Tim and son Jobe have had diverse upbringings. Tim grew up in the small country town of Dimboola and started playing football in the local country league. His family were avid Richmond supporters until his brother Larry was recruited to Essendon in 1975. “The whole Wimmera area where we grew up was Essendon zoned. In those days the draft system didn’t operate, if you lived in a certain area of Victoria you were zoned to a certain club. As kids growing up playing footy we knew if we were ever good enough to play VFL we had to play for Essendon,” Tim said.
