Ever been watching the footy, and someone will change the game entirely with a stunning 40/20 kick?
You know the one. Your team are on the back foot, stuck in their own end, going absolutely nowhere and about to break in defence, when out of nowhere, a Nathan Cleary or Adam Reynolds type of character will step up and ice a 40/20.
The fullback is on his bike to stop it, but can't get there, and just like that, you're up, celebrating an awesome moment that has breathed life back into a game you had just finished scripting the obituary for.
The 40/20 is one of the great rugby league plays, and now, you can pair it with one of the great off-field combinations - Domino's and Four N' Twenty.
It's a match made in food-loving heaven, with the pair of Aussie companies joining together to invent the Meat Pie Crust Pizza.
Like a 40/20, it's a genius solution and a cross between standing on the hill with a meat pie in one hand and a cold beer in the other, and sitting on the couch with a slice of pizza in one hand and, well, the other part doesn't change much, does it?
But what really makes the new 'pie in a pizza' feed the best for your footy feed?
A match made in footy heaven
Any rugby league fan who claims they haven't stood on the hill yelling at the ref is lying. That's clear. Just like any fan who claims they have never tucked into a Four 'N Twenty Meat Pie while doing so is also probably lying. And if you're at home? Well, you've probably ordered Domino's Delivery for the halftime break more than once. So combine the two, along with your Friday night blockbuster, and it's hard to argue there would ever be a better match made for rugby league watching between these two iconic brands. It's the kind of innovation that'd make Wayne Bennett nod approvingly (and that's saying something).
Why NRL fans will love it
Whether you're watching State of Origin at Suncorp Stadium or cheering on the players left behind while the Origin campaign runs, the winter months scream for hot food, and nowhere is that more certain than while the NRL is on. And who wouldn't want to tackle a pizza and a pie at the same time?
“This is the kind of pizza dreams are made of. We've taken two of Australia's most iconic game-day staples and fused them into something truly unique," Domino's ANZ Chief Marketing Officer, Allan Collins said.
“Aussies have grown up with meat pies at the footy and Domino's on the couch, so bringing the two together felt like the ultimate game-day power play. We're stoked to be teaming up with Four'N Twenty to create something cheeky, iconic, and totally delicious.”
What's the deal on game day?
While Domino's and Four 'N Twenty are rolling out one of the greatest combinations since Peter Sterling and Brett Kenny were running around for the Eels, that's not all that's on offer.
How about the Footy Feast combo? A Meat Pie Crust Pizza, garlic bread and a Blendz Thickshake. Or the various other offerings - available for delivery or takeaway - on the Domino's website.
The Verdict
The Domino's and Four'N Twenty Meat Pie Crust Pizza is the ultimate NRL game-day feed, blending two Aussie icons into a creation that's tastier than that famous Dragons upset over the Sea Eagles.
