Verran Fehlberg with one of his famous signs that have punctuated the streak (held upside down on this occasion). He says he has enough yellow cardboard to keep going for 4 more games.

| How did you come to barrack for Richmond: | I grew up in SA, so was in to the SANFL as a kid, and liked the South Aussie teams when they came into the AFL. I moved to Melbourne in my 20’s, and never really found my groove with support for a Melbourne club. Then we lived overseas for 5 years, and I got into the Tiges during that time. It was sort of a fun thing to share with friends at the start, and the passion grew from there. One of my best mates is a big Tiges fan, and another is a Power fan – and we would plan weekends where I would come home for a Tiges v Power game. There’s a big one of those this weekend! |
| Favourite all-time player? | Gotta be Richo! Pretty hard to go past Richo. He’s a card, alright. How can you not say Richo? |
| Favourite current player? | Big Ivan feels like he’s become the heart and soul – love his work. Rance too – he’s as solid as they come. Cotch, Lids, Ellis, Dusty – I want to say them all! |
| What do you most like about Richmond? | I’ve never had as much fun following the footy as I have since I started following the Tiges. Winning, losing – the Tiges always give you a good show. We’ve got a great playing group at the minute. And the fans are just awesome. |
| Do you have a match-day superstition? | Well, lately, it’s to take a sign that stipulates how many games the Tiges have won in a row! Yeah, I’m getting pretty superstitious about my signs… But be careful not to hold it up too early – don’t wanna jinx it! |
| When will we next win a premiership? | Four games time. |
