Long-serving Richmond team manager Mark Opie is a special guest on the latest episode of the Club’s premium podcast Talking Tigers.
“Opes”, a popular, highly respected character at Tigerland and a club life member, provides a fascinating insight into his time as team manager.
He explains what the role entails, discusses the coaches he’s worked with, tells why Damien Hardwick is such a good coach, and talks about the exceptional camaraderie within the current Tigers’ playing group.
Also on this week’s show, the TT team dissect Richmond’s narrow Round 4 loss to Western Bulldogs and look at the options and opportunities created by the Club’s lengthy injury list.
And, in the new “Spirit of ‘73” segment, which celebrates the 50th anniversary of Richmond’s glorious 1973 season, there is a report on strong-marking, big Tiger Rex Hunt being hotly pursued by rival club Melbourne during that year.
For all things Yellow and Black, make sure you tune in to Talking Tigers.
