THE TEAM NEWS

SOUTH SYDNEY RABBITOHS

  • South Sydney Rabbitohs claimed their first win of the season as they overcame Canterbury Bulldogs but were perhaps fortunate to do so with their opponents wasting numerous chances to post points.
  • The Bunnies will be desperate to build on that victory but will be without prolific winger Alex Johnston while Shaquai Mitchell is also missing through injury.

Starting 13: 1. Latrell Mitchell 2. Izaac Tu'itupou Thompson 3. Jack Wighton 4. Isaiah Tass 5. Taane Milne 6. Cody Walker 7. Dean Hawkins 8. Tevita Tatola 9. Damien Cook 10. Thomas Burgess 11.

NEW ZEALAND WARRIORS

  • New Zealand Warriors made it back-to-back successes as they overcame Newcastle Knights but will now aim to win in Australia for the first time this season.
  • Luke Metcalf has been ruled out for much of the season with a leg fracture but in a huge boost for the Kiwi outfit, fullback Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad is named for the first time this year.

Starting 13: 1. Charnze Nicoll-Klokstad 2. Dallin Watene-Zelezniak 3. Rocco Berry 4. Roger Tuivasa-Sheck 5. Marcelo Montoya 6. Te Maire Martin 7. Shaun Johnson 8. Addin Fonua-Blake 9. Wayde Egan 10. Mitchell Barnett 11. Jackson Ford 12. Marata Niukore 13. Tohu Harris Bench: 14. Freddy Lussick 15. Tom Ale 16. Bunty Afoa 17. Jazz Tevaga Reserves: 18. Adam Pompey 20. Jacob Laban 21. Chanel Harris-Tavita 22. Edward Kosi 23. Ali Leiataua

THE PREDICTION

South Sydney Rabbitohs found a way to win for the first time this season but this will be a real test for them as they aim to go back-to-back. New Zealand Warriors will be formidable opponents for them and could be a real threat with them boasting some brilliant talent in the backs. The Bunnies will need to improve on last week’s effort if they are to get the win and while they are capable of doing so, preference is with the Warriors in this one.

TIP: NEW ZEALAND WARRIORS TO WIN
