Why do they even have rings? Seems strange. What happened to giving out medals?

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.

It does. The Superbowl winners are presented with rings. Anyone remember Ace Ventura where he investigated the 1984 Miami Dolphins winners team to find the kidnapped dolphin mascot? :D

it certainly originated in the US (baseball was the first to award rings, but even NASCAR does it now as well NFL, NBA, MLB ...), but the trend is probably following the NRL who copied it off the Yanks (via Allan Zreik, a jeweller who suggested it to the ARL in 1997).

Seeing that Billy McGinty has retired I suppose a Doughnut ring would be a safe option. :thumb:
