An old, old wooden ship

Who’s this team in a plain red top we’re playing?

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

Who’s December? Ross Funcke?

[Kyle Pollard @KylePollard]

Richmond’s 2027 calendar is having a normal one in August.

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@KylePollard @QuantumHawk666 Yeah this is next level.

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@CamDonDuncan

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@rhettrospective My thoughts precisely. Neither has your dad really

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@rhettrospective Hey Rhett, you’ve probably got copies of this, but just stumbled across a folder of hundreds of newspaper clippings my nana never got into the scrapbooks, and here’s a few from, and I quote, ‘400, one game to go’

I particularly like “Kev could rev in ‘84”

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@trev1712 @Richmond_FC More old football related slides please!

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@Luck_7773 FENTON!!!

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@rfcswallace @KiwiTiger12 He actually defended him pretty well!! Daicos just a freak

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@grantcohn As most people have said, his work on Full Fontal, especially as Poida, is iconic. Life long St Kilda supporter as well

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@Nerds4lifeSC Mick Martyn has Bailey Scott covered I reckon

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@MaddisonJ_1944 Too early to tell. Overcame a lot to get there this year, so history could say that was the last hurrah. But that list looks in very very good shape to me, and between the ears, you guys just know how to win.

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@StKFootball Especially with Higgo’s high ball drop. Might’ve missed that altogether!

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@guidohatzis Oh I’m so sorry it didn’t quite work out firing guys…you’re doing a lot right obviously. Hopefully learn from it, as we did from our finals losses 2013-15

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

Brisbane still probably would’ve found a way…but good lord Treacy missed because he was trying to torp it into the fifth tier.

Gimme Alex Rance demanding everyone stop smiling and focus on the process with 2 minutes to go in the 2017 grand final instead please!

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@sDrewth Yeah that’s it. I just think with a brand new building taking place, it’d be easy to say that we’ll honour him with a terrace, a balcony or a room somewhere there, and being clear about what’s happening. Involving members can be messy for sure, they’ve got to make decisions

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

So Fred Swift award out, Cotchin award in? Seems a bit harsh!

[Richmond FC 🐯 @Richmond_FC]

Richmond legends will be honoured with new medals to be awarded on the Club’s Best and Fairest night this Tuesday 🏅

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@Rockett2424 Whatever…I’m talking about how he approached the 2017 grand final. We had the ability to cover for him after he left

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@Rockett2424 Yep…same guy. Weird as fuck, absolutely. But when he was playing, he was all the way in.

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@sDrewth Yeah that was a silly thing for me to say. I just think there should be sone transparency around these things. We can’t forget the past and need ways to acknowledge people like Fred Swift when they are moved on. Are we renaming the Jack Dyer Stand every 50 years?

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@sDrewth Settle…of course Cotch should be recognised, but so should Fred Swift, and it would be nice to know how the club will continue to honour him now that he has been removed from the awards.

[John Carr @TheHolyBoot]

@Tiger27745120 So did Fred Swift, captain of the drought breaking 1967 grand final
