Notes:
Around June 6, Langdon applied for clearance to Daylesford (he was out of employement). His clearance was held over.
Any Langdon from Rd 9 onwards is Dave Langdon, as Les Langdon transferred to Collingwood during the season for the rest of the year. Any Langdon in the team prior is to Rd 9 is Les, until the initial D.Langdon appears.
'Gray' - had returned from Preston , greatly secured the backline from Rd 5 onwards.
"Saunders' and 'Large' - were from Brunswick FC - who wanted to play them around 23 May, but both players chose to play with Richmond Reserves.
'Park' - from Richmond, is a new man playing for StKilda Reserves this season
E. Vance permit from Richmond to Kyneton May 28
J.W.Neill permit from Fitzroy to Richmond Seconds June 1931
E.Brain permit from Melbourne to Richmond June 1931
