The latest episode of Talking Tigers provides the pre-eminent podcast’s legion of loyal listeners with plenty of positives and highlights from Richmond’s season so far, notwithstanding the team’s on-field struggles to the midway mark of the year.
Dusty’s booming goal in the opening minutes of his recent 300-game milestone is right up there, as is the superb Round 3 victory over hot premiership favourite Sydney, along with Mykelti Lefau’s impressive arrival on the league scene, the exciting emergence of talented Tiger cub trio Tom Brown, Seth Campbell and Kane McAuliffe, and the significant improvement shown by Hugo Ralphsmith, Ben Miller and Maurice Rioli Jr.
Also on this week’s show, the “Going up the Country” segment takes a look at a charming, small Victorian township that produced a dual Richmond premiership player, who also coached the Tigers.
While in the “Spirit of ‘74”, the focus is on Richmond’s goalkicking spree and massive win against Fitzroy in Round 13 of the 1974 season at VFL Park, Waverley, with the father of an Australian star in another sport hitting the scoreboard hard.
For all things Yellow and Black, tune in to Talking Tigers.
