Is anyone willing to swap/borrow/sell any decent rugby league autobiographies?
Failing that, any recommendations for further reading?
I have a few books myself willing to trade if anyone would like to PM.
Cheers

Hi,
Not in this book, I think it may have been in Dave Hadfield's "XIII Winters" but I don't have a copy of that to hand.

'The Forbidden Game' by Mike Rylance, whilst not an autobiography, is well worth a read. It's about the efforts of the French RU and government to suppress the development of Rugby League. Some of the dealings take your breath away.

Brett Kenny "The Natural"
Peter Sterling "Sterlo"
Steve Price "Be your Best"
Danny Buderus "Talent is not enough"
Shane Webcke "Hard Road: Tough Thoughts on a Tough Game"
Brad Fittler "Freddy"
Jack Gibson "Last Word: On Coaching, Winning, Motivation and Inspiration"
I recently gave a lot of books by players in the 80's & 90's away, Ray Price, Mark Graham, Mario Fenech etc
All good Books worth a read some pretty old now.
Plenty of others that I have forgotten, never enjoyed Wayne Bennetts books, expected lots and could not be bothered finishing them.
