This year’s NRL Retro Round will remember a golden era of Rugby League, the 80s, with the theme brought to life on Fox League, only on Foxtel, throughout the week and across round 22.

Fox League celebrated this week at the Retro Room of the Bristol Arms hotel in Sydney.

Fox League hosts and commentators Yvonne Sampson, Greg Alexander, Steve Roach, Mark Carroll, Hannah Hollis, Lara Pitt, Braith Anasta and Warren Smith donned their 80s best and danced the night away with guests.

“It’s a great chance to celebrate one of the best eras in the game’s history,” former Balmain legend Steve Blocker Roach said.

Fox League talent and guests were treated to a full 80s buffet of lollies including Milkos and Red Skins and battled it out with games like Battle Ship and Guess Who.

Across the week Fox League entertainment shows are celebrating retro heroes with special guest appearances and will reflect on some of the game’s biggest moments and characters from the 80s.
