He became Glasgow Warrior No. 364 on his competitive debut in a 17 - 15 win over Scarlets at Scotstoun Stadium on 29 November 2024. Richardson said: "It went really well. Can’t beat a win on debut. It feels pretty good. I wanted to rise to the occasion. I felt like it was pretty seamless and something we’ve been training for. Being a team like Glasgow, everyone is trying to do the same thing all the time. Everyone is on the same page. Even when there’s a switch in personnel, everyone’s one mind. I think that really brings cohesion to the squad. It was brilliant. I’ve never played in front of a crowd this loud, so it took a bit of getting used to. When the noise rises, you really feel the push and the energy from the crowd."
