No changes as Klein remains grand final favourite: NRL preliminary finals, NRLW semi-finals referees

The NRL have confirmed Ashley Klein and Grant Atkins will remain on-field as referees for this weekend's preliminary finals.

Despite a continued public push for Adam Gee - who missed the opening weekend of the finals - to be appointed, it has fallen on deaf ears, with Klein and Atkins retaining their on-field places.

They will again be joined by Wyatt Raymond and Chris Butler as the bunker officials for the weekend ahead.

In the NRLW semi-finals, Belinda Sharpe and Ziggy Przeklasa-Adamski have won the race to officiate the semi-finals, and it now appears one of the duo will officiate the grand final next weekend at Homebush.

Here are all the NRL appointments for the weekend ahead.
