A specialist back pocket who boasted exceptional pace - a legacy of his subsidiary career as a professional sprinter - Peter Loughran was an important player for Richmond in 50 VFL games from 1959 to 1963. He kicked six goals. After departing the VFL scene he had a 140 game stint with Inverloch-Kongwak, which yielded a couple of premierships.
