Big out for the Rabbitohs with Cody Walker ruled out for the rest of the season, with a calf injury.

4

Cleary and Yeo rested this week. Tago suspended, and Martin still recovering from hand injury.

I do hope this doesn’t backfire on us (sorry but that Bathurst game still haunts me).

Alamoti coming in for Tago, and Sorensen back for Martin will help a lot. If we can channel the attitude & performance we showed against the Warriors, we should go all right.

It is important that the team ignores the odds and do not get complacent. The game is not won, until it is over.

Exactly, HP. I think it was Warren Ryan who suggested that “you show me a team of players coming off contract and I’ll show you a winning team”. Attitude wins games.

Way too many souths supporters in the parramatta branch of the leagues club.

10

Doing this comfortably. Just need to make sure we don’t pick up any injuries or suspensions.

11

A good win, we can only play against who our opponent is, but although a comfortable win, we rarely got out of 2nd gear.

Thought Garner and Sorro were awesome on our edges. Our middles again were ruthless in their defense, and our outside backs shined.

What a game from Dyl! Easily motm for me!

No one let us down, things are sure looking up.

I hope To’o is ok
