James William See (born October 1960) is an Australian former rugby league player.[2]
Born and raised in Dubbo, See was educated at Dubbo South High School. He played several sports during his youth, in addition to rugby league, and was a NSW Country long jump champion. His junior rugby league was played with the West Side club and he gained captaincy honours for NSW Schoolboys Under-18s. He also attained Australian Schoolboys selection, but didn't play any fixtures.[3]
See, a centre and winger, moved to Sydney after being scouted to play for reigning premiers Manly in 1979, joining the club on the same day as Paul Vautin.[4] He served his apprenticeship in the Ray Ritchie–coached under-23s and debuted in first–grade during the 1980 NSWRFL season. With opportunities limited, See moved on to Cronulla in 1981 and the following year established a place in first–grade. He had a total of seven first–grade seasons with Cronulla and afterwards served as captain-coach of the Lismore Workers Warriors.[3]
