Punt Road End. The best place to watch The Tiges.

Duncan Kellaway used to feast on his guts. And Dunc routinely humiliated Mark Ricciuto. (In the spirit of the Nathan Bower's *smile* is Peter Matera notes above.)
BTW Duncan had his nose broken by each of the those players after keeping them to a half dozen or a dozen touches. Bickley broke it again one day, presumably after our man had destroyed Mark Ricciuto.
More Richmond bunnies? You will never hear Steve Silvagni say a bad word about Richo because the fullback of the century only played on him a few times. Richo used to wipe the floor with him. (BTW Silvagni is a gentleman on the topic.)
Drew Petrie, Nathan Thompson and Ben Graham (as a forward) are similar types. Big bodied players with a tendency to chest mark.

I remember a Friday night game the Rocca sisters did a number on us. That was hard to take.

Good pick up - not sure how well Leigh plays against other sides but could be an emerging Richmond Specialist.
North players are well represented in this thread! Just goes to show how long they have had our measure and how many of their players seem to circle games against the Tiges when the fixture is released.
Leigh Montagna, absolutely loves playing against us. I reckon he's been in their best players against us nearly every time we've played them

That name gives me the chills.
Remember standing under the 3kz scaffolding at Princes Park ,under the great Jack Dyer,watching Carlton and Bosustow tear us a new one.
They used to kill us on their home ground and there is no worse place to be when you are on the receiving end there.
Remember on the TV replays ,you would hear this obnoxious whistle by a supporter strategically placed near the mic everytime Carlton scored a goal there.
Used to wind me up.
There was a time we couldn't lay a hand on Andrew McCloud - he'd just run the length of the ground and do what he liked.
Glen Archer used to scare the hell out of Richo too.
I remember Sam Kekovich took some stopping - I was pretty young then so it might have been only one game.

Certainly did. Had Richo's measure more than once. One of the only ones who did one on one.

Speaking of Carlton goalsneaks, Fraser Murphy used to carve us up every time we played the Blues.
