The Sharks website is buzzing with news of an upcoming showdown between historic rivals, Newtown and North Sydney, in the Knock-On Effect NSW Cup grand final this Sunday afternoon.
Both teams, with over a century of rivalry between them, are ready to settle the age-old debate of who truly rules the roost in the NSW-based second-tier comp.
While Norths and Newtown may have been absent from the top-level footy scene for quite some time - 25 years for Norths and a whopping 41 for Newtown - their loyal supporters have never wavered in their belief that their team is the best.
Now, with the grand final stage set, it's time for these legacy clubs to prove their worth in what promises to be the game of the season.
Expect CommBank Stadium to be bouncing as these old foes take to the field in a clash of styles.
The Jets, under the guidance of George Ndaira and supported by the Sharks, are known for their fast-paced, free-flowing brand of football.
With powerhouse forwards like Hau-Tapuha and Hamlin-Uele setting the platform for speedsters Ison and Stonestreet, Newtown's attack is sure to keep Norths on their toes.
But North Sydney won't go down without a fight, especially with the dynamic Berrell and the elusive Healey causing chaos from the dummy-half position.
It's a battle of tactics, flair, and sheer determination as these two sides look to etch their names in the history books.
So grab your popcorn, sit back, and get ready for a Rugby League showdown like no other - it's going to be a ripper of a game.
