1979 Senior team photo restored

The 1979 'Senior First' team will forever rank as one of the finest sides ever to wear the scarlet jersey of Marist St Pats.

Featuring three All Blacks in John Fleming, Tu Wyllie and Brian McGrattan, two Maori All Blacks in Wyllie and Paul Quinn and a host Wellington representatives, this side swept all in their wake. The side won 20 from 20 en route to retaining the Jubilee Cup they had won the previous year.

Special thanks to Life Member Paul 'Budgie' Jacobsen who undertook the process of having this photo restored and reprinted to take pride of place in the Marist St Pats clubrooms.
