THE JOB is far from done.

That is the pact the Ipswich Jets have made after claiming the Intrust Super Cup on Sunday with a famous 32-20 win over the Townsville Blackhawks.

The NSW Cup champions, the Newcastle Knights, now await the Jets in Sydney on Sunday where the two clubs will do battle in the interstate challenge on NRL grand final day.

On Sunday night, co-coach Shane Walker ordered everyone other than players out of the inner sanctum of the dressing sheds.

The doors were closed for a good five minutes.

Something was said in there that will remain 'secret Jets business'.

But when Walker emerged he hinted at the theme of the discussion.

"We are going down there to Sydney to represent Queensland and Ipswich," he said.

"We aren't going down there just being happy with winning today.

"We are going down there to get the job done."

The Jets were enjoying a team lunch at the Regatta Hotel in Brisbane yesterday when we caught up with Walker again.

The mood was joyous, as you would expect.

But the fact that unfinished business awaits in Sydney was still front and centre of the agenda.

"Today we are having steak and a beer and enjoying the moment, then it is back to business at training tomorrow," Walker said.

"We are certainly savouring what we did yesterday but all along this group has wanted to get to Sydney and show how the Jets play."

The Jets celebrated appropriately in the Suncorp Stadium sheds on Sunday night.

Then it was all aboard the team bus for the trip back to join the Ipswich faithful in the world's greatest rugby league city.

The fans, appreciative of a maiden top grade title after a 33-year wait, gave the players a rapturous welcome.

"The highlight, and the boys were still talking about it today, was getting back to the (Jets) Leagues Club," Walker said.

"When the bus swung around the corner there were people out on the street and snaked all the way down through the club.

"As you know, the old Cecil (Hotel) building is long and it was just packed with people high fiving and delivering best wishes to the guys."

Kurt Capewell is unlikely to take part in the clash with the Knights on Sunday due to an ankle injury sustained in the grand final.

Shane said his brother's chances of playing on Sunday against the Knights rest with an exotic Fijian healing remedy, the secrets of which are known by the Jets' Fijian flyer Nemani Valekapa.

Peter Badel, who commentates Jets homes games alongside the larger than life Ben Dobbin for the Phoenix Radio call team, wrote in the Sunday Mail how Valekapa cures his injuries in quick time by applying what is known in his Fijian homeland as 'kawakawarau' leaves, which he obtains from the Gold Coast.

The injuries are healed after his wife massages Valekapa with coconut oil and applies the leaves and a bandage.

Shane said the injured duo's fate may well depend on them submitting to the powers of the magical plant.

"For Chris and Kurt to play they are going to need Nemani's wife to rub them down with coconut oil and wrap them in leaf," Shane grinned.
