Very strong team

Lee Bruce Weightman is great

We had an annual match against Melbourne High.

I rucked against Mark Lee. Mick Roberts whom I knew from little league and Dale Weightman were his rovers. We were a good team and reigning APS premiers but Melbourne High was much too strong.

Lee lost the plot and was very punchy. At one stage he chased the umpire and i thought he was going to deck him but was held back by team mates.

That was a mid-week match.

On the Saturday Lee played for Richmond firsts.

Different times.

Where’s the Keysy tech team of the century?

They tried to work one out and put together a squad of 18 or even just 16 but gave up after there was no one to fill the forward line, the wings and the backline.

I think they tried pulling a few good players over on a scholarship. But you came away with no education and an addiction of choice.

They won’t be able to field a time the next 50 years as they are now an academic school.
