A brilliant quarterly publication which celebrates the history of rugby league

“We are a quarterly magazine for fans who don’t want to forget the game they used to know, with each issue packed with features, memorabilia and wonderful old black and white photographs aimed at bringing back memories of Rugby League the way it used to be. Published and edited by Harry Edgar, founder of the former 'Open Rugby' magazine, 'Rugby League Journal' continues the pioneering spirit.”
