JARROD Harbrow will miss Gold Coast's final round match against Port Adelaide on Saturday night with a broken hand.
Harbrow is one of just two Suns players – alongside stand-in skipper Tom Lynch – to have played all 21 games to date.
He has had an excellent season and will be sorely missed by a Gold Coast outfit limping to the finish line.

Fellow defender Sean Lemmens will also miss the match after suffering concussion in Saturday night's 71-point loss to Collingwood.
Lemmens, stuck on 49 games, has not passed any of the concussion tests early this week.
The club has also confirmed star midfielder David Swallow simply has hamstring tightness, suffered in a NEAFL game at the weekend - just his second outing for the year.
"For David, only really minor hamstring tightness," general manager of football operations Marcus Ashcroft said.
"No point in risking him for the last week so he won’t play in either form this weekend."
