#116 - Matthew Richardson - The Tiger King

Matthew "Richo" Richardson is an AFL Hall of Famer, Richmond Football Club Legend & Current Media Commentator with Channel 7 & 3AW.

He is a 3 x AFL All Australian, Richmond Team of the Century, Jack Dyer Medalist, 13 x Richmond Leading Goal Kicker (800 in total) and one of the most popular players to play the game.

It was a true honour to welcome Richo into the Dos & D studio and sit across from him as he shared some of the all time great stories.

We talked about the year that has been and the big lifestyle change that happens after the AFL seasons concludes, which includes a little insight of Richo outside of footy.

He shared some behind the scenes insight of life in the media. Including staying neutral and avoiding any bias comments (and the one time it slipped out), the impact of Bruce McAvaney, voiceovers for videogames and of course the 2017 Richmond Premiership.

Just wait until you hear one particular "BT" story. It will have you in stitches!

As the trade period has just finished, Richo shared what it was like to be headhunted by other clubs, including the ones that made big plays to get his signature! On the flip side, it was fascinating to hear his involvement of trying to help recruit stars of the competition to Tigerland in days where Richmond wasn't a destination club.

We laughed our heads off at one particular Danny Frawley story that you won't believe happened and of course his relationship with Nathan Brown. Plus the one day they may have got a little ahead of themselves.

This episode is full of great stories including the most painful pre season training sessions, his positional change to the wing and everyone's favourite...footy trips!

Richo is an incredibly humble, giving and kind person and we can't thank him enough for giving us some of his time. You will love this one!

So sit back and enjoy the one and only, king of Tigerland, Matthew Richardson.
