It pisses me off that two grandsons of players from the 1953 Premiership team are playing with other clubs but unless they bring in Grandfather/son recruiting there is nothing that we can do about it. Ed Richards is probably the bigger disappointment. Not only is he part of the multi generational Pannam Richards dynasty but I suspect that he is going to be a very good player. Sam Weideman on his current form does not look as if he is going to be as good as his Grandad - although he may be better than his Dad. _________________ Born and raised in Black and White |

Dynasties like the Rioli,s —the Danihers are excellent
But Pannam —Richards dynasty goes back to somewhere around 1890 _________________ I'm not arguing--just explaining why i am right |

Early days, but Ed looks like a good player in the making.
Can we persuade him to defect to us in two years? _________________ | 1902 | 1903 | 1910 | 1917 | 1919 | 1927 | 1928 | 1929 | 1930 | 1935 | 1936 | 1953 | 1958 | 1990 | 2010 | 2023 | |

I reckon they should. 100 games for father-son, 200 games grandfather- grandson, 300 great grand father....400 great great... |

It’s rubbish like Richards playing against us that brings into sharp focus that the great game we loved has been turned into an entertainment spectacle.
Still, if the Weed’s grandson can barrack for Richmond and play for Melbourne, anything is possible.
I hope Richards plays badly and repeatedly turns the ball over at halfback. Unfortunately, he’s not that guy - they’re mostly in our team - but I have no interest at all in seeing him play well. I look forward to him having a short, ordinary career for a short, ordinary club. |

Richmond may have a similar issue coming up in a couple of years with probably their most famous lineage. Frank Bourke played for the club,followed by his son Francis who was followed by his son David. David made it to 85 games. David's son, who is 15 years old, is around 6 feet 4 or 5 tall and can play. David is 15 games short to make him a father-son though. |
