    I suppose as long as ELKIN doesn't tell WBs woman to "get f---ed" he should be fine !!

    Your Favourite Rabbitoh (all time)

    I remember being at Redfern Oval midweek back in the 50s where Sths were playing Easts in a sudden death play-off game to scrape into the top 4 /semi finals--the scores were locked up in the last couple of minutes of the match with Sths on the attack---Churchill asked for the ball then put up an...

    Churchill would be an absolute champion today at 5/8[or 1/2] if playing in today's game !! Extremely clever ball player & kicker !!

    Your Favourite Rabbitoh (all time)

    As a kid I watched Clive CHURCHILL a fair bit---he was that good that he controlled games like a puppeteer---in many games it seemed he was in charge of both teams--he was steps ahead of all players on the field !!

    Your Favourite Rabbitoh (all time)

    Paul SAIT---in 1969 he made the NSW team from 2nd grade---after the state game he returned to the seconds--Sths were so strong back then that Paul had to bide his time to become a permanent 1st grader--very classy ball player--very tough-- excelled in all positions in the pigs except...

    Souths need a clean out

    If Churchill was a full-time pro today---with the equal opportunities that today's players get ,he would be a much better FB , 1/2 or 5/8 than any of today's posers, including Cleary !! Churchill has been voted the best over & over again & with very,very good reason !!

    Souths need a clean out

    I said given all the advantages---the props were smaller because they weren't in the gym 5 days a week & on diets designed to make them bigger & stronger---Artie BEETSON could/would run only 20 or 30 metres himself but he was skilful enough to create 500 ms for his team-mates---much,much more...

    Souths need a clean out

    The players in the 50s & 60s didn't have the advantage of being fulltime pros--most of those guys worked at real jobs---they weren't earning ridiculous amounts of money back then either---given all the advantages these players get today the Sths & Saints teams of those eras would have killed...

    Rabbitohs Rumors, Signings and News

    He's just a beautiful, naturally talented athlete--he was an excellent cricketer too in high school scoring a double century in a school game !! TBH,I reckon he's one of our most valuable players---it's possible, I suppose though,that his serious injury could be a concern !! If all goes...

    Rabbitohs Rumors, Signings and News

    AJ was re-signed at the end of 2021 because he'd scored 30 tries that season--he scored 30 in 2022 as well--only the second player to achieve that feat for Sths[Les Brennan was the earlier winger to do that]---admittedly he only scored a paltry 21 tries in 2023--he is injured now but will still...

    2024 Grand final Panthers vs Storm

    The NRL really put themselves in a bad posse when they appoint a ref like ATKINS in the Bunker when the Panthers are playing a GF---I do believe,however, that he would be a fair & honest ref but he did learn his trade refereeing in the Panthers system--in fact,he was given a life m/ship by the...
