Minor Preliminary Semi-Final, 1992 NRL finals series: Newcastle Knights 21–2 Western Suburbs Magpies, at Sydney Football Stadium, Sydney, NSW on 5 Sep 1992.
Sourcing caveat: Confirmed named scorers total Newcastle 12 of 21 points — a 9-point gap that is not a clean multiple of tries (4) and goals (2), and no field goal was recorded on the source, so the composition of the missing points is genuinely unclear rather than a simple missing-try case; reported as an unresolved discrepancy rather than guessed.
