And the good news for fans is our archive expert is self-isolating in the NRL's basement (it's a few levels below the Refs' Bunker) hungry to find more Classic Matches.

If you want to see Newtown legend Kenny Wilson star in the Jets' 1-0 win over St George in 1973 or Cronulla play South Sydney in the famous Sharknado game of 2015, tag us at @nrl across all Social Media platforms with the hashtag #NRLClassics and we'll get our specially trained terrier Conrad to venture down to the basement with your request.

If we find the tape, we'll get it up on the site and let you know when it's available so you can get the drinks on ice and snacks in the bowl to enjoy the game.
