A players name will appear on this list if they meet any of the below criteria:

On Christmas Day 2010 - the Richmond Football Club lost a champion in Maurice Rioli.
Earlier that year, I interviewed him over the phone indepth regarding coming to Richmond, his time at Tigerland and the Norm Smith Medal.

Here is a brief snippet of his interview with me.  In this extract, Maurice speaks to me about the other clubs that were after him, before he came to Richmond.
