Your chance to secure a piece of history by purchasing this Jack Riewoldt MCG Match Worn Retirement Home Guernsey, from Round 23, 2023.

Riewoldt has played 346 games and booted 786 goals for Richmond since being selected from Tasmania with the Club's first pick, No. 13 overall at the 2006 AFL Draft. He finishes as the Club's second all-time leading goal kicker, triple premiership hero, three-time All Australian, three-time Coleman Medallist, and dual Jack Dyer Medallist.

The 34-year-old retires as a player that is still contributing heavily to the Tigers and will likely receive his 12th Michael Roach Medal as the Club's leading goalkicker at season's end.

Riewoldt booted 57 goals from 46 matches in his first three seasons at AFL level before, at just 21 years of age, exploding into the top echelon of the competition with a 78-goal All-Australian, Coleman Medal, and Jack Dyer Medal-winning season in 2010.

The high-flying forward's stellar year included a four-goal effort as Damien Hardwick snapped a nine-game losing streak to start his coaching career, followed by a bag of six against the ladder-leading St Kilda and a memorable 10-goal haul against West Coast in Rounds 10-12 as the Tiger Army raised in voice for their new hero.

Riewoldt booted 48 goals or more in the next six seasons, including a second Coleman Medal in 2012- before adding 54 majors in the Club's drought-breaking 2017 premiership campaign.

The 192cm key forward spent most of the 2017 season as the sole tall target inside 50, evolving his game to allow for the success of his smaller teammates.

Riewoldt slotted two goals in the decider and took some memorable marks as he etched his name into Richmond's history.

The spearhead played arguably his most impactful individual season in 2018 as Richmond charged to the minor premiership with Riewoldt booting 70 majors and claiming a third Coleman Medal, second Jack Dyer Medal, and third All-Australian in the process.

Riewoldt started a powerful partnership with fellow key forward Tom Lynch for the 2019 season with his Grand Final bag of five, his season best.

The durable superstar did not miss a game in 2020 despite tight turnarounds and increased demands, playing a key role in a third premiership.

In recent seasons, Riewoldt has remained an excellent performer, booting 122 majors from his past 63 starts, including three goals in the 2022 Elimination Final.

Richmond CEO Brendon Gale described Riewoldt as a fierce competitor.
