The Rugby League Journal is a British rugby league periodical that is published quarterly.[1] It was founded in 2002.[2]

The magazine is based in Egremont, near Whitehaven in Cumbria "for fans who don't want to forget" the game as it was prior to the arrival of Super League.[3] Its editor is Harry Edgar, the founder of Open Rugby (now Rugby League World).[4]

Much of its contents are pictures and comments from the post-Second World War era, 1950s-1970s and includes obituaries of some of rugby league's stars of those decades. It sells for £2.95 per issue.
