Top level domestic competition – National Rugby League (NRL), runs from March to October. The season has 26 rounds. After the last round a 4-week final series commences involving the top 8 teams. NRL teams are located in Australia and New Zealand.
History – Rugby league first visited Australia via the touring New Zealand All Golds in 1907. The first domestic rugby league competition kicked off in 1908. The Kangaroos went on their first tour of England at the conclusion of the 1908 season. This was the beginning of a rivalry that has lasted for over 100 years.
The State of Origin series started in 1980. The best players from Queensland & New South Wales play each other in a three game interstate series. The State of Origin is now one of the biggest events on the Australian sporting calendar. Rugby league is one of Australia’s most popular sports and dominates the sporting landscape in NSW and QLD.
Australia have been very successful at the World Cup winning in 1957, 1968, 1970, 1975, 1977, 1988, 1992, 1995, 2000 and 2013. Australia have also dominated the Tri-Nations series winning in 1999, 2004 and 2006. Australia’s loss to New Zealand in the 2005 Tri-Nations was there first series loss since losing a test series to France in 1978. In 2009 and 2011 Australia won both Four Nations tournament by defeating England in the final in England.
Australia celebrated 100 years of rugby league in 2008. The centenary celebrations drew to a close with Australia hosting the 2008 Rugby League World Cup competition. The World Cup involved 10 nations in 3 groups. Australia dominated the Pool rounds and easily booked a place in the final against New Zealand. Australia went into the game as un-backable favorites. What happened next will go down in history as one of the biggest upsets in World Cup history. The Kangaroos were outplayed by the Kiwis in every aspect of the game and failed to retain the World Cup that they had held since 1975, going down 20 – 34.
Recent statistics released by the NRL show the game of rugby league is in rude health in Australia. In 2010 rugby league recorded it’s highest total regular season corwds of 3.15million. In 2011 Rugby League’s dominance of pay TV continued with 74 of the top 100 most watched programs being rugby league. The 2011 State of Origin made history by becoming the most watched Origin series with a cumulative audience of 10.7million.
In 2011 Rugby League continued to see growth in grass roots football. Over 1.5 million students were engaged in Rugby League through Primary and High School based programs. Over 480,000 children participated in rugby league across clubs and schools in 2011.
Looking towards the next 100 years many are pushing for the NRL to be expanded into other states to make it a truly national competition in Australia. Currently 9 of the 16 teams are based in Sydney with 1 in Newcastle (NSW). The other teams are based in QLD (3), ACT (1), VIC (1)and New Zealand (1). The ARLC has provided financial incentives for a team to relocate from Sydney to the Central Coast. So far the Sydney teams haven’t taken the bait. The ARLC have stated that there is no time frame on expanding the competition. This hasn’t stopped bid teams forming to submit bids to enter in an expanded NRL from Central Coast Bears, Brisbane Bombers, Central Queensland and the Perth Reds.
The Papua New Guinea government have held talks with the ARLC and the Australian government about the possibility of entering a team in the NRL, But now look to be going via the Queensland Cup where they entered a team in 2014.
Australia go into the 2013 Rugby League World Cup (RLWC) looking to win back the World cup they lost in 2008. Placed in Group A, Australia will open their World cup campaign against arch rivals England at Millennium Stadium Cardiff in Wales on October the 26th (Saturday). On November the 2nd (Saturday) Australia will cross over into England to take on Fiji at KC Stadium in Hull. The Kangaroos final group match will see them fly to Ireland to take on the Irish at Thomond Park Stadium in Limerick on November 9th (Saturday).
