Many Australians live and breathe the NRL, and rugby league books are just another part of the passion for this legendary game. With such a wealth of talent here in Australia, and plenty of respectable players and teams across the ditch, learning more about their stories and what drives them can be just as fascinating as the games themselves.
Here at Booktopia, we love supporting Australian authors and books, and we’ll always cheer on our favourite rugby league teams. That’s why we’re so excited to share our selection of NRL books with fans across the country.
Bestselling rugby league books
With so many fantastic NRL books on the market, it can be hard to know where to start. Yet, our bestselling section allows you to see exactly what’s popular right now.
Here you’ll find Immortals of State of Origin, a beautiful hardcover that would make the perfect Christmas or birthday gift for any NRL fan. This title explores fantasy teams of top players from over the decades, beautifully imagined and discussed by sports journalist Liam Hauser.
Another top choice is Jack Gibson’s Fur Coat, a collection of some of the best yarns of the game. From the mystery of Jack Gibson’s fur coat to the players who never showed up for their grand finals, this is a fun and fascinating read into what does on behind the games themselves.
NRL ebooks and audiobooks
NRL books are great for collections and coffee tables, but ebooks and audiobooks offer a lot of flexibility.
Our selection of rugby league ebooks allows readers to get started as soon as they download the release, and makes it easier to carry for anyone who loves reading while travelling or during their commute.
NRL audiobooks are also available immediately, and make for a great option for those who prefer to listen to their reads. As an added bonus, many of the autobiographies in this selection are narrated by the players (or authors) themselves.
