The Gold Coast SUNS reserves will play Sydney University at Blacktown International Sportspark next Saturday in an elimination final.

The SUNS clinched an unlikely finals berth in the last game of the season by overcoming Aspley by four points while fellow finals aspirant Southport fell to NT Thunder to allow Gold Coast to sneak into the top six.

The last time the two sides met was in round 11 when the Students recorded a 13-point win over the SUNS at Sydney’s Henson Park. Keegan Brooksby, Mackenzie Willis, Henry Schade, Aaron Hall and Mitch Hallahan were named in the best that day.
