He followed this up with another tweet, equally irate, this time bearing a warning.
"What's meant to be, is meant to be. And I know what I'm talking about, the other 3 QF results prove that. No good will come of this," the 2-year-old green-winged macaw warned to his growing number of followers online.
He was right, he had accurately predicted the first three quarter finals of the weekend without fault.
The Springboks indeed beat Wales late in the game and the All Blacks destroyed the French - signalled by Richie's repeated visits to the New Zealand bowl to eat.
Then, if his gift was ever in doubt, Argentina overcame Ireland.
It looked like it was going to be a clean sweep for the confident clairvoyant.
Going into the final moments of the Twickenham blockbuster, with Scotland remarkably leading 34-32, Richie's four quarter-final picks were home and hosed.
Then match referee Craig Joubert blew an offside penalty which, video footage showed later, appears to be wrong.
Foley kicked the penalty and Scotland's World Cup was over.
However, not one to hold a grudge, Richie soon moved on.
"I'm voting Shag for #BirdOfTheYear @Forest_and_Bird," he tweeted later, attaching a picture of All Black coach Steve Hansen alongside one of the long-necked seabird.
He then reached out to All Blacks hat-trick hero Julian Savea to wish him congratulations.
"Great game yesterday, mate. Also, I was wondering where you get your hair done? Asking for a friend..."
The cheeky macaw included two photos with the tweet - one of Savea's extravagant hairstyle and one of a cockatiel wearing a bright yellow quiff.
