I wonder if somebody here remembers the Jewish players who played for Leeds in time past and Hunslet (I think)?

Also was there once a Jewish RL comp in Leeds and Manchester?

Just trying to get some background info.

Cheers

Rugby League is a sport that desperately needs to expand its geographical supporter base and its player base. This imperative means that all other requirements are secondary until this is done. All power in the game should be with governing bodies, especially international governing bodies. Without these actions we will remain a minor sport internationally and nationally.:

There was a piece in RL World a couple of months back which touched on this. Written by Chris Westwood, I think. You might like to try contacting him via League Publications Limited.

Yes. Wilf Rosenberg (the Flying Dentist) came to Leeds from South Africa where he was a centre in the Union code. He became known as a scorer of spectacular tries including a brace in the win V St Helens in the Championship semi final of 1960/61 helping Leeds on their way to securing their Holy Grail V Warrington at Odsal for the first time.
