The final round of the Shute Shield regular season will be played over the weekend ahead of a three week finals series, culminating in grand final day at Leichhardt Oval on Saturday August 26.

While the top five sides have secured their playoff spots, there is still a lot to play for in the final round as teams try to build confidence and play their way into the best possible fixture on the opening week of the playoffs.

Gordon, Sydney Uni and Western Sydney are also in a three way battle for sixth position.

Here’s what this weekend’s results will mean for your side.

1st) Norths: 62 pts, 13 wins - Home v Hunter

Norths are guaranteed to finish in the top two and may choose to rest players this weekend ahead of a brutal three week sprint towards grand final day.
