amount of sphincter clenching frustration he gave opposition supporters who tried so hard to discredit his achievements his whole career - for Jack to just keep taking big grabs and kicking bags of goals and in the process being a prime driver behind 3 glorious flags and a brilliant dynasty....

What a state of origin forward line Tassie would have, the 4 greatest forwards ever to play for us all from Tassie, which is just bizarre to think about.
(Meteoric Rise, there's some stats to work out, you who carry Ron the Bear's baton).

F: Roach, Riewoldt, Gale
HF: Richo, Hart, Stewart (resting )

What a fitting tribute for the two most important players to have pulled on the Richmond jumper this dynasty to play their last two games together.
Legends.
 
Nobody bleeds yellow & black more
Summed it up perfectly mate
Don’t think I’ve ever seen a player so unashamedly show his passion for the club
 
When Richo left I wasn't sure if we would see another dominate key forward for a while but along came Jack who not only took that torch but also helped lead us to greatness.
Going to miss his fist pumping, raised arm, goal celebrations.

WOW...all I can say is wow!!! First Rancey, then Shedda, next Cotch and now JR8!!!
The best of the best! My Heroes of the 2017, 2019 and 2020 GFs...going, going, gone...
Feck it feels like a member of my immediate family has just upped and left me...Ahhhh Jacky we rode the RFC Highs and Lows together...
The pack marks in the 1st Q of the 2017 GF when we needed you the most!!!...the 10 goals kicked agin GCS...the dead eye dick kicking for goal agin GWS in the 2019 GF!!! The JR8 stare after kicking a goal in a tough footy contest! The magnificent knockon to dusty for a goal when flying for a mark!
The crawling on your hands and legs up the stairs wanting to go back onto the footy ground when concussed...the ultimate competitor!...so funny!
The lead singer singing Mr Brightsides after the 2017 GF...strutting your stuff in your footy gear like you belonged in front of a rock band!
From Tassy and Dimma was right...it is always about you!!!
For me it was simply you were Mister Reliable when kicking for goal! So accurate! So straight! So clean and precise!...Ahhhh Jacky...


Awesome post. Resonate with it 100 % ! Thanks for sharing.

I remember the last days of Mark Lee & Jim Jess , every moment watching them meant so much to me. Then when Flea and Disco went it truly slammed shut a great time.

Yep JR8 , an absolute icon of the game. His marking and tackles in the first quarter of 2017 single handed kept us in it.

Still, the only Riewoldt to ever win anything.

a true Richmond man, thanks for the great ride Jack, from the 10 goals in a game to all high marks, dodging the media at the train station and sneaking up the stairs when concussed not to mention Mr. Brightside
a great of the game and will always be a champion in my mind. Enjoy whatever comes your way in retirement.

Yup
We know he has aspirations to work in the footy media but surely the club would be talking to Jack to remain significantly involved in some form moving forward.
We really need to harness the passion and love to help build and generate the Richmond Man 'culture' for the next batch of teammates....
 
still remember the 10 goals at the g in the tradtional yellow against the e girls in 2010

what a tragedy that he finished his career in a nasty fluro canary yellow big bird long sleeve clash guernsey
