We will all go buy it this week now
I still have a lot of my old mags and have purchased many 70's and 80's copies off ebay.
If someone handed me a random copy of RLW, from say 1977, I'd probably read it front to back. I would skim through a modern day edition in about 30 seconds.
RLW will always live on. Those 70's and 80's mags are RL gold.
It’s understood the NRL has no plans to continue publishing the magazine, but wanted to buy the publication to take control of the Immortals concept.
The Immortals was launched by Rugby League Week in the 1980s and the magazine has resisted repeated attempt to relinquish ownership.
http://www.nrl.com/nrl-to-acquire-immortals-rights/tabid/10874/newsid/104454/default.aspxMr Greenberg said the move to acquire the Immortals follows the NRL securing the rights to the Dally M Awards.
Bought the mag religiously as a kid in the 80's and up until Super League. Have purchased about 5 copies since.
Times have changed.
