Four sons played senior football in the VFL; Allan and Colin as well as Richmond premiership stars of the 1930s Doug and Gordon.

Two grandsons were members of the Tigers' premiership team in 1967, Geoff Strang (son of Doug) and John Perry (son of his daughter Edna "Bob" Perry, née Strang), with Geoff backing up again in 1969.

He kicked three of South Melbourne's six goals, from centre half-forward, in their 1907 VFL Grand Final loss to Carlton.

[6] Strang returned to South Melbourne in 1913 and was the club's leading goal-kicker with 29 goals.
