Richie W. Saunders (8 August 1913 – 14 February 1978) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Richmond and Fitzroy in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Saunders, a Brunswick junior, played two seasons at Richmond.[1] In both seasons, Richmond made the grand final, but Saunders didn't feature in either finals series.[2] He won the 1934 Gardiner Medal, for his performances in the seconds.[3] He crossed over to Fitzroy in 1935 and played 13 games that year and a further three in 1936.[2]

Saunders was the son of Ern Saunders, who played football for Collingwood and South Melbourne Football Clubs before serving as head trainer of University and Richmond football clubs.[4]
