Easter Saturday at Metricon Stadium will be a day Michael Rischitelli won’t forget in a hurry.
The 30-year-old celebrated his 200-game milestone with a 61-point win over Essendon and was thrilled the SUNS could grab four premiership points after a brutal summer on the training track.
“Like I mentioned before out on the ground, it’s been a long pre-season,” Rischitelli told BLK RAW after the game.
“The boys were ready for it and it was great to get the win.”
While winning the game was a highlight for Rischitelli, running through the banner with his son Kai, 2, and daughter Lia, 10 months, was equally as enjoyable.
“Really special,” he said.
“I said before I’ll look back it when I’m finished and I’ll really appreciate it so it was really good to run out with my family and also the boys did well.”
