Hawthorn and Melbourne have more/as many premierships as Richmond.
Richmond have 4 Brownlow medallists (for 5 wins), Hawthorn also have 4 winners, while Melbourne have 6 (for 7 wins).
As for rivalries, that's kind of subjective, and i can't be bothered listing all possible rivalries.
I actually never really saw how Richmond made the "Big 4" they always seemed a little bit the little kid in there next to Carlton Collingwood and Essendon, who all have big rivalries with each other. Plus they've pretty much sucked for my whole life.
lol, loved that last bit. hilarious and incredibly true. dad tells me all the time about how richmond was a decent side, yet i cant remember them actually playing well consistently.
anyway, carlton out of the big 4 are in the best position to take out the next flag. with 3 top draft picks plus the recruitment of the best player in the game how can they not be in that position?? they do hav a bit of work to do, but if things go their way and they remain together (ie. dont get greedy $ wise) then they could be something special).
u do hav to remember tho that both carlton and richmond finished within 3 wins of the top 4, so dont rule the tigers out (lol, just kidding bout the tigers, as soon as richo's gone they're stuffed)
