He moved to the Albury Football Club in 1964 as captain-coach and was selected as centre half forward in Collingwood's official 'Team of the Twentieth Century'.
Weideman accepted the captain-coach position of Albury in the Ovens & Murray Football League in 1964 and lead them to the 1966 premiership,[7] where he coached until 1967.
After a solid debut season which spawned an 11–9 record and fifth place on the ladder, things quickly went bad in 1976 as the club plummeted to its first wooden spoon.
Weideman was quickly replaced by former multiple time Richmond premiership coach Tom Hafey for the 1977 VFL season.
While recovering from a shoulder injury sustained during 1962 season, Weideman was induced to enter the wrestling ring in a bid to draw publicity to the ailing promotion.
