This excerpt from Channel 9's Rugby League Grand Final coverage on 28 September, 1997 features Jimmy Barnes performing (Simply) The Best as part of the pre-match entertainment.
Barnes recorded the single as a duet with Tina Turner in 1992 and it was used in the NRL's promotional campaign for that season's competition and subsequent campaigns.
