FOX Sports and FOX Footy are tossing on the wigs and beads for a Retro-themed week of NRL and AFL.

Retro Round will celebrate the late 70s through to the early 90s and pay tribute to the legends that made the games they are today.

Highlights across the NRL week will include a trip down memory lane with Peter Sterling and former Eels teammates Steve Edge, Peter Wynn, Eric Grothe and Brett Kenny, to reflect on the club’s glory days in an On the Couch with Sterlo special. Then on Sunday, the old is the new when Steve ‘Blocker’ Roach, Graeme Hughes, and Wayne Pearce return to the commentary box to call Sunday’s Manly v Knights clash.

AFL fans have plenty to look forward to with FOX Footy’s longest-running program, On The Couch, bringing back the original panel of Gerard Healy, Robert Walls and Mike Sheahan for the themed round. Plus a Retro Round Table special hosted by Sandy Roberts and featuring some of the greatest names to ever play the game, Robert DiPierdomenico, Doug Hawkins, Peter Bosustow, Kevin Sheedy, Stephen Kernahan, Andrew Bews, Dale Weightman and Justin Madden.
