There is a basic dichotomy at the heart of Glen’s book. These cover mainly on-field clashes but also encompass the odd stoush in the courts. This is most certainly a case of being able to judge a book by its title as Glen charts the stories behind and the details of some of the iconic fights and brawls over the 112 year history of the code. Recently I read Glen’s rugby league offering Biff:rugby league’s infamous fights. He’s managed to pick up a few awards here, too, including the Ron Rathbone Prize for Local History in 2019 for his book Night Terrors: The True Story of the Kingsgrove Slasher. To see and read more about Glen’s publications, click HERE.
In his spare time, Glen is an avid reader and writer and, to date, has self-published no fewer than eight books on topics as diverse as beer, crime, music and sport. Glen is also a rugby league fan, a Dragons man, and we published one of his rugby league stories here on the Almanac earlier this year.

He earns a crust as a senior journalist specialising in Transport and Infrastructure at Wollongong’s Illawarra Mercury but also writes for their TV guide! He’s clocked up the odd journalism award during his 20+ years career. Glen Humphries is one of life’s interesting characters.
