THE TEAM NEWS

SOUTH SYDNEY RABBITOHS

  • South Sydney Rabbitohs saw their six-game winning streak come to an end as they were comfortably beaten by Parramatta Eels in what was a disappointing outing last week.
  • After performing so well of late, things didn’t quite click on the night and the Rabbits know they will have to be much better here, although they will be without State of Origin trio Latrell Mitchell, Jai Arrow and Cameron Murray.

Starting 13: Taaffe, Johnston, Tass, Graham, Milne, Walker, Ilias, Tatola, Cook, Sele, Chee Kam, Host, Knight – Interchanges: Cartwright, Duncan, S. Mitchell, Suluka-Fifita – Reserves: Kennar, Munro, Mamouzelos, Koloamatangi, Hawkins

Unavailable: Siliva Havili (Injured), Davvy Moale (Injured), Thomas Burgess (Injured), Cameron Murray (Origin), Jai Arrow (Origin), Latrell Mitchell (Origin)

CANBERRA RAIDERS

  • Canberra Raiders were comprehensively beaten by Manly Sea Eagles last week with that result ending their five-game winning run in emphatic fashion.
  • The Raiders will need to produce a strong showing if they are to bounce back here but will be hampered by the loss of Hudson Young to an Origin call-up while Elliott Whitehead is banned.

Starting 13: Kris, Hopoate, Croker, Timoko, Rapana, Wighton, Fogarty, Papali’i, Woolford, Saulo, Harawira-Naera, Horsburgh, Tapine – Interchanges: Starling, Guler, Cotric, Maritoa – Reserves: Puru, Levi, Frawley, Smith-Shields, Hola

Unavailable: Adrian Trevilyan (Injured), Elliott Whitehead (Suspended) Hudson Young (Origin)

THE PREDICTION

South Sydney Rabbitohs and Canberra Raiders both saw their respective winning runs come to an end last week. The Rabbitohs were beaten for the first time in seven matches as Parramatta Eels toppled them while the Raiders went down to Manly Sea Eagles in what was their first loss in six. Both are capable of bouncing back here but South Sydney will have more to prove on home soil and while they are missing some key players through Origin call-ups, they still have enough quality to get the job done.
