I nearly always think about him when the Bulldogs are set to take on Parramatta. There isn’t a year goes I by when I don’t have at least one conversation about this player who, on one fateful September day in 1998, saw his career come to an end. He set a new benchmark for horrid individual performances on a rugby league fi eld. Now, to give Carige’s performance context, it is important to understand the simmering hatred between Canterbury and Parramatta at the time. The Bulldogs and Eels were wild rivals in the 1980s but that was an enmity built out of style and the pursuit of superiority rather than any underlying natural disposition of dislike between the two outfi ts. These days, the rivalry remains strong but it is a very one-sided deal with little respect given to the Eels by the Bulldogs faithful. But, in the 1990s, the feud was hot – the hottest feud in the game.

  • The Post-Broncos Brisbane Rugby League Competition
    THE POST-BRONCOS BRISBANE RUGBY LEAGUE COMPETITION Club football in Brisbane from 1988 to 2019 From the Brisbane premiership to the Queensland Cup THE POST-BRONCOS BRISBANE RUGBY LEAGUE COMPETITION Club football in Brisbane from 1988 to 2019 The following is a collection of appendices giving a brief history of the local BRL competition and the Queensland Cup following the birth of the Broncos in 1988. They were originally written with the hope to have them included in Steve Haddan’s book “Our Game” covering the history of the Brisbane Rugby League up to 1987. Due to the costs of adding extra pages they were not included. The 3 appendices included in this document include: • The BRL competition from 1988 to 1997 (the last 2 years were just a final series) • The Queensland Cup from 1996 to the present (2019) • A list of all grand final scores from 1909 to the present for the BRL, State League, Queensland Cup and the State Championship as well as a listing of the years that each club has won a premiership. 2 APPENDIX ONE THE POST BRONCOS BRISBANE RUGBY LEAGUE COMPETITION When the Brisbane Broncos and the Gold Coast Giants entered the NSWRL competition in 1988 it marked a point of no return for the Brisbane Rugby League competition. The BRL went from being a top tier to a second tier competition much to the disappointment of many diehard Queensland rugby league fans. Before the entry of the Brisbane Broncos the top national talent was shared between the Brisbane and Sydney competitions with more playing in the Sydney competition thanks to the bigger money offered by clubs that could benefit from poker machine profits which weren't introduced in Queensland until 1992.
