We really didn't need this bye next week just as we were starting to gather some momentum. Been looking at flights over for the weekend. Not sure if I will go yet though.

Perth Primed for Next Classic Encounter

It may be bye week for the Rabbitohs, but preparations are in full swing for the Club’s Round 13 return to Western Australia – the scene of so many recent classic matches – to take on the Gold Coast Titans.
Boasting everything from; come from behind wins, magic tries, shows of grit and determination, big hits and breathtaking aerial attacking raids, Perth has fast become one of the highlights of South Sydney’s NRL calendar and a Western Australian home away from home.
Look no further than the first time the Rabbitohs met the New Zealand Warriors at nib Stadium in season 2013 – a night that saw all of the above in addition to a then-ground record crowd of 20,221 watch the men in Red and Green down the New Zealanders by 30-13 in a thrilling match.

Perth-product, Bryson Goodwin, only added to the occasion by scoring two tries to help lift his side to victory, much to the appreciation of the WA crowd.
The Warriors burst out of the blocks early with some strong charges from Konrad Hurrell and elusive running from Shaun Johnson. But the Rabbitohs managed to get on the front foot with a break from Sam Burgess close to the line.
Adam Reynolds took advantage of the break, chipping for the corner of Andrew Everingham to open the scoring in just the sixth minute. Reynolds converted for Souths to take an early 6-0 lead.
Warrior, Simon Mannering, took a perfectly timed pass from Shaun Johnson to even up the scores at six points apiece after 28 minutes, and just minutes later, Hurrell bumped off Bryson Goodwin to run in for a four-pointer of his own. Johnson added the extras before dropping a field goal to take the teams into the sheds with the Warriors leading 13-6 at half-time. Little did the Warriors know that that would be it for their evening’s ledger.
Unperturbed, the Rabbitohs went back on the attack after the break, with George Burgess and Issac Luke both denied from close range in the same set, before Adam Reynolds chipped for the line for John Sutton, who finally got the men in Red and Green back on the board. Reynolds added the extras to put Souths just a point behind.
After a torrid period of football, it was Perth-product Goodwin who finally stole the lead back for the Rabbitohs, with the Souths centre putting a well-weighted grubber-kick in for himself before regathering to score with 12 minutes remaining. Adam Reynolds made no mistake with the conversion for the home-side to lead 18-13.
But Goodwin wasn’t done – scooping up a Warriors loose ball before racing 65 metres to score with just under five minutes of play remaining.
One last try inside the final minute of play to Chris McQueen rounded off a hard fought win, finishing up at 30-13.

Preparations for South Sydney’s trip west to take on the Gold Coast Titans in Perth are well underway, and playmaker Luke Keary says this week’s bye will only help that.

Coming off successive wins over the Parramatta Eels and St George Illawarra Dragons, Keary says that he and his teammates will be building on the positives of those performances, while seeking to address areas for improvement ahead of the upcoming Titans clash.

“Those games are behind us now and it’s all about the Titans for us,” said Keary.

“We took certain steps in the right direction for sure in those games, but it doesn’t mean anything if we don’t build on that and get even better.

“Heading over to Perth is a great chance for us to do that – we’ve loved going over there and spending the time together the last few years. I’m sure this time around won’t be any different.

“We’ve had some good opportunities in the last few weeks to really look at our game, and I think we’ve benefitted.

“It’s just about doing the same thing this week and continuing to build and grow on that. We’ve had some better performances, but there’s still stuff that we’re looking to work on.

“Defence is a big one, but we’re also looking at getting those completions up where they need to be – that’s something we’ve identified and we’re going to improve it over the coming days heading into Perth.”

But while the Rabbitohs prepare for the Titans, Keary’s good mate and halves partner, Adam Reynolds, will be preparing to face Queensland next Wednesday in Game I of the 2016 State of Origin Series – a fact that Keary and the whole Rabbitohs squad is immensely proud of.

“It’s a great opportunity for Ren,” said Keary.

“All the boys are really proud of the achievement and are really looking forward to seeing what he can do next week.

“Getting an Origin call-up is no small thing – he’s been playing really well for us after coming back from injury, and he’s reaping the rewards for that now.”

Clark Keeping Up the Intensity

Words & Video: Tom Skolarikis & Guy Bevan

Rabbitohs forward, Jason Clark and his men, continue to take advantage of this week’s bye as the men in Red and Green prepare to take on the Gold Coast Titans in Perth in Round 13.

“We’ve had three intense days,” said Clark of the Club’s bye-week training regime.

“It’s been good, the boys are laughing and enjoying it and (are) enjoying ripping in. So it’s been good – we’re coming into a little break now which will be really good for us to freshen up.”

But the excitement hasn’t been confined to the training paddock this week, with Clark expressing his enthusiasm for fellow teammate and Souths Junior, Adam Reynolds’ inclusion in NSWs State of Origin side for Game I of the 2016 Series next Wednesday. Reynolds will line up against Club skipper, Greg Inglis, who will represent the Maroons.

“I’ve grown up with ‘Reyno’ and watched him play, and watching him grow over the years has been awesome,” said Clark.

“For him to make that achievement – it’s a big thing for himself and his family. I know his family will be very proud of him – I was a bit surprised ‘Greggy’ (Greg Inglis) got in, I didn’t think he’d get picked,” laughed Clark. “We always support our boys, and that’s the main thing.”

Clark also addressed the burning question about his ‘new look’, having been stitched up following the Club’s Round 10 clash against the Eels.

“It’s not too bad,” smiled Clark showing off his scar.

“It looks a little bit better than what it was – the ‘Doc’ (did) a great job obviously with the stitching, so I can’t complain there and the wife’s pretty happy with it.”

He's injury prone, really didn't want him to be selected being totally selfish as I just want him in top form playing for us.

He's just as likely,probably more likely,to get an injury playing for us!!

I do agree though that he seems fragile!

I think origin is played with a bit more intensity than a normal game but I do agree with what your saying. The difference is he would be playing for us and we would get at least some time on the field from him.

I don't think he gets that with us!!
