WESTS TIGERS VS SOUTH SYDNEY RABBITOHS PREDICTION
Heading into the weekend, Wests Tigers are four points adrift at the bottom of the NRL table with last week’s 34-18 defeat at the hands of the Newcastle Knights their seventh loss in succession. The wooden spoon beckons for the Sydney outfit, who are clearly lacking in both belief and motivation as the regular season enters its final stages.
Things aren’t a whole lot better for the Rabbitohs however, with Ben Hornby’s side having won just one of their last five contests. It would take something heroic for them to force themselves into the top eight at this stage, but they can at least give themselves a glimmer of hope with victory against a forlorn Tigers side.
