Of course they play St K FC

FFS !

- Buddy's 350th
- Cotchin 300th
- Cotchin retires

So all we need now is Reiwoldt to join him and some Geelong player to do the same.

You cant make this up!

It would be nice to send him off in the style he deserves 😁

It is a Maddie's match so I hope they show up and show a bit of intestinal fortitude for once.

Just put Windhager on him and shut him down, until he gives up and exposes his inner sniper or gets subbed off.

Just win. FFS

Is he retiring after this game?
If not, it's just another game for the sniper.

Heard he is injured and may not play which may be just as well as he tore us a new one last time

Great, Richmond unlike our club seem to always get up for milestone/retirement games.

You really can't use that as an excuse. If the club is good enough they win.

Yeah I agree

Amongst the general loserish mentality that we’re all prone to adopt from time to time, this line of thinking has always bothered me the most.

Concede the game now and line up excuses

His actual last game is the last round, so I wouldn't consider this a "milestone" game. He just announced he would retire.

We should announce our Captain is stepping down at seasons end to neutralise the situation.

Is that because 2 minuses equals a positive?

In pure algebraic terms yes, but first you have to divide each side by a (retiring captain) and a (stepping down captain) and then multiply by a super coach to the power of an acting coach.

The numbers don't lie if you follow the math.

Just logged in to see whether there was a Cotchin thread with the intention of posting exactly this.

Dylan Shiel never seemed the same after Cotchin nailed him illegally in a final. I think only Richmond will wave a fond goodbye.

Ridiculous suggestion. I wish someone would neutralise ridiculous posts like this.


Rugby League would have to be the stupidest, most moronic and over rated game of all time.
