Rugby League Teams at Petersham Public School in early 1960s

I have not had time to identify all the people in these photos.   But please send me back a comment if you know people in these photos.  Thanks to Graeme Grubb for the following photos.


Fig. 1   Looks like an under 4 stone 7 lbs team who played in the dark blue jersey with the light blue vee stripe.
Top row from left: unknown, unknown, unknown.
Middle row from left: unknown, unknown, unknown, unknown.
Bottom row from left: unknown, unknown, Graeme Grubb? unknown, unknown, Stephen Rodgers. 


Fig. 2  Guessing this is Under 5 stone 7 lbs team in 1960.
Top row from left: John Young, unknown, Terry Malpass, unknown, Francis Whitling,Carl Magrath.
Front row from left: Harold Graycar, Graeme Grubb, Mark Brownlee, unknown, Ray "Pancho" McDougall, Terry Seabrook, Colin Jennings, unknown.

I remember Mr Limbeck as the enthusiastic older teacher who managed Rugby League at Petersham Public School.  Other memory scraps include a weigh-in session on the covered verandah outside Mr Limbeck's classroom, which was next door to the School Hall, and part of the original Victorian era school building - brick and sandstone walls, with steep slate roofs, and highly sculpted timber facias and barge boards.
