Stats
Bio
Recruited from Camberwell, Harry Weatherill was a member of one of Tigerland's most significant early families, joining his brothers George "Tosh" and Bob at Punt Road. Standing 185cm and weighing 86kg, he was a physically imposing figure for the era, well-built for key position battles or ruck contests in the heavy conditions of the time. He made his senior debut in the 1919 season, a year where Richmond finished as runners-up, managing six appearances in a squad teeming with emerging talent. While he was unable to lock down a permanent spot in the starting XVIII like his premiership-winning siblings, his brief tenure contributed to a strong family legacy that saw the Weatherill name etched into the club's history during its first golden era.
