Hard to do these days, but a "line in the sand" type game might start some interest. The Derby and the Showdown probably wouldn't have needed it, but the physical clashes, particularly in the early years, certainly helped build the rivalry and interest.
Should play it in round 1 before both teams are near the bottom or have Brisbane play Carlton away in round 1, Gold Coast could draw St. Kilda at home then they could potentially be playing for top spot in round 2.
So, basically ladder fixing?
