Me as a kid at 1963 nGrand Final

Which one is you TO?

Oh I only wish I made it to the top.
My (very very non-event minimal) claim to fame is I played for Wests Magpies in the 4 stone 7s.
And if I'm holding onto that, I have a problem.....

Summons played Test rugby union in 1958 and 1959, before signing with Western Suburbs for the 1960 league season. He played only seven top-grade games in his first season in his new code but the following year played for NSW and Australia and was in the Wests team beaten by St George in the grand final.

Was that when you played in the weight knockout day in the Wests junior league comp and as the winner went on to represent Wests in the interdistrict comp? I did that with my club team. I was so proud to wear to black and white jersey.

It would have been about that time champion @coivtny, but all I can remember is we were beaten by Souths.
And YES, I was so so so proud to wear the black and white jersey too.
Never did like the bunnies since....
