The Raiders and Sharks have both confirmed their final 17 ahead of their qualifying final clash at GIO Stadium on Saturday night.

There are no late changes for the home side, with the Raiders 1-17. Paul Vaughan drops off the extended bench named mid-week.

In a huge blow for the Sharks, captain Paul Gallen has been ruled out with a back injury. Jayson Bukuya will start at lock, with Kurt Capewell coming onto the final bench.
