THE PREDICTION

South Sydney Rabbitohs suffered a huge blow in their quest to make a late push for the top four as they were edged in a golden point thriller against Cronulla Sharks last week. The Rabbits were not helped in the additional period with Tom Burgess receiving his marching orders which played its part in Souths losing for the first time in five matches. They will be hoping to bounce back immediately as they host New Zealand Warriors and they will be confident of doing so against a side with just one win to their name in their last 11 matches. The Warriors produced a solid effort in their home game with Melbourne Storm last week but they ultimately fell short and it is unlikely that they will be able to match that level of performance back on the road against a team they have lost to on six occasions in-a-row so expect the Rabbits to run out big winners, covering the -17.5 handicap.
