The NRL will pay tribute to 26 retiring players during a star‑studded build‑up to the 2016 NRL Telstra Premiership Grand Final tonight.

Premiership winners, State of Origin and Test stars, and two members of the exclusive "300‑Club" will officially hang up their boots following the 2016 NRL Telstra Premiership.

They include Grand Final player Michael Ennis, as well as Corey Parker who has ended his career on 347 matches.

NRL CEO Todd Greenberg says the tribute to the retiring players is one of the real emotional moments of Grand Final Day.

The NRL grand final will be played between the Storm and the Sharks at 8.15 tonight.
