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.

  • Brisbane Representative Football
    BRISBANE REPRESENTATIVE FOOTBALL (COMBINED BRISBANE in the BULIMBA CUP, MIDWEEK NATIONAL COMPETITION, versus INTERNATIONAL TOURING SIDES, versus QLD COUNTRY & versus SYDNEY METROS) Before the Brisbane Broncos came along, Brisbane, as a representative side and composed of the best players from the clubs playing in the Brisbane rugby league competition, had a long and proud history. In the Bulimba Cup, an annual triangular competition between Brisbane, Ipswich and Toowoomba that ran for 50 years up until 1972, Brisbane was the dominant side winning a total of 19 times (Toowoomba won 16 and Ipswich won 11 times). The competition was named after its sponsor, the Bulimba Brewery, which got its name from where it originally started in Brisbane, though it soon moved to Fortitude Valley. Though it began in 1925, Brisbane did not win their first Bulimba Cup until 1930. They won 3 titles in a row before Ipswich began to dominate in the 1930’s. Brisbane dominated in the 1940’s winning all of them except 1944 and 1945. The 1950’s was dominated by Toowoomba with Ipswich winning the only two titles that Toowoomba did not win. At its peak the Bulimba Cup drew huge crowds to Lang Park and the Gabba. The record of 25 000 was set in 1959 at Lang Park when Brisbane, Ied by test prop Henry Holloway, thrashed Ipwich 34-10 with Lionel Morgan scoring 3 tries and test fullback, Clive Churchill, who briefly moved up to Brisbane, scoring another try. Brisbane finished behind Toowoomba and Ipswich that year who played a rare final, being level on points.

  • The Association Between State of Origin and Assaults in Two Australian States
    The association between State of Origin and assaults in two Australian states : M LIVINGSTON Subheading June 2018 Centre for Alcohol Policy Research School of Psychology and Public Health 0 About the Centre for Alcohol Policy Research The Centre for Alcohol Policy Research (CAPR) is a world-class alcohol policy research institute, led by Professor Robin Room. The Centre, which receives funding from the Foundation for Alcohol Research and Education (FARE) and La Trobe University, examines alcohol-related harms and the effectiveness of alcohol-related policies. CAPR not only contributes to policy discussions in Australia but also contributes to international studies of significance for the World Health Organization. An example of its international work is the GENACIS project, which examines gender, alcohol and culture in more than 40 countries. The Centre has also undertaken a pioneering study, the range and magnitude of alcohol’s harm to others, that measures the burden of alcohol- related harms on people other than the drinker, otherwise referred to as third party harms. WHO is using the study as a model for such studies globally. About the Foundation for Alcohol Research and Education The Foundation for Alcohol Research and Education is an independent, not-for-profit organisation working to stop the harm caused by alcohol. Alcohol harm in Australia is significant. More than 5,500 lives are lost every year and more than 157,000 people are hospitalised, making alcohol one of our nation’s greatest preventative health challenges. For over a decade, FARE has been working with communities, governments, health professionals and police across the country to stop alcohol harms by supporting world-leading research, raising public awareness and advocating for changes to alcohol policy.
