5...The 2 grand final coaches for 2010 have faced each other before as coaches in 2 grand finals in 1992 and 1993
Brian Smith the current Sydney Roosters coach was then the coach for the St George Dragons he in years before had played for the Dragons and also coached the Illawarra Steelers. Wayne Bennett was then the coach of The Brisbane Broncos. As history shows Wayne Bennett came out the victor as coach in each of those grand finals.
