Kevin Bartlett played countless great games throughout his magnificent career at Richmond, and he was part of many, many memorable Tiger occasions. Here is KB’s view of his top 10 favourite Yellow and Black games.
The five premierships...can't separate them:
1967 Grand Final v Geelong, MCG.
1969 Grand Final v Carlton, MCG.
1973 Grand Final v Carlton, MCG.
1974 Grand Final v North Melbourne, MCG.
1980 Grand Final v Collingwood, MCG.
Then, in chronological order:
Debut game in 1965 v St Kilda, MCG.
Breaking Jack Dyer's record for most Richmond games played, in 1979 against Fitzroy at the SCG.
1980 qualifying final v Carlton at Waverley Park (the day he broke the competition record for most games played).
1980 second semi-final v Geelong, Waverley Park.
400th game in 1983 v Collingwood, MCG.
Plus, a special 11th entry – the last 67 games of his career, as they were all AFL/VFL record-breaking games each week.
Additionally, KB’s favourite quarter:
First quarter v Footscray, Round 21, 1972 at the Western Oval, when he kicked six goals!
