careerhighlights =Graeme 'Gypsy' Lee (born 12 July 1939) was an
Australian rules football er who played with St Kilda in the VFL during the early 1960s. He also had a noted career in Tasmania and is a half forward flanker in Launceston's official 'Team of the Century'.Lee was used mostly as a wingman but he also spent time as a half forward flanker and at full-forward. He started his career in 1956 at Wynyard and four years later moved to the mainland where he was recruited by St Kilda. His three year stint at St Kilda saw him manage just 18 senior appearances, with injury preventing him from taking a regular spot in the team. When he returned to Tasmania in 1963 he joined Northern Tasmanian Football Association club Launceston and served as captain-coach. His fourth and final destination was East Devonport where he remained a captain-coach and steered them to a rare premiership.
Amongst his 11 interstate appearances for Tasmania, Lee captained his state at the
1966 Hobart Carnival where he finished equal third in the Tassie Medal and earned selection to theAll-Australian team.References
