Ruthless Rabbitohs send warning to finals rivals after leaping over Eels | mrchrisnico
Around the same time Cody Walker was diving over to score late in the game, Billy Slater was in the Nine commentary box discussing the merits of South Sydney’s premiership chances.
Rabbitohs winger Alex Johnston bagged another try-scoring double. Latrell Mitchell produced plenty of rampaging moments that will make the highlights reel. Walker was brilliant, while captain Murray was the absolute star. It is a tough run home, but Friday night’s performance was just the kind of blowout coach Jason Demetriou will cherish. Like his old predecessor Wayne Bennett, Demetriou has his team starting to hum at the right time of year.They welcome back Campbell Graham and Tom Burgess next Thursday from injury, while Lachlan Ilias was a late scratching because of an old back issue that flared up late in the game last weekend against the Warriors.
There was no reason to check impressive rookie winger Izaac Thompson’s effort soon after as Souths kicked out to a 10-0 lead. “We lacked physicality,” Eels coach Brad Arthur said. “If you’re not going to be physical, it doesn’t matter who you’re playing, you’re not going to give yourself a chance. We lacked it, badly ... we got steamrolled.”
