Some great photos on the RFC website of these premiership players and officials from 1974. I can recognise some of those pictured but wonder if we can post the photos on here for PRE members to caption? I'll contact the club to see if they can do it for us. Photos will be copyright so could not post them here I presume.

Nice. The '74 premiership was what got me following the Tiges. When Brendon Lack in grade 4 asked me who I supported in the VFL, the only team name I knew was Richmond, 'cos they had just won the flag.

To think - I could have been following North Melbourne all this time. :help

Few below 70 years, maybe Bryan Wood. I'd love to have the names on the photos to help me with a few. I was 15/16 for the back to back and I love all these guys. They were sensational.

The greatest of them all, KB, with the calm of Yoda looking so little like a VFL champ.

I was in awe of Balmy and Clokey . Scary as all hell. Royce was simply Royce.

St Francis always so humble. What a lineup.

In my spare time I’m a mime artist that does balloon animals and was called in to the club do some of my act for the night.
Took some photos while I was there.
