The Blacks have had two weeks break after qualifying for the grand final by defeating Wanderers 20-10 in the major semi-final.

A blend of experienced and young players, the Blacks meet Merewether Carlton in the decider and will have no injury problems.

Merewether qualified after hard fought two-point wins against University in the minor semi-final and last week’s preliminary final against Wanderers.

Saturday’s third grade grand final kicks off at 11.30am at Newcastle No. 2 Sportsground.
