  We consider a confining Yang-Mills theory without Goldstone Bosons which
could describe the bosonic sector of the weak interactions. This model can be
gauge invariantly regularized on a lattice. A strong coupling analysis of the
low lying bound state spectrum indicates that the vector isotriplet bound state
(the right quantum number to represent the W-boson) could be the lightest state
if the mass of the pseudoscalar isosinglet is raised sufficiently by the effect
of the chiral anomaly (in analogy to the $\eta'$ mechanism of QCD). This work
is a preliminary study in support to an intensive lattice Monte Carlo analysis
of the model.
