#RIP Brian Kekovich.
The hero of Carlton's 1968 premiership; he was SIGNED by Richmond 5 years earlier in June 1963 by Graeme Richmond.
Kekovich's coach at Myrtleford at the time was triple Richmond Best + Fairest winner Ron Branton.

Thrilled to announce I've meticulously digitized the earliest surviving Richmond Membership Roll.
It's from 1905.
Perhaps one of your descendants is on there? Click on the link below.

#RIP Lyn Grigg.
As passionate and enthusiastic of the Richmond Football Club as anyone. Was a vital co-founder of Hafey's Ambush, inaugural board member of the Tommy Hafey Club and a familiar face at all the Tigerland coterie events.

Here we go folks. The end of an era.

The last ever centre bounce in an AFL game.
Umpire Andrew Stephens. #AFL

What a stupid decision by the AFL Commission.
The solution was always in front of you - simply call "play on" if the bounce went askew.
But no, you've binned it because "umpires can focus their energy", "safety", "umpire contact"
Another part of our game that was unique, is gone.
