Tim Richards has got 5 premierships and has had a successful career. But he bought the flag at Meningie when he was there I know Tim well but money won that flag at Meningie and Mansell did more of the coaching then Tim. Tim's coaching may have improved but didn't coach that well at Meningie.
Can't comment on his flags at Jervois as I wasn't there but know there wasn't much coaching invoved in the Bears flag win.

Back in the early to mid 90's I lived in Pirie when Bobby was coaching Ports during their run of flags but still played back home at Mallala. Used to train with Ports a bit with a mate from work who played there and old Bobby was a bit like Tommy Hafey at training. Whistle, running shorts and t-shirt and barked orders non-stop.
Went out to watch them on a Friday night game vs Sollies and snuck into the rooms as my mate was playing in the firsts. In the middle of Bob's pre-match rant he said something like "I want you boys to fire up tonight, to be ready to run thru walls and I wouldn;t ask you to do anything I wouldn't do" and with that he bolted head down straight at the old brick change room wall at Memorial Oval crashed into it and spilt his forehead open. He then put a towel up to it and "now go out and get em!"
What a nutter!!! but a hell of a coach

RyderCourtney No I passed through Meningie that year and was talking to Tim he showed me his side and to my amazment there were about very few locals and the A grade were just about all paid players coming up from Adelaide. To his credit he was paying for quite a few of them out of his own pocket though.

Pretty sure the side he showed me had at least 15-16 paid players in his line up and most of them weren't locals but that was very early in the season but Tim alluded that he was still waiting to add a couple more. So that is the basis for my comment on the Bears flag through talking to Tim personally. He has gone on to have alot of success elsewhere particularly Jervois just saying from talking to Tim alot of money seemed to have gone into that premiership.

No doubt a lot of $$$ went into that flag. Def know there was 10 locals atleast from the premiership photo. Was a bit of a build up though, most of those guys were there for their 2nd year atleast and a fair whack of them played in the next years losing GF.
