Colin Ray Weiss (born 15 September 1943) is an Australian former rugby league player.
Weiss is the son of a competitive woodchopper and grew up on a farm in the Queensland locality of Sharon, not far from Bundaberg. He was educated at North Bundaberg State School and Bundaberg High School.[1]
A blacksmith by profession, Weiss was a tireless lock with Bundaberg Wanderers and was a Queensland representative player from 1966 to 1972.[2] He toured New Zealand with the national team in 1969 and made his debut in the 2nd Test at Carlaw Park in Auckland, coming into the side for Ron Costello.
