Sharks Tarsha Gale coach Andrew Fifita has named his squad for Sunday's preliminary final against the Knights at Leichhardt Oval.
Cronulla's Under 19 women earned a break last week after defeating the minor premiership-winning Indigenous Academy Roosters to open the playoffs.
Newcastle – who finished the regular season in sixth place before beating the Steelers and Bulldogs – stand between the Sharks and the grand final.
Cronulla will be led by prodigious hooker Koffi Brookfield (pictured above), who knows what it takes to win big games having claimed back-to-back NSW Women's Premiership titles – first with the Steelers, then with the Sharks last season.
The match will kick off at 2.30pm, with a live stream via BarTV Sports.
