Richmond’s key leaders have each moved into an exclusive group at Tigerland following the team’s glorious Grand Final triumph over Greater Western Sydney at the MCG last Saturday.
Damien Hardwick joins Dan Minogue as a dual Richmond premiership coach, with only Club ‘Immortal’ Tommy Hafey now ahead of him in terms of guiding the Tigers to Grand Final success (four flags).
Trent Cotchin becomes the fifth, two-time premiership captain in Richmond’s entire history (equal most).
