That's The Way It Was Ep 6: Newtown RLFC 1984 to 2019

The latest instalment of our ongoing podcast series 'That's The Way It Was' discusses the modern history of the Newtown Rugby League Football Club.

Produced by Tony Peterson and hosted by 'A View from the Hill' host Rob Corra, LeagueUnlimited.com presents That's The Way It Was.

Episode 6: Newtown 1984 to 2019

On September 26, 1983, the New South Wales Rugby League did not invite Newtown to participate in the 1984 premiership. Many thought it was the end for Rugby League's first club. 

The club was cocooned for seven years, but in 1991 an osmosis began that would transform the club and take it to new, dizzy heights in 2019.

We are joined in this episode by Newtown Media Manager, Glen Dwyer who's the author of a new book - 'Taking it to the Streets - The Second Life of the Newtown RLFC '.

Acknowledgments:- Glen Dywer is the Media Manager of the Newtown Jets RLFC and the author of "Taking It to The Streets - The Second Life of the Newtown RLFC".
