Glebe DRLFC
The Glebe Dirty Reds are an Australian rugby league foundation club which played in the New South Wales Rugby Football League's Sydney premiership, the major competition for the sport in Sydney, from 1908 until their exit at the end of 1929. They were formed on 9 January 1908, with some sources suggesting that they may have been the first Sydney rugby league club to have been created.

The club was revived in late 2015 and began to field teams in 2017 for the first time in 87 years. Today they play their home games at Henson Park in ...
