Mirror mirror on the wall, which football merger is the best of all?

That question will be answered in round 10 of the NSWRL Premier League when Norths battle Newtown for the Frank Hyde cup on Friday night.

The Bears merged with South Sydney in 07 and have certainly been rewarded for their union, having jumped 6 spots on the ladder compared to where they were sitting in the same corresponding round last season.

Newtown’s unification with the Roosters helped the blue bags qualify into the 2006 Grand Final and they still remain a dark horse worthy of not being underestimated by teams above them on the ladder.
