Broughton Rovers v Australia Rugby League programme played at The Cliff 21st September 1929 This was only the second ever issue of the Broughton Rovers match programme, being Vol.1 No.2. The 1929-30 Kangaroos to Great Britain were the first Australian team to have the honour of wearing the now traditional green jersey with the gold double V as worn today. The Australian Coat of Arms badge was retained. This match was played at The Cliff, the home of Broughton Rovers until it was purchased by Manchester United FC in 1933 to use as their training ground. United continued to use it until 1999, when they moved to their New Trafford Training Centre in Carrington.
