They're just trying to put a bit of spice into and promote a game that means absolutely nothing. There haven't been many if any Showdowns where both teams were mathematically out of the season. But I agree with Nicks, surely celebrating Robbie Gray's career is enough.
Robbie Gray's final match is enough promotion in itself. This other stuff is completely pointless and only gives them a reason to try and win. There's zero chance Nicks doesn't use this pre-game to get his team of potatoes fired up. Scary thing is it'll probably work.
