Richmond is mourning the passing of 1967 premiership player Alan Richardson.

‘Bull’, as he was affectionately known, died this morning following a long illness. He was 74 years of age.

Richmond recruited Richardson from Victorian western district club Casterton and he made his senior league debut for the Club in 1959

Condolences to the Richardson family, wife Dianne, Matthew, Samantha, Andrew and Tracey.

Special thoughts to Matthew who we obviously know through him representing the tiges and through his media roles.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

Met Alan, his wife and Matthew during some of his health struggles. Beautiful family, all of them. You could really see how Richo ended up being such a decent bloke with folks like his.

Real shame. RIP matey.

It's a terribly sad day when you lose a father.

All my love and condolences to the Richardson family.
The club that keeps giving.
