The battle for the final place in the NRL finals is underway, with two crucial games to continue Round 26. 

First, St George Illawarra will take on Parramatta, with the eighth-placed Dragons still in control of their own destiny. They can remain at the head of the pack should they down the struggling Eels. 

Later on, the Broncos will play the Dolphins in the latest battle of Brisbane, the loser of which will be officially eliminated from the finals race. 

Finally, Cronulla will host the Warriors in Shaun Johnson’s final NRL game.
