Dave reckons the Tigers can win the grand final
Is he on to something?
The NRL is considering the introduction of a wildcard weekend from 2020 which would see 10 teams advance from the competition's regular season.
NRL bosses called club chief executives on Monday to outline the idea and seek feedback, with a decision to be made in the coming months.
Under the proposal, seventh would play 10th in the week following round 25 and eighth would face ninth, with the winners joining the top-six in the current finals system the following week.
The move would be the biggest change to the finals since the top-eight system was introduced in the 1990s, and would be used to combat dead rubbers at the end of the season.
Looking back at last year it would have meant both the Wests Tigers and the Canberra Raiders would have had a shot at the title, and if you go back to 2005 when the Tigers last won the Grand Final from 8th place, Dave says it could happen again.
