Stace Maree Kemp April Jarden Stupid question, was John your brother?
Stace Maree Kemp April Jarden I see Cameron, or maybe more so Erena's youngest
Phillip Lee April Jarden it’s is to, got to love getting old
Jock Allen Rugby in Runanga What was going on in the LEAGUE TOWN Lots of great LEAGUE players came from Runanga
George Harpur Is the contributor available for questions as I am curious about her heritage

George Harpur Thanks April. Her name is on the photo so that was not my question
Garry Woods Most of the team went on to play under 19s with a good proportion selected to represent the West Coast. I thought it wise to play for West Coast in Soccer as I had just turned 19 with Maurice Swan . I missed out on this photo opportunity due to a shared custody situation.Craig Crestani
Those ‘leaguies’ would have killed them
