In this episode, we examine the 2010 finals series and particularly a famous game between the Wests Tigers and the Sydney Roosters.
In 1929 a plot was made between old rivals South Sydney and Balmain to steal and share the local district from Glebe by kicking them out of the competition....or was it the area of Glebe was changing to a more industrial and less residential area and their support was dwindling?
Either way, our episode this week is about Glebe and instead of being voted out they survive but they re-locate. Where to I hear you say...well I can't hear you but I hope you are thinking that. I have really nerded out this week and dug out Census data to find them a new home in Sydney that would be instantly successful and a good long term move.
Who hates finals footy. All that excitement and drama...No-one...I thought so. Well have I got an episode for you...maybe but its not this one. In this episode, we continue the period that the NSWRL goes first past the post by say 47 years.
So it's time to draw focus to the English game and what better team's history to focus on than Wigan. I have no real love or hate for Wigan but I will mess with them a little.
This episode is about Cliff Lyons and his short career with Norths. What if it was much longer?
This one is dedicated to the great Noel Kelly. We give him redemption for the 1963 GF loss and we generally muck around with St George. I break my rule to talk about Parramatta but hey I need to do this one now. A long one but a worthy topic.
When you talk about the history of RL in Australia, how can you not talk about 1909? I hope I do it justice...
Redemption for those Broncos fans...They win the 2015 Grand Final. Maybe Ben Hunt can get some redemption too?
