1978: Rugby League's Greatest Finals Series - Paperback

by Glen Humphries (Author)

The 1978 finals series was one we'd never seen before - and will likely never seen again. Seven-tackle sets. Not one but two matches needing to be replayed. One of which was the grand final. And the other one saw a team wanting the league to erase the result and stage a replay. Yes, a replay of a replay. As for that grand final replay, well that was played on a Tuesday afternoon - the only week-day premiership decider in history.

If all that wasn't enough, one of the finalists was a perennial also-ran that ended up minor premiers. Another had two of their star players rubbed out due to suspension. And two of the other finalists were on the cusp of dominating the 1980s.

Yes, the 1978 finals series was amazing.
