Sixties and Forty20 had the privilege of sitting down with Bill Richards last week at Jacks Bar & Grill. Together the boys talked about his fascinating career in rugby league and the twists and turns that life took him on including national enlistment and a coaching clinic that was decades ahead of its time.

The discussion later pivots to a hugely important topic for the Parramatta Eels in the Blue & Gold Alliance. Bill explains the mission statement for the organisation and how they are not only preserving the rich history of the club but creating a support network for former Eels of all levels.
