SEASON WRAP (short version)
A huge congratulations go out to all Blue Giants (and Convicts) for their Grand Final successes. Wins in the Burke, Whiddon, Judd, Halligan (Convicts) and the treasured Club Championship proved once again that the Giants were the dominant club in the Subbies Competition.
Commiserations to our brave Kentwell Cup who looked to have the cup filled with sweet nectar and being passed around the Woollahra Hotel bound bus until the last minute, where the slightest of mistakes at the breakdown proved very costly. (beyond belief in fact) Nevertheless it was a great season and Old Colleagues will be looking forward to more great rugby from the Club in 2017.
MERCHANDISE
Silly season is about to kick in and that means that Christmas is just around the corner. I’ve heard that Santa loves giving out Blue Giant gear to family, partners and friends, so get online at the Colleagues website and start shopping. Special summer wear includes “ The Colleague Speedo “ and the specially organised and specifically designed for casual wear “Colleague Rugby Short”. These cotton longer leg style shorts are very comfortable and have side pockets for valuables, keys, phones etc. (photos below)

Very sad news of the recent passing of two very fine Colleagues.
VALE JULIAN GREGORY
On behalf of the Woollahra Colleagues Rugby Club I would like to send condolences to the Gregory family. Julian played with distinction with the club in the 70’s and many of the Older Colleagues will be saddened with the news of his passing. Regarded highly by his peers he will be remembered as not only as a tough genuine player on the field but also a gentleman of high quality off the field.
Sincere thoughts go out to the Gregory family at this time.

VALE BRUCE HUDSON
Condolences also go out to the Hudson family following the passing of Bruce Hudson. Bruce was one of our older Colleagues who played in the late 1950’s. Bruce was man of great stature with a huge and friendly smile and demenour. A great family man who was very proud to watch his sons Simon and Dane follow in his footsteps and play with distinction for the Club.
Sincere thoughts go out to the Hudson family as well at this time.
