The Weston Workers Bears Football Club is saddened at the news of Max Lucchesi's passing.  

Max Lucchesi brought enormous success to Weston in the early to mid 1970s winning honours in 1971, 1972, 1976 & 1977. 
He was at the helm of some outstanding playing groups. 1971 was full of stars and 1977 is often put forward as one of the best Weston teams.  

Life Member, Col Forster, upon hearing the news reflected  "Max is remembered as very reserved and fair. Importantly, he knew the boundaries between coach and player.  He was good.... VERY GOOD!!!

Those of us who never met Max certainly knew who he was soon enough. Looking at the successful Weston teams his face and name is ever-present. 

To the immediate and extended family and friends of Max Lucchesi we offer our sincere condolences.

Max's legacy will always be celebrated and remembered.
