Was gonna post this on the wall, but I can never get it to work on my phone. Just thought it Is interesting that it has taken Ted Richards 11 seasons to reach 150 games. That's a hard slog! Reckons he has had many seasons where he thought it would be his last. Good to see him a regular in the swans side nowadays.
I think he missed quite a few from that punctured lung that Fevola gave him a couple of years back. Very solid defender, now that Bolton's retired and he's fit, looks like he's a regular in the Swans defence now.
Well done to him, looked like being another “could have been†career for years. It does annoy me seeing him as such a regular in the swans line up though, given bombers had big wraps on him for years so stuck with him though the ‘injury plagued’ time as he was a ‘long term prospect’. Don’t know the ins and outs of how he ended up at Sydney (did we de-list him or was he traded for somebody?) but it annoys me that they kept him as a good long term prospect, which now seems to have come good, but he is lining up in the red and white not red and black. Would hate to see the same thing happen with the high draft pick Gumby – again another with big wraps and injury history who is now fit but is cemented in at Bendigo?
