DIFFERENT KIND OF RABBIT

There are a meagre 4 points separating the 4th placed Eels from the 12th placed Rabbitohs, leading into round 18 of the NRL.

The famous green and red stripes are no longer an embarrassment to the league; they are an inspiration. A culture is building at the club, a culture that has been lacking for decades. It seems there is pride growing in the jersey and the tradition and history, it represents.




For the first time in a generation they have a realistic chance of seeing football in September. Victory over the stuttering Eels would more than likely place the drummer boys into the top 8. With a reasonable run home South Sydney could cause a boil-over by making the finals.

At the beginning of the season it would have been laughable to suggest both Titans and Souths would still be there in September, but in a strange competition where consistency has been rare (in any shape or form) it would almost seem fitting that these sides slip past their more fancied rivals. It is nice to see an underdog achieving and trying something a little different.


After all, this is a rejuvenated Green and Red army, a new breed, one which hopes to bring the glory days back to South Sydney. The club is juggling two roles at once; honouring the past and trumpeting the future. The jersey is the same, but it surely is a different kind of rabbit!
