Episode 12 - The Fibros Return

As the dark clouds of the Empire descend over the galaxy the proud warriors of the Fibros are in danger. Their only hope is a saviour from another world. The Tigers from Balmain are no longer able to assist so could their hope lie near the void known as Liverpool?

The year is 1998, the newly formed NRL set out to reduce clubs to reach the magic number of 14 by 2000.
