Recruited from Collingwood Technical School, as was his brother Lou, Ron Richards enjoyed a productive VFL career with Collingwood.
He starred on a wing in the 1953 Grand Final defeat of Geelong, but he could also rove, and was known to be a fierce tackler in the backlines.
He left the club to captain-coach the Metropolitan League's East Hawthorn, his team won the first 32 games he coached, including the 1957 premiership.
