2025 R1 Sun - Melbourne 56-18 Parramatta @ AAMI

[Saxon]

Twas a great game to be at.. Mundane got the loudest boos when he got the ball and the loudest cheers when he made a mistake .

Magnificent game to be at. Mundane made his own bed, and it turned out to be a bed of nails.

With the largest Rugby League crowd ever - millions also watching on TV, the '99 GF was the most-watched moment of Mundine's career, in either sport … and it went horribly wrong for ‘The Man’.

There was a comical postscript, too.

In Round 5 of the next season, as the Dragons approached a grand final rematch with the Storm at the MCG, Mundine declared that Melbourne were not “worthy premiers”.

The Storm responded by dishing out a 12-try, 70-10 annihilation of Mundine’s Saints. It remains the most points that the Storm have ever scored in a game.
