The Rhinos attack will also be bolstered by the form of Chris Pyle, who took out the MVCA’s C-grade Cricketer of The Year Award, among others, on Wednesday night.
There is one more item to tick off the list - a grand final win.
Finley has been in good form with both ball and bat, but the Rhinos have been gaining momentum week after week.
The Deni side is confident heading into the match, and expect a nail biter of a game between the two teams.
The battle will be played on the Finley Cats’ turf, starting at 1pm tomorrow.

C-grade Rhinos player profiles:
Anthony Bradley: An opening batsman who has had more soft tissue injuries than runs this year. He will be hoping to repeat the runs scored in the semi-final last weekend, and more, for Saturday’s match.
Tom McCallum: Very patient and reliable opening batsman. He has been fantastic behind the stumps this year and will be vital again this week.
Chris Pyle: C-grade Cricketer of the Year 2023. Not much else needs to be said. Can win the game with either bat or ball.
Noah Bradley: Youngster who has taken the new ball all year, and who is also important batting at number four each week.
Jake Herberte: One of three under-16s boys who have been outstanding with the ball all year. Jake has the ability to take multiple wickets in quick succession.
Tim Hillier: Another old boy who stood up in the semi-final. Todd Murphy-like with his off spinners and an important lower order batsman.
Rana Aslam: Very under rated bowler who has experience in the premier grade side this year. Loves the two-piece ball when it’s hooping around.
Andrew Holloway: Team veteran who always gets the important wickets. Sometimes we think he only plays for the free afternoon tea.
Sam Dudley: Has been unbelievable in recent weeks with three run outs. Loves to swing hard and hit boundaries.
Andrew Smith: An under-16s player who as been used in a variety of roles this year. Bowls great out swingers, sometimes wicket keeps and handy lower order bat.
Hamish Baker: Another under-16s player who has had premier grade experience this season. Has come along in leaps and bounds with both bat and ball.
Stephen Marshall: Mr Fix it with his handy lower order runs in recent weeks. Always goes 100MPH when in the field with a lethal right arm.
