NRLW Finals AS IT HAPPENED: Roosters veteran Sam Bremner stars with quick-fire double to set up grand final clash with Sharks

Thanks for joining us in the blog!

Next weekend will see the Roosters take on the Sharks in the grand final.

Higgins crosses for a late consolation try, catching her rivals napping from a penalty.

It doesn't bring a halt to the Roosters celebrations however, with the star-studded side into the NRLW grand final next weekend.

"It still hasn't sunk in yet," Sam Bremner told Nine post-game.

Aiken kicks a field-goal to put the Roosters ahead by 15 points.

Newcastle collect a short kick off in return, but the hosts hold them out once again.

Upton gives a penalty away for a high shot on Davis, but the pair embrace afterwards.

Knights get another chance in good-ball territory, but Elliott comes up with a massive hit to force an error and this one is all-but over now.

"That was a good old-fashioned hospital pass," Andrew Johns said on Nine.

An error from Newcastle in their own end leads to a bit of a melee between the sides.

Upton throws a horrible pass over the sideline, but they challenge the decision.

Newcastle receive a penalty for a late tackle on Southwell and they take advantage of it, keeping their slim hopes of victory alive.

Upton puts McEwen through a hole to score, but they still need three more tries.

Abigail Roche palms off Parker with a huge stiff-arm to get her side into enemy territory.

Kelly leaves the field for an early shower with the Roosters closing in on the win.

Newcastle's field position fails to deliver much-needed points, with Southwell's grubber kick travelling over the dead-ball line.

"She got her angles all wrong there," Andrew Johns said on Nine.

Roosters almost make them pay through an Aiken grubber kick, but Willison grounds the ball in the in-goal and the Knights - barely - survive.

"It's grounded with downward pressure for sure," Johns said.

Albert-Jones makes a break but her attempted grubber kick is defused as Kelly comes up with a desperation moment in cover defence.

This is becoming an end-to-end battle and Fressard almost seals the deal for the Chooks, but she is taken into touch by the Knights defenders.

Fressard gets absolutely monstered in a tackle by Tinao.

"That was timing at its best," Andrew Johns said on Nine.

Kelleher nails a 40/20 to keep the Roosters in complete control.

Unfortunately, a poor pass from Aiken hits the deck and rolls over the sideline.

Newcastle are still in this, but hanging on by a thread with 25 minutes to go.

Upton makes a break, but Bremner comes up with a try-saving tackle.

Albert-Jones tries to burrow her way over from dummy-half but is held up.
