THE TEAM NEWS

BRISBANE BRONCOS

  • Brisbane Broncos maintained their position at the top of the ladder with their seventh win of the campaign thanks to seeing off Parramatta Eels last week.
  • The Broncos will be aiming to increase their lead at the summit but face a difficult matchup here, especially as they have lost key man Payne Haas to a ban while Ezra Mam has also copped a suspension which will force a change in the halves.

Starting 13: Walsh, Arthars, Staggs, Farnworth, Cobbo, Madden, Reynolds, Flegler, Walters, Palasia, Capewell, Riki, Carrigan – Interchanges: Paix, Jensen, Hetherington, Taupau – Reserves: Mariner, Piakura, Willison, Hoeter, Pereira

Unavailable: Corey Oates (Injured), Payne Haas (Suspended), Ezra Mam (Suspended)

SOUTH SYDNEY RABBITOHS

  • South Sydney Rabbitohs produced a brilliant late fightback to stun reigning premiers Penrith Panthers last week as they made it three successive victories.
  • The Rabbits have shown some real quality in their last few outings and are boosted here with the return of prop Tevita Tatola who comes straight into the starting line-up.

Starting 13: L. Mitchell, Johnston, Tass, Graham, Milne, Walker, Ilias, Tatola, Cook, Arrow, Chee Kam, Host, Murray – Interchanges: Cartwright, Moale, Sele, Burgess – Reserves: Suluka-Fifita, Taaffe, Karapani, Lovett, Hawkins

Unavailable: Liam Knight (Injured), Siliva Havili (Injured), Shaquai Mitchell (Injured), Keaon Koloamatangi (Injured), Izaac Tu’itupou Thompson (Injured)

THE PREDICTION

This is a huge game between two teams in the top four as Brisbane Broncos host South Sydney Rabbitohs. The home side have been brilliant this season, losing just one of their eight matches to date while the Bunnies are starting to come into form having won their last three. They defeated reigning premiers Penrith Panthers thanks to showing some excellent character late in that game and with the team news for this working in the favour of the away side, the Rabbits can capitalise on some disciplinary strife for the Broncos to come away with the win.
