    What a fitting tribute to an absolute legend.
    Marvelous


    Us old blokes will tell you, the name Ron Richards was part of our boyhood hero's.

    It's prolly hard to imagine today, but these fighters were spoken of daily, in the same manner that we talk of our footy & cricket stars now.

    This is not only a tribute to Ron, but a reminder of those halcyon days that pioneered the de-construction of racial barriers.

    These men were truly admired & revered by ALL sporting people. That's why I say they were the pioneers of our integrating society.

    I hope it is supported & honoured by all the communities in the area.

    Vale Ron Richards. Boxing great. Sporting great & indigenous Pioneer. :happy:happy:happy

    Well said Rodin..

    The best thing about chatting to the older generation is getting insights into these blokes.. Richards, Sands, Henneberry, Bennett, Patrick etc etc.. Comparisons are always going to rise between old and young, yet the legendary aura that surrounds these names will ensure the conversations run in their favour.... and deservedly so!!!!!!
