Get as far as “The others land” (4,2,4)

I believe the answer is:

come to rest

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'get as far as the others land' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'get as far as the others' is the wordplay.
'get' becomes 'come' (synonyms).
'as far as' becomes 'to'.
'the others' becomes 'rest' (eg the rest of a group).
'come'+'to'+'rest'='COME TO REST'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for come to rest that I've seen before include "Halt; dock, alight" , "Recover - others" , "grind to a halt" , "stop" .)
