Already battling a cork to his leg, Trbojevic had his arm outstretched trying to tackle Jacob Preston in the 64th minute, before teammate Luke Brooks landed on him.

Manly were confident afterwards the injury was confined to the AC joint, and Trbojevic would be able to play in the finals with pain-killing injections.

The 27-year-old will undergo scans on Saturday, which Manly hope will show no immediate surgery is required and he will only need to sit out one week against Cronulla.

Trbojevic has been playing his best football since his Dally M year of 2021, scoring 10 tries and setting up 11 in his past seven games.
