This one topic I am concerned about.
Since the Jets are having (finally) a good year, I don't think it is too early for me to bring up a PL home final debate.
Now, there is a precedent for this. Canterbury were thrashed by Wests at Belmore the year they got 37 points chopped off in the NRL. But for the mosyt part, PL finals are lumped together with an NRL fixture. Usually they try and line up at least one club (eg. I saw a Penrith v Canterbury Reserve grade final at NSO in 1998 before Norths played the Bulldogs in the NRL). The problem is this may deprive a club of home ground advantage in PL if their NRL team has an away final.
I'd love for Newtown to get a home final in PL and JBC (week one of the JBC finals lines up with the Newtown Jets Reunion Day game v Souths).
What do you guys think? Is it too much to organise a home final for PL?
