History lesson folks... Anyone remember Richard Lounder!?

For you young 'uns, it's over to Wikipedia:

Lounder was a big framed ruckman who had much hype being taken at number one of the 1987 National Draft after playing a couple of seasons at Central District in the SANFL. He made his VFL debut in Round 5, 1989, kicking four goals against the Kangaroos, which was his career highlight. His next three games were not as impressive and he did not play again in the VFL/AFL, returning to South Australia at the end of the season. He played two more seasons for Central District before retiring from state level football at the age of 24. Lounder remains the heaviest player ever to play for Richmond

Story about poor old Richard. He had a really terrible back. He had to go down to Geelong lying down flat in the back of a station wagon for a game.
