    Time for a true BRL Grand Final?

    When they brought in the Queensland Cup in 1996 the QRL had the right idea to try and still award a BRL team as the BRL premiers. The only problem was they took the wrong approach with finals overkill so when Redcliffe and Easts, who played in the 1997 Qld Cup, played again in the 1997 BRL Grand...

    BRL to expand in 2020

    I think this might be a backwards step. It's gonna be much like the comp in the first year they merged the FOGS A Grade with Second Division which had sides much weaker than the A Grade. This grade never shows on the QRL website except for a grand final match report. The QRL and Second Division...

    Hi all, I have just completed a new "digital scrapbook" called "The Glory Days of the BRL (1977 to 1987)". It contains the match reports from every season between 1977 and 1987, mostly from the Rugby League Week. Additionally all the match reports from the representative games (Amco/Panasonic...

    Brisbane Broncos book

    Hi all, Does anyone here have or know someone who has a full or close to full collection of Rugby League Week magazines from 1988 up to when they stopped printing the RLW?

    BRL History website

    Absolutely awesome book by Steve! The match reports I compiled from the State Library and the premiership winning team photos in my book were heavily used by Steve in putting it together. That said, Steve added so much extra with his own research with the behind the scenes narrative he wote for...

It could have 4 pools of teams from the QLD and NSW statewide competitions plus WA, SA, VIC, NT and representative NSW and QLD country teams from areas not represented in the statewide competitions (eg. Toowoomba...
