The origins of Rugby Union in Queensland.
Rugby was still a new sport in Queensland in the 1890s. The game only became popular in the late 1880s, but was the dominant code in Queensland until the advent of Rugby League in 1908. Recreational pursuits like football were limited to Saturday afternoon. Sunday was for church and ‘rest’. Sports only became popular as the working week was shortened from six days to five and a half in the late 1900s.
Queensland Museum holds over 1000 of Bert Roberts' plate glass negatives and prints from the era.
