They will have the week off before they take on Marrar in another vital game for their finals hopes.
The Jets have recruited shooter Alice Clark this season.
"It's pretty exciting that hopefully we will make the top five. The vibe of our team, it's been a good team effort and pushing right through for the whole 60 minutes," McLean said.
"There's three or four of us back from last year. We've got a new shooter (Clark) into the team and she's made quite quite a difference.
"I've roped in my sister (Jacinta McLean) to play for us in defence, and hopefully my other sister Keisha will come back from ACL surgery later in the year into our midcourt."
