2021 Rabbitohs Rumours, Signings And News

[Travitoh]

I am sure diehards of both clubs chat and have banter in the streets. At the games as well the atmosphere is always a notch up on other games.

I highlight this because it contradicts the war comparison. If the rivalry was anything like war, this would not happen.

I've been to Leeds v Bradford, Leeds v Huddersfield where the police literally need to sheppard one set of supporters away from the others while they both hurl objects at each other. I've been to Glasgow when the Old Firm played, felt the tension in the city and witnessed the ugliness of it in the streets. There is no banter or chat between the supporters.

What you describe is exactly what it is. A rivalry. And a great rivalry at that. There is history, emotion, betrayel, competition, it has it all. The biggest in the NRL, yes but war? Not even close. Nothing in Australia is close thankfully because it is a shit side of sport that really, is f**king dumb.

David Nofoaluma is reportedly open to talking to other clubs for 2022 and beyond. Would be an outstanding signing, completing the back 3 if Souths could pull it off.

Yeah has to be the tamest war in the history of civilisation.

You don't hate people because of their footy team unless you're some European bogan or come from Yugoslavia.

You want to see war on the field watch some of the Souths-Eels and Souths-Manly brawls in the 80s.

We have rivalries with a lot of clubs including St George and Manly

Fun fact:

Honduras and El Salvador actually went to war over a soccer match in 69.

I remember going to a Souths v Manly match at Brookvale (not sure which year, ?1987) and when it broke out, it's was huge! Ian Roberts had Cliff Lyons pinned to the ground with his knees on Lyons' shoulders and absolutely pummled him. It'd be assault nowadays, but back then it was great!

Also saw live the Davidson-Roach punchup they sometimes on FOX. Man they were some HEAVY punches landed by both.

I cant figure it out sauce?
What about forwards

Here's the latest on Addo-Carr via Zero Tackle, jeez I hope it's true!

Rabbitohs back in the race for Storm star Addo-Carr

The South Sydney Rabbitohs are still in the hunt to sign Melbourne flyer Josh Addo-Carr for the 2022 season, per to The Daily Telegraph’s Phil Rothfield.

According to Rothfield’s sources, the Blues winger wants to play for the Rabbitohs along with close mates Cody Walker, Dane Gagai and Latrell Mitchell.

Addo-Carr was seen touring Belmore last week, with reports suggesting his trip to Canterbury was staged in an effort to warn Souths of serious interest away from Redfern.

The 25-year-old is understood to be happy to accept less money with the Rabbitohs, who will have 12 months to adjust their salary to accomodate Addo-Carr’s wages.

The Storm star will see out the 2021 season in Melbourne before likely moving home to Sydney, with Wests also joining Canterbury and South Sydney in pursuit for the speedster.

Lol what player goes by the name "sauce"? The forward may be "horsing" around. I will say no more at this stage

Is the forward horsing about in Canberra?

Mansour isn’t it? I’m sure his nickname is the “Sauce”

 

[Rabbits20]

We don’t need more forwards really except one for depth.

I think we may be 1 good/great winger short in our squad. In big games in 2021 if we have AJ and Allan/Paulo on the wings I have doubts whether or not they can make really big metres like a Nofoaluma or Tupou for example.

I like Gagai on the wing but we don’t have a quality centre I don’t think to allow him to play wing. Burns is very injury prone and young Marsters needs big work on his defence,.

I am sure we must have 1 or 2 young forwards coming through as well, I think Gardner is one and we have Tallis Duncan off the scum.
