The NRL season is over, but some of this year's contests will live on in the memories of fans for at least a couple of years.
We've had a look back at every game this year to pick 10 of the best, from amazing comebacks to heavyweight clashes that lived up to the billing. We've tried to steer clear of games that ended controversially, but there were still plenty of exciting battles to pick from across 200-odd games.
With that in mind, here are our picks for the best games this year - did we miss anything?
2. ROUND 3: Parramatta 28 def. Melbourne 24, AAMI Park, March 26
Some of the year's best games were miraculous comebacks, but this was a headline contest that lived up to its official billing as a heavyweight clash, with two teams expected to do well in 2022 taking each other on and exchanging blows in a thrilling contest.
The scoring was opened in the 11th minute by Brandon Smith, standing out in the number 23, after an offload from Josh King. But the Eels hit back quickly after Dylan Brown put on one of his trademark steps to round Jahrome Hughes before feeding it back inside for Clint Gutherson.
Brown was provider once again soon after, with a cut-out ball sent left to Waqa Blake. Blake saw Ryan Papenhuyzen in front of him but wouldn't be stopped, putting on a huge fend to take the lead.
The Eels looked set to take a lead to the break, but their defence was caught short on the right by a quick Melbourne move and Nick Meaney found himself in acres of space to cross the line.
Hostilities continued after the break, with the next try seemingly coming from nothing after Cameron Munster collected a horrible pass on the half-volley on the 40m line, taking a moment before putting a hefty chip kick out to the left, where Meaney was once again waiting to go over.
But the Eels weren't done, and 15 minutes later a simple Moses bomb was grabbed by centre Tom Opacic and scores were level again.
If Meaney's second was a strange try, what followed was even more strange. Ray Stone's attempt to catch a Moses bomb deflected straight into the face of Nelson Asofa-Solomona before bouncing into the in-goal, where it was leapt upon by Ray Stone.
The back-and-forth wasn't done, and when Brandon Smith broke the line and set up Ryan Papenhuyzen, we were destined for golden point and a field goal shootout.
After a strange contest it was never going to be a straightforward finish, but when Moses' last field goal attempt hit the upright, it fell fortuitously to Stone again, who stepped past Hughes with ease to score one of the most thrilling victories of the year.
