The sun looks to have set on the Richmond dynasty.
At the time of writing, the once mighty Tigers are sitting in last spot on the AFL ladder, and are looking likely to take the title of wooden spooners away from many footy fans outright pick for last position, North Melbourne.
Currently sitting on two wins for the season, (remind us again how they took down Sydney?!) for the Richmond fans out there it’s not all bad, the memories of those three premierships will live on.

Round 24, MCG, Richmond taking on the visiting Gold Coast Suns. Shirking the long running rumours of a move up north at seasons end, this is gearing up to be must-see television.

From record setting Grand Finals between 2017 and 2020, to setting lowest attendance records in 2024.
