Rugby league history

Fundamentally a rugby union ground and the long-standing home of Esher RFC, Molesey Road hosted a single rugby league fixture: a Super League Round 9 match on 28 March 2013, in which Catalans Dragons beat London Broncos 30-24 in front of 1,136 spectators, confirmed independently on both Wikipedia's season records and Rugby League Project's venue page. London Broncos' usual home ground was unavailable at the time, though the precise reason for the relocation could not be independently confirmed. This was a domestic Super League club fixture rather than an international or representative match.
