Vietnam Veteran and 1968 Premiership Player, Ron Vernon and his mate, Wayne Zahra, enjoy a beer at Wayne’s Bar in Townsville – surrounded by Swannies’ banners (see far left and far right).
Ron Vernon, 1968 Premiership player in the Vietnam Football League has just forwarded some photos of him enjoying a cold beer with good friend, Wayne (“the wog”) Zahra in Wayne’s Bar, Townsville in Far North Queensland.
What makes Wayne’s Bar particularly special is that it is now sporting a couple of Swannies’ banners that hang on the wall.
One is a club banner of the angry cartoon swan (see far left in photo). The second is a combined Swannies / Tommy’s Bar banner from the ANZAC Weekend (see inset and far right in photo).
Go and bend a banana at Wayne’s Bar if you love the Swannies in Townsville!
