South Sydney may sit just outside the NRL’s top four, but you’d be hard-pressed to find anyone outside of Redfern who rates them as a genuine premiership contender.
After a blistering 10-1 start, the Rabbitohs have lost seven of their last ten – the worst of which arguably being a try-less loss to the Bulldogs at ANZ Stadium on the weekend.
