Well here we are Game Day is here back at home Round 8 for ANZAC round. Just our third home game of the year as well shame it’s a Thursday night but all us diehards will be out there in full voice. And what an assignment it is we take on the benchmark of the last 2-3 years and a team who is still probs the benchmark a juggernaut in the Panthers. Hate isn’t a word we use lightly but we have grown a fierce rivalry with the Panthers and I’m sure I speak for most Souths members in that we despise them and everything about them their smugness and their utter arrogance we have just had a gutful of it. They are one hell of a team and have beat us 10 of the last 11 times. For us we have had a tough draw to start but we have had two lesser games last two weeks and prevailed in those without playing the full 80mins. We seem to be building into the season and tonight is a test that probs comes at the right time to where we are really at. Boy we’d all love a win at home tonight many of us will have tears in our eyes I think of we can somehow pull it off!
Looking at Penrith they have strike as we know everywhere and they seem to never get tired. Edwards at the back never stops and makes massive metres as do their wingers To’o and Turuva. They are strong in the centres as well and of course Cleary and Luai in the halves. And in the forwards they’re still very strong. So we need to be on our game right from the start if we start the first 25mins slow we will have our pants pulled down. We need to be right on song in our effort areas line speed, kick chase etc…. Our back 3 need to defuse the Cleary kicks as best they can I don’t think we can afford to let those bombs bounce. All areas of our game have to be on and we need to come with the right attitude. As JD said yesterday there will be times in this game where our backs are against the wall deep underwater and it’s about how we react to that work for another play the Rabbitohs way about focussing on us and what we can do. We will have to dig very deep. Our kicking game needs to be better than it has been as well and we need to be patient in attack and respect the ball otherwise they’ll make us pay.
Ok not long til the players make their way onto Accor Stadium tonight as our 5th placed South Sydney Rabbitohs take on the 2nd placed Penrith Panthers. Great to see so much red and green in the stands on a Thursday Night let’s get that South Sydney chant up a running around Accor Stadium. Let’s make sure Penrith and everyone watching at home knows that this is South Sydney home turf and a South Sydney home game. Lets do everything we can to help the boys get those 2 vital competition points tonight and move into the top 4!
Ok ladies and gentleman please be up standing and welcome the players of both sides onto Accor Stadium for a special pre kick off ANZAC Day ceremony as we thank all they did for us we will have the last post followed by a moments silence…………….
