Reserve Grade - NSW Cup Premiership Round 12

v North Sydney, Redfern Oval, Sat May 24 2:00pm [BAR TV]

WIN 18-2

Late Changes - Schuster is out. Humphries starts at five-eighth. Skelton is the concussion sub. Plath drops off the bench. South Sydney Rabbitohs have defeated North Sydney Bears 18-2 in Round 12 of The Knock-On Effect NSW Cup at Redfern Oval to pick up their second win of the season. Matthew Humphries made his debut for the Rabbitohs in the halves, stepping up from U19 SG Ball over the last fortnight. South Sydney’s resolve was tested early in the game when Mikaele Ravalawa went off with a shoulder injury, however outside back Declan Casey was brought on from the bench. It was a tense arm-wrestle to begin the match between the two foundation clubs, but it was South Sydney who broke the deadlock in the 13th minute to score first points. Halfback Ashton Ward attempted a grubber kick that ricocheted off a Bears defender and fell perfectly for Tim Johannssen, who barged his way through and crashed over for a try. Fletcher Myers converted to put the Rabbitohs ahead 6-0. Rabbitohs scored back-to-back tries to gain a 10-0 lead. Some heavy pressure on the Bears’ 10-metre line was rewarded with a try with Haizyn Mellars receiving the ball from a cut-out pass and scoring in the corner. A sin-bin against captain Ryan Gray looked to prove costly for the Rabbitohs but the defence stood tall and held out the Bears’ attack as they headed into half-time with the lead. The game picked right up where it left off in the second half with the two teams playing out a tight contest before South Sydney yet again broke the stalemate. This time it was through Jacob Host, as the experienced back-rower received an offload and spotted a gap in the defence to score himself a try. Myers nailed the conversion to put the Rabbitohs ahead 16-0. The Rabbitohs received a penalty late in the second half as Matt French was hit with a high tackle just short of the try-line. Souths opted to take the two, pushing the lead out to 18-0. South Sydney were denied a couple of late tries as Matt French was pulled back for a double movement and Haizyn Mellars dropped the ball past the try-line. North Sydney received a penalty after the siren yet opted to take the kick at goal, making the final score 18-2 and denying Souths a shutout in the process. The goal broke the deadlock in the two match aggregate for the Mario Fench Cup, with the Bears winning the cup 32-30.

After the match it was reported that Ataata has been suspended for 2 matches for a crusher tackle.
