Richmond |
 | | For Jack Dyer, playing football for Richmond was simply a logical extension and expression of who he was, and it is at least arguable that few if any players before or since have personified, not to mention helped mould, shape and develop, the essential character of a specific football club as much as he did. |
 | | Richmond at this time was the greatest crowd puller in Australian football, but for the remainder of the 1930s, still under Perc Bentley as captain-coach, the side only occasionally threatened a return to greatness. |
 | | Richmond was also in trouble in the preliminary final against Fitzroy, which led 5.1 to 2.3 at quarter time, and 6.5 to 3.8 at half time, before a steam-rolling second half display from the Tigers saw them add 9 goals to 2 to win with deceptive ease. |
