With the off season its a good time to look back at the history of our game of rugby league.
2019 is the 25th anniversary of the 18th Kangaroo Tour of Great Britain and France, the last of the old style tours where the Kangaroos would not only play tests against Great Britain and France, but also played numerous games against English and French club and provincial teams.
Today is the 9th of November. On this day on that Kangaroo Tour in 1994, the Kangaroos "mid-week" team took on Warrington at the old Wilderspool Stadium. This match had a fair bit of Manly flavour. Warrington born Bob Fulton was the Kangaroos coach and was making his 4th tour and his second as the coach. The first try scorer in the game was a young back row dynamo named Steve Menzies. And the last to score in this game, Terry Hill, crossed for his first try on the tour. Also featured is future Sea Eagles hooker Jim Serdaris.
This is the Channel 9 broadcast of the game with commentary provided by Ray Warren, Peter Sterling and former Great Britain Lions half (and probably their best ever halfback) Alex Murphy.
