Dick Guy’s contribution to the Club and, indeed, to cricket in general, for so many years, both on and off the field, was amazing. He was a great leader, a fierce competitor, strongly opinionated at times, a terrific bowler and a top guy to have a beer with after a game. His knowledge and understanding of the game was immense and he was always willing to share his views about cricket.
Dick was a right arm leg spin bowler who came in off a slightly longer run up than most spinners. He had uncanny accuracy, a good top spinner and the ability to bowl long, probing spells. Dick began his career at Gordon in Fourth Grade in the 1953-54 season at the age of 16, where he took 31 wickets.
