A Richmond question;

What number has won the most B&F's at the Richmond Football Club ?

17?

Correct to a degree - Number 17 has won 12 in total, however there is conjecture as to the 1st in #17 because Rhett's book lists Bill Bourke as having no number & no B&F, however the 2007 annual reports lists Bill Bourke winning the B&F as the Tigers of Old book has him in #17.

But saying that Number 17 has won 2 more than the next number.

I thought they didn't have numbers on the back of guernseys until 1910-11 or thereabouts. Bill Bourke was our leading goalkicker in the club's first 2 years in the VFL.

Thought so to MT, perhaps the history books are being "modernised".

[Darth Tiger]

[mightytiges]

OK, another one.

Which post war 2-time Richmond B&F winner coached South Launceston ?

I don't know this one so I'll have a guess and say Ian Stewart.

No, Stewart won "only" the 1971 B&F.

Finally, got you MT !!

Clue: he was a premiership player.

Anyone else ???

Royce Hart

Royce Hart

Sorry, Moi.

The player/coach in question was actually recruited by RFC from within Victoria.

Max Oppy?

[Darth Tiger]

Max Oppy?

Not this time MT, Max's 43 premiership was during the war. Max's top finish was to run 2nd in the '53 B&F.

Clue: During this players time as coach at Sth Launceston, he was coaching against a side under the stewardship of a premiership team-mate.
