Herb Elliott?
My parents bought me a Richmond jumper and enrolled me in a junior footy clinic in 1981...look at me now.

Pretty good guess Gibby, but he's not a life member.
Okay, it is a pretty obscure one - probably someone close to the club would know him.
Clue: Was made a life member in the 1990s

I have an old annual report in my office (forget to take it home ;D) - one of those nice glossy ones from a bygone era.
It listed 3 blokes - Cloke, Dusty and John O'Brien - process of elimination meant it had to be John O'Brien :thumbsup

As for his sport - I have absolutely no idea but I reckon it aint beach bloody volleyball  :lol

But if I have to guess I'd say rowing  ;)

ROFLMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO@how we have a gold medal in the bag in the european handball if we send the AFL players over.

Im laughing bc I was right. I stuffen told everyone that the Greeks in Greece dont give two hoots and everyone kept pumping it up....but no one listened. Now everyone is calling it a disgrace bc its empty.....

Im for watching boxing and weightlifting but forget about it....throw in some volley (mens) and Im set but we get jack. Lucky I got the basket otherwise I wouldnt be watching a thing.

Give me some table tennis.
