  • A STOLEN RLWC Trophy and 13 Years That Changed Rugby League FOREVER!
    2026/10/14
    Between 1957 and 1970, rugby league didn't just change on the field. It changed as a product, as entertainment, and as an international sport. And a lot of the rugby league we recognise today starts taking shape right here.

    In just 13 years, rugby league went from a four-team World Cup with no final to international tournaments, television, massive club rivalries and some of the most famous moments in the game's history.

    And there's something else happening during this period that would be almost impossible for a modern rugby league fan to appreciate.


    The period between 1957 and 1970 was one of the most volatile, transformative, and momentous eras in modern human history. It was defined by the Cold War, the race to the moon, the collapse of global empires, and a massive societal upheaval driven by civil rights and youth counter-culture. Rugby league was also coming into people's living rooms for the first time.

    Britain was already televising rugby league before Australia really got regular television coverage of the game. The first televised rugby league match in Australia came in 1961. And by the late 1960s, major rugby league matches were becoming regular television events. But Britain was ahead of the game. The BBC had shown the Challenge Cup Final as early as 1948. Great Britain against New Zealand from Swinton was televised in 1951. And by 1965, the BBC2 Floodlit Trophy was bringing rugby league into people's homes on a regular basis.

    And that matters. Because this is the beginning of rugby league becoming something different. It wasn't just something you WENT to watch anymore. You could sit in your living room and watch it. You could hear the commentators. You could see the stars. You could follow the big games without actually being at the ground.

    And by the time we get to 1970, Eddie Waring's voice is becoming synonymous with British rugby league, television is changing the way people consume sport, and the game is beginning to look much more like the professional entertainment product we recognise today. This is the story of how rugby league came into your living room.

    1957. 1960. 1968. 1970. Four years. Thirteen years of change. And by the end of it, rugby league would never quite be the same again.

    Oh, and the World Cup Trophy got STOLEN!

    Two of the game's finest historians, are taking you back to relive the story of the Rugby League World Cups between 1957 and 1970.

  • Ep 41 Super League 360 - World Cup Edition!
    2026/10/12
    What on earth can we have a poem about this week?
    There haven’t been any rugby league games of which to speak
    So instead of having our favourite sport to see,
    All we’ve heard of is gradings from IMG!
    The differences on their points ladder are sometimes very narrow
    Just ask London Broncos, who are one place below Barrow!

    Super League 360 covers the top tier of the British game, as well as some lower division and NRL news. but now it is also covering the WORLD CUP!

    Intrepid scribe John Davidson, a UK based Australian journalist, provides analysis whilst Lee Addison, a UK born coach in Australia, hosts the podcast, and also brings plenty of opinions.

    Imagine if you can it's October 1954... 72 years ago.

    In the UK, bomb sites from WW2 still scar many cities. Food rationing has only just ended and most families don't own a television. Winston Churchill is approaching 80 and serving his second term as Prime Minister.

    On the other side of the world, Australia and New Zealand are embracing a new era of post-war optimism. They’ve both enjoyed a royal visit. Families are dreaming of a brick home, a car in the driveway and a brighter future.

    Sydney was rugby league mad, in Brisbane it was growing fast. But in France, like so many of its towns and cities, the sport only just about survived after the war. Less than a decade earlier, it had been outlawed. Rugby league was almost wiped from existence.

    But, it refused to die.

    In October 1954, Great Britain, Australia and New Zealand are heading to France and it’s not for a Test series.

    For the very first time, rugby league will crown a World Champion.

    Two of the game's finest historians, are taking you back to relive the story of the first Rugby League World Cup in 1954.
