Congratulations are due to Tyler Green and Ryan Dienjes for making the Qld U/18 squad. The Scorpions commence their program 19 April at the Gabba against TAC Cup side Oakleigh Chargers. Next is a 3 match series in the AFL division two championships in Melbourne (7th, 10th and 14th May) and hopefully a place in the subsequent division one championships.
Our boys are alongside some prominent Queensland football names in the squad. Patrick Allan is the son of Lions manager Gubby Allan and brother of ex-Lion Marcus Allan, Elliot Duke and Alistair Nash are sons of ex-Morningside pair Michael Duke and Geoff Nash, and Rory Thompson is the son of ex-Southport full forward and Labrador coach Brett Thompson.
Also, Ben Weightman is the nephew of ex-Richmond AFL champion Dale Weightman and the son of Suncoast Power coach Kent Weightman.
Good luck to Tyler and Ryan.
