The Battle of the North between Gordon and Northern Suburbs at Chatswood Oval highlights an enthralling round of action in the Shute Shield on Saturday.

This game is a genuine top of the table clash with the Highlanders some points clear at the top end of the ladder and Norths sitting nicely in second place.

It would normally have been the 7TWO TV match of the round but problems with Chatswood Oval and their grandstand have meant that the cameras will be at the Sydney Uni v Randwick match.

The other games in Round 10 action are Manly v Eastern Suburbs at Manly Oval, Eastwood v Penrith at TG Millner and Southern Districts v Hunter Wildfires at Forhsaw.

The Warringah v Two Blues game that will played for the 'Noddy' Sawtell Cup will finish off the round.

Here's how the games are shaping:
