Should the Tigers be relegated from marquee matches until they get their shit together?
You could replace them with the Panthers on Easter Monday for a marquee clash between two Western Sydney heavyweights.
That's a fair point and would maybe work, but I don't think so.
The reason I say that is because a fair bit of time has been invested in making this an Easter Monday event. It has been reasonably successful over the years, despite the lack of form from both teams.
We can't just ditch history because one team has been shite.
The Tigers will come good again eventually, and the Eels just may stay in top 8 form.
When both are top 4 teams, we may very well get back to that 50 000 + crowd again.
Tradition is important, and although this one is short lived so far, I think it has something to offer in the future.
Tbh, It's a shame it wasn't started as an Eels vs Bulldogs Easter Monday. That would have had far more potential.
