One man who won't be there is star halfback Nathan Cleary, but the club are hopeful he'll return from his latest shoulder injury for the first week of finals action.
"He’s doing okay," coach Ivan Cleary said ahead of his side’s clash with the Rabbitohs.
"That’s the hope [Cleary will return in week one of the finals].
"He definitely won’t be back for [round 27 against the Titans]."
Unfortunately for young playmaker Jack Cole, his season appears over following a hip-drop tackle in NSW Cup.
"He’s in a bad way because it was an awful tackle," Cleary said.
"Unfortunately, it’s just the way our season has gone, in that sense.
"It’s unlikely Jack will be lacing the boots on again this year."
