Excellent stuff at the SCG today - just shy of 30,000 there, all able to have a wander onto the pitch at the end.
Would be a good way to boost interest in one of the less well-watched rounds, or push one of the well-watched ones over the top. Don't think it should be combined with MM though.
What games would you pick as 'grudge matches' though? Some possibles - Bulls vs Saints ('96-'02 finals), Leeds vs Wigan (94, 95, 98 ), Cas vs Hull KR (1986), Wakey vs Huddersfield (relegation dogfight of a few years back) would be some possibles.
Bradford gave us Hockney, Leeds gave us Moyles.

Decent idea but for the Murrayfield Weekend? No ta.
Murrayfield is about spreading the game and the Super League branding. Wearing one-off shirts from the clubs' distant pasts isn't going to make it any easier for new markets to connect with the Rhinos, Bulls, Warriors and Tigers brands.

I think that a heritage round would be a good idea as it is important for the game to celebrate it's history. We could play in our original red shirt with blue band.
