Ron's back

        By Scott Palmer
         Sunday Herald-Sun
         25 September, 2011

FORMER Richmond captain Ron Branton is back after many years living on the Gold Coast, and like many of his era, has been in rehab after a hip reconstruction.

Branton, 77, remains one of the Tigers' most admired players, a rover or back pocket of exceptional bravery. He led the side in 1962-63, was three times best and fairest and equal Brownlow runner-up with Kevin Murray and Ken Fraser to Geelong's Alistair Lord in 1962.

Branton's reappearance has caused some excitement among former clubmates at Punt Rd, who are delighted the little champ can again walk without pain.
