was during the 1938 British Empire Games when around 40,000 fans attended the cycling. In round 8 (9 June) 1957, St George Dragons defeated Newtown Bluebags 10-7 in front of a crowd of 21,588. However, the ground record crowd for a Rugby League match is 30,500, for a match between St George and Western Suburbs in round 10 (24 May) 1959. This was the first time the teams had met since the previous year's Grand Final. In round 5 (28 March) of the 1982 NSWRFL season, Newtown Jets drew nil all with Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs. It is the only nil all draw in competition history. The last time Henson Park hosted a first grade rugby league match was on Sunday 26 August 1990. The Eastern Suburbs Roosters hosted the Cronulla Sharks in the final game of the season, and won the game 16-11.
