Agreed.
It'd be a very refreshing GF.
Since the NRLs inception in 1998 we've only had 3 GFs that didn't involve the Roosters, Storm, Manly or Broncos.
Ahhh bless the salary cap, ensuring our comp is the most fair and even in world sport. But even then, money can't sway the fact that players just really, really,
really want to play for those 4 teams. #passion#
Re. my preferred match-up? Can't split Raiders v Sharks or Raiders v Cowboys getting the chance to well and truly usurp the Broncos as THE flagship Qld team.
Any match-up that avoids the chance of Melboring ruining a great game with Bellamy's usual grinding tactics and Captain Cleanskin hoisting the trophy with that "I'd never knowingly play in a cap-cheating team- it's not my go!" shit eating smirk on his face is a win for the game of Rugby League.
