Walter Roy Parkin (18 July 1904 – 18 February 1957) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Richmond in the Victorian Football League (VFL).[1]
Football
Parkin was a full-back from Castlemaine who played all his country football in the same team as former Richmond rover Jack Fincher. Parkin's solitary VFL game was in Round 1 1926 against South Melbourne but his performance did not receive good reviews[4] and he did not play another senior game.
