Ricky's Best-of-Three Grand Final Series

[Kingbilly]

Wouldn’t know. I don’t have the slightest bit of interest in the round ball game. I would rather stick leaches in my eyes than watch that crap.

Thats my point, the game sinks not just the model it uses

Yeah but I enjoy the footy more than I do leaches in the eyes!

I believe the NRL should keep it as a one game Grand Final, but the kick-off at 3pm, if it isn't too hot.

I'd prefer a top 6 finals system, whilst there are 16 teams.

Week 1
Game 1: 4 v 5
Game 2: 3 v 6

Week 2
Game 3: 1 v winner of Game 1
Game 4: 2 v winner of Game 2

Week 3 (Grand Final)
Game 5: winner of Game 3 v winner of Game 4

I am a traditionalist who would not want to see us move to a best of three GF series in the normal course. However, under these highly unusual circumstances, I would be open to the idea. I would rather have this then an Origin series TBH if we had to choose. The priority should always be to the clubs and the fans. Origin is a nice to have, but the bread and butter of the game needs to be the greatest priority. The winner of the first two games would be crowned winners. It should certainly not be more than a best of three - league is too hard and physical to be treated like the NBL for example.

The other thought I had was perhaps have something like the A-League - the premiers and champions - one for the first past the post winner, and the other the winner after the finals series, irrespective of whatever that series looks like. That way, we have a shot at both titles - not just the three peat!

Top 8 final series just the way it is, for me.
We might finish 7 or 8 but be building momentum, and be the first club to win the GF from 7 or 8.

Could this be optimism? From bondi.boy??

May be another symptom of the virus...

No chance that will ever happen, it would cost the NRL too much money in the broadcast deal to just lop 4 games off the final series for no real reason.
