Meanwhile, Sharks halfback Brett Kimmorley today said he would not be back for another three weeks, putting Cronulla's bid at a last ditch finals bid in doubt.
The Sharks sit ninth on the ladder with a 9-10 record and arguably the hardest finish to the regular season - against Brisbane (home), the Sydney Roosters (away), Parramatta (home), Melbourne (home) and North Queensland (away).
A Sharks spokesman today said fullback David Peachey (quadriceps) was a "certainty" of playing this weekend against the Broncos.
Sharks CEO Steve Rogers said the club hoped Kimmorley would be available for round 22.
"He won't be playing this week so we are hopeful for possibly the week after - we are certainly not going to risk him," Rogers said.
"If he comes back a week early and he damages it we could lose him for the rest of the year - we've got to be 100 per cent confident about it."
The Sharks will welcome back the recently re-signed Greg Bird from a three-week ban while Matt Hilder (calf), Matt Bickerstaff (elbow) and Phil Bailey (foot) have been cleared to play.
