Many lovers of rugby league, on both sides of the Tasman, have long been convinced that Benji Marshall is the best player in the world. That view was confirmed early in 2011 when he was awarded the prestigious 2010 Golden Boot – the international prize for the best player in the game. He is the first Wests Tigers player to win this award, and only the third New Zealander. Despite being only 26, he has crammed an awful lot into his career so far. Marshall’s talent was spotted while he was only 16 years old, and still at school in New Zealand, when he was offered a scholarship to play for a high school on the Gold Coast. From then on it has been a fast track to the very pinnacle of the game. He made his debut with the Wests Tigers NRL club in 2003 at the age of 18, and has been with the club ever since. He was a member of the Wests premiership-winning team in 2005 and, despite a string of injuries – including major shoulder surgery twice! – his star has continued to rise. His performances in recent years have left critics and fans on both sides of the Tasman breathless.

Benji Marshall is a once?in?a?generation footballer. To some, he is a once?in?a?lifetime footballer. There has never been anyone like him. Phil Gould has written that Marshall is a "mystery wrapped inside a riddle". Now, all the mysteries and riddles of Marshall, the brilliant Wests Tigers and Kiwis five?eighth, are solved. Where did that step come from? How on earth did he conjure up the flick pass that won the 2005 grand final? What on earth is he doing sometimes? Benji: My Story details how a skinny kid from a small town in New Zealand became arguably rugby league’s most exciting talent. From his single parent upbringing, and the lows of his sporting career and the off?field scrutiny which shadows him constantly; to the triumphs, the Tigers’ stunning premiership win and New Zealand’s World Cup and Four Nations victories. It introduces the uncles and wider family who helped raise him, as well as the man he would call his father, whose life — and death — changed him forever. This is Benji Marshall as you have never seen him before.

The rise, fall and rise again of one of Australasia's greatest sporting talents. On both sides of the Tasman, it's been suggested Beni Marshall wouldn't be out of place in the best-player-ever contest. This classic tale of the rise, fall and rise again of one of Australasia's greatest sporting talents, Marshall's rags-to-riches story captures the hard early years growing up fatherless in rural New Zealand, his unlikely journey to Australia's Gold Coast to become a schoolboy league phenomenon, and his move to the West Tigers in 2003. Interviews with teammates, coaches, opponents and commentators follow the inspirational story of how Marshall helped steer Tigers to the 2005 NRL title. Tested many times since, with injuries and scandal, Marshall has always risen above the mire. While written off as a one-hit wonder and being labelled a liability because of mounting injuries, Marshall helped the Kiwis stun the Australians by winning the World Cup in 2008. Promoted to Kiwis captain and a famous Four Nations title in 2010, he peaked as a player mesmerizing opponents. The book finishes by celebrating NRL's 2011 Face of Rugby League.Benji Marshall could have been just another statistic in rural New Zealand. Instead, he has carved a niche for himself in the world's toughest sport as one of its most resilient and creative forces.

The “Greatest Game of All” or Rugby League as it is known to some has given me nearly a half a century of pleasure and a little pain. In 1966 at the ripe old age of 6 I was introduced to our game when my Uncle Harry moved into the bedroom I shared with my younger brother in a 2 bedroom fibro joint in Rockdale(Dragon Territory). Harry was playing lower grades for Jack Gibson’s Roosters and went on to play for St George in the 1971 Grand Final against my other front rower mate John Sattler and his Rabbitoh’s. By the age of 9 I had memorized every player in the Big League magazine. The game became my obsession. Even if I had not been lucky enough to play over 100 games in the best competition in the world(arguably in any sport) Rugby League was in my blood. As a Rothmans Medal winner (the official player of the year award in 1983 succeeded by The Dally M Medal) I have always been aware of the history of our great game and its effect on society especially in the northern states of Australia. Apart from obtaining a Law degree at Sydney University I studied the Politics in Sport while completing my Arts Degree at Macquarie University. I believed our game was ahead of sports like baseball, gridiron and basketball that relied heavily on statistics to rate their great players. Ours is a game of passion made for the blue collar working classman relying on guts and determination not on how many yards and minutes someone makes or plays. However as we get older we all like to dig deep into history and see who had the ability and drive to play even one game in the toughest competition playing the greatest game of all. This book does what none other has attempted to do—tell a story using numbers and statistics about our great game. It is something every player and fan would do well to study. Steve Kane the author of this book could be a reincarnation of Stephen Harold Gascoigne, better known as Yabba whose statue stands proudly at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Yabba was known for his knowledgeable witticisms shouted loudly from “The Hill”, a grassy general admissions area of the SCG. A lot like Yabba “Kaney” can be found every winter Sunday on the hill at Greenfield Park Albury(or away in Junee, Temora or Wagga) cheering his beloved Thunder to victory in the Group 9 Premiership loudly and clearly from 10 am to 5.30pm. In his spare time since breaking his back 7 years ago he has collected statistics on players in the NSWRL (now known as the NRL) dating back to 1908. The first words Kaney said to me was “I have very Rugby League Week ever published” as he showed me his “EELS tattoo”. “You got sin binned once in your career at North Sydney Oval in 1983 or was it 1984?”? I 12 knew I was in the company of a Rugby League tragic. This study of our game will help all of us who love the game and those of us lucky enough to have played it a better insight into the players of the greatest game of all from the top to the bottom. Written by Mike Eden, who played 110 Games for Manly, Easts, Parramatta and Gold Coast, is Gold Coast Player Number 1, and Won the Dally M award for Player of the Year in 1983

The revealing autobiography of New Zealand rugby legend Jerome Kaino. As the Rugby World Cup approaches, All Black legend and World Cup champion Jerome Kaino reflects on what it takes to be the best. At just 21 years old Jerome Kaino was touted as the next big thing in world rugby. In his first year of professional rugby, he made spectacular debuts for Auckland, the Blues and the All Blacks. It was a dream beginning for this quiet Samoan kid from South Auckland. But just as quickly as it all began, his career took a sharp turn for the worse, his life spiralling out of control. With over 50 All Black caps, 100 matches for the Blues and a Rugby World Cup victory to his name, Jerome Kaino is one of New Zealand's true sporting heroes. Now for the very first time, Kaino lays bare his greatest triumphs and adversities, with rare insights ahead of perhaps his greatest test of all - winning back-to-back world cups for New Zealand.

History was made on November 22 2003 - England was crowned the World Champion. Everything was ready for rugby to explode in England, for the national team to kick-on, for the level of the domestic game to continue growing and for the sport to truly become prominent nationwide. It did not eventuate. England lost far too many matches and the Aviva Premiership does not match the French Top 14. The result for Rugby World Cup 2015 is a match schedule allocating more games to Wales than to the north of England. Understanding how this came about and also how and why Wales secured matches is an important part of the puzzle and carries substantial implications for future Rugby World Cups. Local and global issues including decision making, rival sports and nationalized players are all tackled in an analysis that seeks to offer realistic and viable solutions for the benefit of English and global rugby.
