So here is a question, in which decade was Rugby League the best to watch?

I watch a fair bit of League from past decades on YouTube and the like and I have been watching live for over 30 years.

For me the best decade for the sport was the 1980's... not for Great Britain results of course but the way the Australian teams and Kangaroos revolutionised the game back then with attacking play and fitness was ground breaking. 

There was crunching defence but not the suffocating wrestling we see today and so attacking players could have deep attacking lines and really entertain.

late 70s/80s for me too as a spectacle, the only real downside was the messy scrums and how head high shots particularly to smaller players simply were ignored by refs.
