I'd say it was worth it.
SOO has an intensity and skill level that is matched by no other game of rugby league in the world. Without SOO we wouldn’t see the kind of incredible games that we do so its gotta stay i say. Not even grand finals are intense as SOO. The quality of some NRL games is absolute crap but SOO throws up top quality matches every single time.

However... the scheduling does need to be addressed to maintain fairness and ensure all clubs can field their best available (non-injured) squad for each club game.
