Pick 189
Pick 188 Danny Guinane -
Guinane, a defender, came to Richmond from South Ballarat.[2] He polled eight Brownlow Medal votes in 1939, the second most by a Richmond player behind Jack Dyer.
He was a back pocket in the 1942 VFL Grand Final, which Richmond lost.[3] Richmond were premiers in both his first and last seasons, but he wasn't selected for either side.[4]
Daniel was a back-pocket and half-back. He was a strong, solidly built defender, who had both pace and skill. He was voted Richmond’s best player in 1935 preliminary final and the 1937 first semi-final both against Collingwood. In 1941, he won the “Murie Cup” as runner-up in the VFL Seconds Best and Fairest.
He was playing-coach of the Richmond Reserves in 1940 and 1941. He was also a member of the Seniors 1942 Grand Final side. A schoolteacher, he died in 1992. Dan was the father of former Richmond player Paddy GUINANE. They are the only father and son combination to play 100 or more senior games since Richmond joined the VFL.
