Rugby league fans will see new faces hit the field for Round 25, as several clubs choose to rest their biggest stars for the finals.

NSW Blues coach Brad ‘Freddy’ Fittler anticipates an “intriguing” final round, with the eighth place slot yet to be decided.

“There’s plenty on, and it goes all the way to the second-last game,” he told Mark Levy.

“We’re going to see some new kids for the last round of the year, and also there’s so much at stake.”
