Honours were even last time we played in 2016, Saddleworth winning at their place 42 – 22 and we got the points at home 16 – 10. The season has really had a shocking start weather wise for some clubs, this is only Saddleworths second game of the season and no doubt they will be hoping to get off the mark after a defeat at Askam two weeks ago. We have been more fortunate with no postponements but after our flier in the first game away at Leigh East we have come a bit unstuck with defeats at home to Dewsbury Moor and away last week at Wigan St Judes. -
Download No More Bloody Bundles for Britain
No more bloody bUNdles For brITaIN Thomas Keneally It is hard for anyone who wasn’t alive at the time to understand of the New South Wales Rugby League, went to London for the desperation of the Second World War, and the hope and talks with the British Foreign Office and travelled on to Leeds exultation that quite temporarily greeted its end. Temporarily, I to lobby the Rugby Football League Council for a British tour say, because the soldiers came home to the realities of the post- of Australia to take place as soon as possible, preferably in the war world: to rationing, housing shortages, and a still flourishing southern winter of 1946. Many of the council put forward the black market. But even so it was obvious that Aussies, despite argument that rugby league was just settling in again, counting the narrow squeak we had had with the Japanese, had enjoyed its dead, assessing its new generation. But Doc Evatt argued an easier and healthier time of it all than the British. The practice the question of morale, as the Rugby Football League minutes of sending food and clothing parcels to the embattled British of 10 October 1945 show. Emergency leagues, as they were might have begun in the then neutral United States as early called, had been kept going between 1939 and 1945, with the as the northern spring of 1940, but it became the practice of British Rugby Football League Council being notified in 1940 that generous Australian families after Goering’s dreadful air blitz of the Ministry of Labour ‘wishes it to be conveyed to the meeting England in the summer of 1940. -
Trailing Clouds of Glory Did They Come
TRAILING CLOUDS OF GLORY DID THEY COME... Bert Penwill, Griff Hunt and Rugby in Victoria Ron Grainger 2015 TRAILING CLOUDS OF GLORY DID THEY COME... 'There is a history in all men's lives' William Shakespeare Although a generation apart, two men who were to make a major contribution to Victorian Rugby shared much in common, not least that both came anointed with the mystical oil of Welsh Rugby, specifically of the Newport variety, though not of a 1st XV vintage. Nevertheless, both made their mark early in the city of that name, not only in rugby but in other sports, notably aquatic. Both were born in England, but were living in Newport by the age of ten, both commenced employment before joining the Territorials and then seeing active service in the British Army before coming to Australia where they later became deeply involved in the organisation and management of Rugby Union in Victoria. The big difference between them lay in their ages, Griffyth George (Griff) Hunt being born in 1911, the same year in which Herbert Garfield (Bert) Penwill, then aged thirty-one, left England for Australia. But as a closer look soon reveals, there were other differences, not least those associated with the social, economic and technological developments of the times. Their service to the State Union covered the beginning and end of its first fifty years and the following accounts inevitably include comment on those times and on the development of the Victorian Rugby Union (VRU) over that period. Before then, successive Unions in the Colony of Victoria had arranged rugby matches against British, New Zealand and New South Wales teams, but organised club competition had been spasmodic. -

Rugby League as a Televised Product in the United States of America By Mike Morris Abstract Rugby league is a form of rugby that is more similar to American football than its more globally popular cousin rugby union. This similarity to the United States of America’s most popular sport, that country’s appetite for sport, and its previous acceptance of foreign sports products makes rugby league an attractive product for American media outlets to present and promote. Rugby league’s history as a working-class sport in England and Australia will appeal to American consumers hungry for grit and authenticity from their favorite athletes and teams. -
