Richardson, who was born in Narre Warren, played his early football at Berwick before making his debut for Richmond in the 1915 VFL season. He made sporadic appearances over the next couple of seasons and, after not playing at all in 1918, he crossed to Melbourne. Richardson took the field only once at Melbourne and finished his league career with 20 games and 14 goals.
At Hobart in 1924, Richardson played his only first-class cricket match with Victoria taking on Tasmania. He was his state's best bowler in the first innings when he took 4/34 and also contributed an unbeaten 29 with the bat.[1]
