My Grand Final prediction from 12 years ago

Take a look at this Photoshopped image. I made it way back in September 2009 for a friend's birthday card.

 
As you can see, he was/is a Richmond Tigers supporter. And as you can also see, it has today's date on it. I was predicting 12 years ago that Richmond would win a Grand Final in the year 2021, which was a pretty long shot as far as predictions go, because Richmond weren't all that good in 2009.

But! It wasn't all bad, because I managed to get the date of the match correct. And also because Richmond managed to play in, and win, three Grand Finals before 2021, even if they were nowhere to be seen this year.

Bonus points: Can you spot me in the image?
