Since the National Rugby League was formed in 1998 a total of 4,152 Games have been played (upto 2018 NRL GF), but how many different scorelines have occurred during the first 20 years of the unified competition (596 in case your were wondering).

​

Inspired by a youtube video discussing the history of NFL scores and whats possible and not possible i decided to go through every game of the NRL from the first game in 1998 between the Adelaide Rams and North QLD Cowboys all the way to the 2018 Grand Final between the Sydney Roosters and Melbourne Storm. It was a lot of work but it was interesting to see what scorelines have occurred and also which ones haven't.
