The decade of the 70s in rugby league is today acknowledged as one of the toughest eras of the game - tough, hardened men playing a game that never let up for eighty solid minutes. Most who played rugby league in first grade within the NSWRL competition worked five days a week and did their best to get to training on time three times a week, a scenario now long lost in the game.
But thats how it was: the time spent playing the game was HARD to say the least -at its worst, it was brutal beyond all comprehension. Canterbury Bankstown Bulldogs rugby league great Graeme Hughes, who played throughout this era, along with Tony Loxley, Will Evans and Tony Adams, have accumulated former players memories, anecdotes and mountains of images and memorabilia that tells the tale of the 70s in rugby league exactly as it was.
