Feedback/Suggestions / Parramatta v Newcastle Qualify...
Last post by Paul Carter - 30 May, 2026, 09:21:16 PM
I just thought I would let you know. In the Qualifying Final between Parramatta and Newcastle at Parramatta Stadium on September 4, 1999.
-That Parramatta Lead 14-10 at Halftime.
-Sorry to point this out. I notice in that game for Newcastle. That you have Mark Hughes Wearing No. 5. Steve Simpson Wearing No. 17.
-Hughes Wore No. 4. When he played Centre for Newcastle in that game.
-Simpson Wore No. 18. When he came off the Bench for Newcastle in that game as well.

Just even further I think it would also be a good idea to try and get in contact with current NRL Touch Judge who has also refereed  New South Wales cup Daniel Luttringer at the NSWRL Referees Association. Because he appears like he is close to the historian of the NSWRL Referees Association. He did all those interviews in the life members series of the NSWRL Referees Association 5 years ago. That I mentioned in a previous post.

A notation for this game, Terry Lamb finished up in number 52 as you can see when he scores his last try & a few seconds earlier, Peter Johnston can be seen in number 53.

The contact I have used is the general one here:

https://www.nrl.com/contact-us

down the bottom under get in touch.

Why not say you are writing on behalf of the rugby league project & tell them what you are looking for? Perhaps someone could organise a trip for you or someone else to go to the NRL to look through the records yourself, rather than one of their staff members doing the work. The RLP does a great community service for everyone in rugby league, so surely the NRL should welcome this website with open arms. I would say the same about Fox Sports too. They have so much footage & I know they use this website all the time from what they say.

As I always say, if you don't ask, you don't get. All they can say is no at the worst. It is worth a try.

Don't forget also. There was the Life Member Series of the NSW Rugby League Referees Association. They did a couple of years ago. In which former Touch Judges Tony Danks, Barry Ruttle, Bryan Gilchrist, Max Dunn, Brian Bonnie, Steve Betts, Barry Bolton, Peter Ryan, Brian Wiseman. Ian McCall were all interviewed. Who were all Touch Judges in those years I mentioned in the previous post. Which should also help you fill in some of missing pieces from those years I mentioned as well.
