Meaney has a "split finger" and isn't coming back. Hopoate goes to FB.

Hello in your time and our time everyone.

[Farmduck]

Its Friday out here.

[Futtocks]

Good Good Friday morning, everyone.

[Farmduck]

Dreadful penalty after the Cory Allan run

[Lounge Room Lizard]

Wish the Refs would penalise the Dogs at the Ruck. They are messing around and laying on EVERY tackle. Its clear the game plan is to do this and stop Cook and they are often not onside neither.

Dogs are trying to win the Worst Set of Six two years running.

[Graham]

Two tired teams out there. Errors in handling and decision making by Dogs particularly  so they aren’t making the most of their chances.

If the Dogs just moved the ball side to side a couple of times I'm sure there would be a gap somewhere.

Great shot:

Therein lies the Dogs’ problems.

Still if they could wangle a try it would set up an interesting end to the game.

[Graham]

Poor quality from both sides . Tired attack and desperate defences are the order of the day.

Nothing special today from Bunnies but another win under their belts.

A no score second half!

Okay... park that one and move on after an hour or two to another game.

A very poor game that the Refs help contribute to. The Ruck was a joke especially from the Dogs and the Bunnies then just did the same.

Dogs absolutely clueless in attack. Great in defence and attitude, but They didnt even look like scoring. Support play seems to be a foreign concept for them.

Disappointing from the Bunnies. They fell in to the Dogs trap and allowed themselves to get frustrated. They just struggled in attack. Okunbor is positionally all over the place and surprised they didnt really put him under any pressure. Souths win, but was very average.

Morning (again) all. This the biggie on the NRL weekend, given the clubs' performances thus far. Looking forward to this!

[Farmduck]

5min: Latrell !!!!!!   40m move involving all the big Chook names = TRY

[Futtocks]

Cracking first try!

[Farmduck]

Converts his own try. Chooks  6 - 0

[Farmduck]

Vunivalu penalised for passing off the ground.  Latrell goal.  8 - 0

[Farmduck]

Looks like Taukeiaho must have been a late withdrawal replaced by Lindsay Collins with j. Curran coming onto the bench. (whoever he is)

[Futtocks]

Seen a couple of players' feet going from under them, and big stud scrapes in the turf, which isn't ideal.
