It would only be fitting to look at the Top 5 NRL Grand Finals over the past decade, seeing as today the Sea Eagles and the Storm will do battle for the Premiership.

There have been some truly great clashes over the past ten years - here are our picks:

5. Brisbane Broncos vs Melbourne Storm - 2006
It was the third placed Broncos vs the minor premiers, and everyone was expecting the Storm to take this one out. But the Broncos are the masters of Grand Finals, and this one was especially special - they were saying goodbye to Shane Webke, who was retiring after the Grand Final. And they couldn't have sent him out in better fashion, with a 15-8 victory - making it six wins from six Grand Final appearances for the Broncos (not bad, really...).

The Storm looked like they had scored late in the second half through Matt King, but the video ref called a knock-on - effectively giving the Broncos the title.
The video ref's call created a bit of controversy, but in the end the Broncos were too good for the Storm, who would have to wait another year for a second NRL title.

4. Penrith Panthers vs Sydney Roosters - 2003
The Panthers had a standout year, and topped it off with an impressive 18-6 win over the Roosters, who were trying to go back-to-back after beating the Warriors the year before.

The game will best be remembered for Scott Sattler's amazing tackle on Todd Byrne - a tackle he should never have had the chance to make. The veteran forward chased down the flying Byrne, coming from the other side of the field to catch "Skinny" - it's the kind of moment that can only happen in a Grand Final.

The tackle swung the momentum back towards the Panthers, who never looked back. Luke Priddis was named the Clive Churchill medalist, after scoring one try, setting up another, and making an incredible 47 tackles.

This one was also special for us New Zealanders, because of the strong Kiwi connection with the Panthers. And, of course - any time the Roosters are beaten has got to be good.

3. Newcastle Knights vs Parramatta Eels - 2001
The Eels were odds-on favourites to win the Final after going through the season with only one loss, but at halftime the Knights were up 24-0 and were playing some fantastic footy. The lead shocked everyone - none more so than the Eels, who came out in the second half with a lot of work to do to catch up.

They managed to fight back scoring 24 points, but it was too little too late as the Knights went on to win 30-24, and in doing so claimed their second Premiership since their win in 1997.

2. Melboure Storm vs St George/Illawara Dragons - 1999
The Storm produced one of the best comebacks to win the 1999 Premiership - their first since joining the NRL the previous year.

Down 14-nil at halftime, the Storm fought back to 20-18 in very dramatic circumstances. With only three minutes to go the Storm were trailing 18-14, when Brett Kimmorley put up a bomb for winger Craig Smith. As Smith went to catch the ball, Jaime Ainscough took him out with a head high tackle, forcing Smith to knock the ball on. The video ref was left with the decision of whether or not a penalty try should be awarded, which he gave to the Storm - sealing their first Grand Final win.

The win was Storm prop Glenn Lazarus' fifth Grand Final win, and it coincided with his last game in the NRL.

The game will best be remembered for that infamous moment with only three minutes on the clock. Ainscough wouldn't have been very popular in St George after that night...

1. Wests Tigers vs North Queensland Cowboys - 2005
Both these two teams were making their first appearance at a Grand Final, and with the Tigers winning twelve of their last fourteen games (including two wins over the Cowboys), they were on their way to their first NRL Premiership.

They didn't fail to impress, racking up 30 points to sink the Cowboys hopes.

Benji Marshall set up what is possibly the greatest try in a Grand Final, with a flick-back pass to set up Pat Richards, who ran in for one of the Tiger's five trys.

The Tigers were on fire, while the Cowboys looked to have a case of the Grand Final jitters - and in the end, the Tigers thoroughly deserved their first Premiership (as a combined club - Western Suburbs and Balmain).

If tonight's game is anything like these five, then we're in for something special.
