Now she's doing her scales and arpeggios, as Souths strike again through Paulo.

[JohnM]

They are done, I'm afraid. Whitewash.

[Futtocks]

This is going to require an epic arf time talk from Des.

[EastLondonMike]

Bad read in defence really helped them there, but the Rabbits do look really good tonight.

[Graham]

Taaffe from touchline…

misses this time.

22-0 Bunnies

[Futtocks]

Nice kick-off from DCE, giving them good possession. No time to do anything with it, though.

Illustrated one of my pet theories. i.e. if teams used various types of short kick-off throughout the game, they`d get at least a 50% return.

Only downside now is that when the ball goes over the touchline it`s a slow-motion PTB rather than a scrum. Terrible, dreadful rule. The NRL are supposed to be reviewing this year`s rule changes. Fervently hope that one will be reversed.
