A group of Melbourne gentlemen gathered at the Richmond home of Mr W.S.Woolcott in January 1854 with the idea of forming a Cricket Club that would carry the name of the soon to be established Borough Of Richmond.
Intercolonial cricket also commenced in 1856 and in the period up to 1892 Richmond sent 37 men to represent the Colony including two players in George Marshall and the well known sportsman Tom Wills who in 1859 was the person most responsible for forming the framework and rules of Australian Football as captains.
The 1946-47 success could be attributable to other fine Richmond cricketers in Nelson Cox, Harry Mathers, Laurie Cui-wood, Doug Williams and Len Dockett but Newstead and that wonderful player and long serving club delegate Charlie Stuckey missed the glory because of retirement the previous season after long and fantastic service to the club.
