Bio
Recruited from the formidable Beverley Football Club in the local metropolitan leagues, Bob McKendry was a diminutive rover and forward who played a brief cameo for Richmond on the eve of the Great War. Born in South Yarra, the lightweight recruit—standing 173cm and weighing just 60kg—broke into the senior side for the opening round of the 1914 season against St Kilda. While he arrived with a reputation for winning the ball at the amateur level, his VFL career was short-lived, consisting of just six appearances and a single goal during the first half of the season before he drifted out of the league's top flight.
