Josh Addo-Carr has likened the intense All Stars clash to State of Origin as he made a passionate plea for more than one fixture per season.
And the special exhibition could be held in New Zealand next year with Maori All Stars coach David Kidwell saying NRL chief executive Andrew Abdo is keen on the idea.
A veteran of 12 Origin caps for NSW, Addo-Carr led the Indigenous team for the first time in Saturday's fiery 16-12 loss at CommBank Stadium and insisted the contest was of an elite representative standard.
"You just saw the passion out there," he said.
"I've been a part of Origin and that's an Origin standard. The speed of the game, as well the way we hit each other, is pretty much the same."
Coach Laurie Daley has publicly supported the notion of Indigenous All Stars tours and Addo-Carr is all for the team playing more regularly than once every pre-season, as has been the case since 2010.

The Canterbury winger suggested the representative round in the middle of the year as a starting point.
"It's a special week to be a part of and I can't wait to do it all over again," he said.
"I think we need a game like this more every year. Maybe have it (alongside) the Pacific Tests in the middle of the season when Origin's on."
The cultural aspects of the week in camp remain most significant to Addo-Carr.
"Our culture got taken away from us so we need to put the effort in and learn," he said.
Addo-Carr would embrace an All Stars match across the Tasman for the first time in 2023.
According to Kidwell, it's likely to become a reality with the NRL wanting to support league-starved New Zealand.
"I saw Andrew Abdo at the end of the game and he promised me we'd take the game back to New Zealand next year," the Maori mentor said.
"I think that's a great way for us to showcase our culture and we'd be happy with that, being able to showcase this game back home in New Zealand."
