Is Simply The Best returning as our game's anthem?

TINA RETURNER

THE NRL wants to bring back the great Tina Turner commercials.

Next season is 30 years since the 79-year-old rock ’n’ roll legend produced arguably the greatest sporting advertisement in Australia — Simply The Best.

“We’ve got to think of something cool around Tina to mark the anniversary,” said the NRL’s commercial boss Andrew Abdo. “People still love her and the commercial. A great song and great visuals.

“We will certainly be honouring her in some capacity. She doesn’t travel much these days so it would be hard to bring her out here but we’ll be looking at something special.

“We sure haven’t forgotten her contribution to the game.”

I'd be so happy to see this happen. To me it never stopped being our game's anthem. It harks back to our game's glory years, before Super League. Too bad it can't return when we bring back Perth and a 2nd Brisbane club.
