The league will host an All-Star game in celebration of the milestone, which will be Victoria vs. The Rest of Australia.
Brisbane player Jonathan Brown will captain the Victorian side, claiming that it could be the 'highest quality game ever played.'
On the 'Dream Team' (the rest of Australia!), the captain will be Adelaide's Andrew McLeod.
The birthday All-Star game is a momentous celebration, where, finally, players from the East and West coast can overcome their regional differences, shake hands, and agree to stomp on those sneaky Victorians.

Now, how about some big hits:
