WIN 20-16
The South Sydney Rabbitohs scored two tries in the final seven minutes to secure a controversial come-from-behind 20-16 victory against the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs in the traditional Good Friday clash at ANZ Stadium. The Bulldogs paid the price for poor ball security throughout a match they largely controlled, failing to close out the match despite several opportunities to put the Bunnies to bed. After a weekend highlighted by contentious refereeing, the trend continued on Friday afternoon after Ben Cummins apologised to Bulldogs captain Josh Jackson for not allowing him time to return to the defensive line following an official warning for repeated penalties against his side. Greg Inglis capitalised on the hole in the defensive line to score out wide in the first half, and in the end the four-pointer to the Rabbitohs skipper proved the difference between the two teams in front of a crowd of 32,471 at ANZ Stadium. "I'm sorry Josh, I didn't realise," Cummins said at the time when the Bulldogs led 12-6. It was a climactic finish to what was a rather stop-start affair, with Hymel Hunt and Cameron Murray scoring for South Sydney to help them overcome an early 12-0 deficit. The Bulldogs had to do it without their best player over the opening three weeks of the season after Moses Mbye's afternoon ended five minutes into the contest. Mbye clashed heads with Roberts Jennings while making a try-saving tackle on the Rabbitohs winger and the pair played no further part in the match. It was a game riddled with errors and penalties, with the referees not shying away from blowing penalties, as has been the case throughout the opening month of the season. The Morris brothers combined for the opening two tries of the afternoon, with Brett the provider on both occasions. The first came off a cross-field kick from Jeremy Marshall-King, with Brett tapping down to his brother for an early lead. A pin-point accurate pass from Will Hopoate put Brett into open space soon after, drawing the fullback to put Josh over for his second try of the afternoon. The Bulldogs should have been 14 points ahead at that point, however an inexcusable missed conversion attempt from Kieran Foran right in front of the post left the halfback red-faced. Somehow he managed to kick the ball under the cross-bar, but made no mistake just before half-time when he slotted over a penalty goal from a similar position. But it wasn't long before the Rabbitohs were awarded a controversial try to Inglis, with Jackson out of position having just been called out by referee Cummins. To compound things for Canterbury, it came after the referees changed a knock-on call against Rabbitohs back-rower John Sutton to a penalty against the Bulldogs, despite replays suggesting the original call may have been the correct one. The Bulldogs lost some depth in the engine room when prop Aiden Tolman limped off in the first half with a leg injury and didn't return. Canterbury went into the break holding a 14-6 lead, but the deficit was soon reduced to just four points when Souths winger Braidon Burns dived over in the corner following another series of repeat penalties from Canterbury. The game looked like it would swing in favour of the Bulldogs when Sam Burgess was penalised coming off his own line for a forearm on Josh Morris, but the Rabbitohs managed to keep their opponents to just one penalty goal in the second half - storming home to seal their second win of the season.

WIN 46-8
Late Changes - Nakia Welsh, Kowana Welsh and Vunakece are out. Simon starts fullback, Lamb on the wing, Kershaw at prop. The South Sydney Rabbitohs women’s team have made it two from two to start the 2018 season, thrashing the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs 46-8 in the first women's Rugby League game at ANZ Stadium. It didn’t take long for Souths to stamp their authority on the match. Fill in fullback Taleena Simon dazzled the opposition defence with an incredible 50-metre run to give the Rabbitohs a 4-0 lead. The Red and Green had their next four pointer just moments later. In the 14th minute, Souths’ halfback Maddie Studdon walked through the Bulldogs defence close to the line to score her first try. The No. 7 easily added the extras to extend the Rabbitohs lead to 10-0. It got even better for the Rabbitohs in the next set of six, with Karri Doyle scoring the Rabbitohs third try. The speedy winger planted the ball down right next to the posts after following up another Simon break. Studdon nailed the conversion from in front to give Rabbitohs women a 16-0 lead after 23 minutes and, from then on it turned into the Simon and Studdon show. In the 28th minute, the fullback broke through the Bulldogs defence again, before offloading it to her halfback who raced away to score under the posts. Studdon converted her own try to give the Rabbitohs a 22-0 advantage. The Rabbitohs had more chances to score before half-time but a desperate Bulldogs defence survived the further onslaught, keeping the score at 22-0 at the break. The second half started exactly the same as the first, with the Rabbitohs in full control. Off the bench, Grace Uluiburotu scored in the 43rd minute with a barnstorming run close to the line. It was again easy work for the reliable boot of Studdon, who gave the Rabbitohs 28-0 lead. Next to score for the Rabbitohs was lock Jasmin Allende, who proved too strong close to the line. Studdon again with a simple conversion to promote the Rabbitohs lead out to 34-0. Allende then showed off her blistering speed in the 54th minute, pouncing on a Bulldogs mistake to run 90 metres untouched to score her second try. Studdon again adding two points to the Rabbitohs total to make it 40-0. The Bulldogs would eventually get on the score sheet in the 64th minute, with centre Grace Clarke crossing over. The conversion attempt went just wide to leave the score at 40-4 in the Rabbitohs favour. The Bulldogs would continue to put up a fight and Clarke again crossed the line to give the Blue and Whites their second try in the 75th minute. However, the Rabbitohs would add the icing on the cake when Sharon McGrady weaved her way through the Bulldogs defence to score. Studdon again slotted the conversion in the final minute of the game to give the Rabbitohs a thoroughly deserved 46-8 victory on Good Friday.
