Bio
Born in Mornington, Lyster Kirkpatrick was a brief contributor to the Richmond Football Club during the team's challenging early years in the VFL. He made three senior appearances in the 1909 season, a difficult campaign that saw the Tigers finish second-last on the ladder. While his football career was short-lived, Kirkpatrick went on to serve in World War I as a Sapper with the 3rd Division Signals. Tragically, he died in 1921 at the age of just 36, passing away only a few years after his return from service.
