Bio
Recruited from McKinnon, Trevor Gowers was a rover and winger who played a peripheral role for Richmond during the mid-1960s. He broke into the senior side in 1964, utilizing his mobility to rotate through the midfield and forward flanks, though he often found himself on the fringe of selection. Gowers accumulated his games over three seasons as the Tigers began the structural rebuild that would lead to their golden era, playing under respected coach Len Smith and briefly under Tom Hafey. Unable to cement a permanent position as the squad's depth improved, he left the club at the conclusion of the 1966 season, missing out on the premiership success that arrived at Punt Road the following year.
