Well here we are HERE WE GO! If you’d have said halfway through the year Souths would make the prelim no one would have believed you. Yet here we are what a second half of the season we have had storming home. Regardless of what happens tonight I am so proud of our club it’s been a fantastic ride everyone has given it everything and what a job JD has done in his first year as head coach. Every moment from last November at start of pre season has led to now another crack at it in such a massive moment against a team that we have had a fierce rivalry with the last few years a team that has been the benchmark in the Panthers. It’s time for revenge it’s time to get one back on these guys it’s time to remember all the pain we felt after that GF last year against these and the pain of the 2020 prelim. It is time to turn that into positive energy and to dig as deep as we can. Mum was saying to me she heard something that the great Johnny Sattler (as we know he’s very unwell) said someone quoted him on radio and that’s you have to be willing to die for this jersey THIS IS WAR and we have to dig extremely deep tonight defend like our lives depend on it. No one gives us a chance tonight everywhere you look or listen Penrith this Penrith that and that’s just how we like it being the underdogs we will need to draw on that South Sydney grit and determination I believe in these boys we have such a special group. What’s important is we control that emotion though and stay focussed on the job at hand.
Looking at Penrith as much as we cant stand these filthy arrogant pricks they are one hell of a team. Strike everywhere in Edwards, To’o, S. Crichton, Cleary, Luai, Api, JFH, Yeo, Kikau, Martin etc..... they are so well drilled and can turn it one from anywhere on the field so we can’t afford to fall asleep in defence at any point. We need to slow the ruck down as best we can and put pressure on Cleary especially with his brilliant kicking game. But we can’t just focus on that as someone else can pull off a massive play in a split second. For us we have a few out in Tom, AJ and Havili but I have faith in the guys coming in to do the job. What we did not have last 2 finals series was Trell this year we have him and we need a massive one from him tonight and from Cody too. It all starts off Murray though and I’m sure he will look to lead the way. We need massive games from all our pack as well. We need to match Penrith though in enthusiasm and cant get bogged down in our own end otherwise Cody and Trell cant do their thing. No doubt we have to take some risk and throw the ball around but we need to limit the errors we can’t make 15 errors like last week otherwise Penrith will hammer us. We must be clinical in all areas of our game not giving cheap penalties either and our kick chase needs to be bang on. I hope our back 3 have been practising because we will be under an aerial assault from Cleary.
Back at Accor we are tonight and I’m certain we will have 60percent of the crowd so we have a job to do to urge the boys on as well to make as much noise as we can let the boys know we are right there with them. Lets do all we can to get that extra penalty or six again. The boys have spoken about what a lift the crowd has given them the last 2 weeks well tonight I’m expecting over 50,000 and a sea of red and green. Most of all let’s just enjoy the build up into tonight. My nerves are building rapidly but we have to soak it all up too our 5th prelim in a row and as I said earlier nobody expected us to be here they all wrote us off and that just adds more fuel to our fire and motivation.
AS OF 7:47PM TONIGHT WHETHER AT THE GAME OR AT A MATES PLACE OR WHETHER YOU LIVE INTERSTATE OVERSEAS AS AN INTERNATIONAL RABBITOHS MEMBER EVERYONE ON YOUR FEET TONIGHT AT 7:47PM!!!

The 2023 NRL season will be the earliest kick-off in 22-years, lasting 31 weeks and in a major shock for fans, every club will have three byes.
In a massive win for fans, the regular season will be run over 27 rounds with four weeks of finals.
Thursday night March 2 next year - one week earlier than the kick-off date of this current season - is the opening round launch date that every club has been told to prepare for.
Pre-season matches are poised to formally begin on the weekend of February 10-12 with staging of the NRL’s Indigenous and Maori All Stars clash in Rotorua, on top of every club’s first official trial matches.
The annual Charity Shield between South Sydney and St George-Illawarra, as well as a second weekend of club trial matches, is being slated by the NRL for February 17-19.
Every club will be given a weekend off from footy on February 24-26 in order to rest before the season-proper commences on March 2. (DT)

Any details of how the draw will work?
27 rounds, 3 byes each… 15 rounds with 8 games, 12 with 7 is the “flattest” structure you can do. But I imagine it be bye heavy around Origin - so mainly 8 game rounds but some 4/5/6 game rounds during rep footy
I think we’re going to need 25 player squads or playing with less than 17 regularly will be a game feature

Forgot to add this bit: State of Origin will be played across three straight Wednesday’s with no Thursday night NRL games scheduled that week.
To increase the chance of recovery for the game’s elite, the NRL are also investigating shifting the 6pm Friday night game to a Sunday afternoon in the week of a State of Origin match.
Due to the complexities of the 2023 season draw, the NRL are unlikely to release the finished product until late November.

I assume they have some idea if they've decided the number of rounds/byes
But in terms of what could happen;
2006 (15 teams), was a 26 round comp, each week had one bye, except rounds 11 & 17 had three byes each.
Then there's years like 2017 that was also 26 rounds, didn't have the rep round, but each team had 3 byes. It was structured as:
R12 8 teams with bye
R13 2 teams with bye
R15 8 teams with bye
R16 2 teams with bye
R18 8 teams with bye
R19 4 teams with bye
With an odd number of teams and 27 rounds, I'm expecting some sort of hybrid of the two (any chance to use the word hybrid).
Obviously will need to have one team on the bye each round (using 27 of 51 byes), then 3 rounds with 8 additional teams on byes?
Maybe something like that?
