About Wally Lewis
Wally Lewis was an Australian rugby union player.
Llewellyn Stanley "Wally" Lewis (23 March 1912 – 1 January 1990) was an Australian rugby union international.
Lewis, born in Brisbane, played rugby league while attending Ithaca Creek State School, but later picked up rugby union at Brisbane State High School and was a Combined High Schools representative.
An elusive fly-half, Lewis was attached to the GPS club in Brisbane. He gained four Wallabies caps during his career, including both matches in the 1934 Bledisloe Cup-winning series. Injuries plagued him during his Wallabies years and he also had the misfortune of being part of the abandoned 1939–40 tour of Britain.
