The Jack Gibson Cup is a rugby league match contested annually in the National Rugby League between the Parramatta Eels and the Sydney Roosters. The Jack Gibson Cup was introduced in 2008 to commemorate Jack Gibson after his death in the same year. [1] In the inaugural season it was reported that the winner would be determined by the aggregate scores between the teams over their regular season matches. [2] In the 2014 season, this led to a dispute between the teams after Parramatta won the second match 14–12 and received the trophy despite the aggregate score being 68–18 in favour of Sydney. [3]
