From Nicole: "Today Australia was playing a nrl test match vs NZ in Canberra. Two of Souths players were involved, Issac Luke playing for NZ and Greg Inglis for Australia that dominated the second half. They had a great defence among other things. They won 32-12 but many tries were strangely denied to the Kiwis.Very poor refereeing or is it new rules? Greg Inglis, who scored his 20th try in 23 test match (!),has been injured. Hope it won't prevent him from playing Manly Sea Eagles next week. We need him!"

And Snyder deploys Superman’s two dads for gripping, near-continuous voiceover that ripples like a river to propel the trailer along."

Storm squeek past the Bunnies - Good game - Remember you can watch the Rabbitohs' games live on Live Stream - From CGee: "The game was played at a lightning fast pace; footy at the highest level of skill. Souths defense was tested constantly by a determined Storm team who broke through twice with the half ending 12-0. Souths came our like a house on fire in the second half to score their first try. A combination of Melbourne's spot on kicking game, relentless defense and forced errors kept Souths' attack at bay. In the end the Storm were just too consistent in spite of a Souths' team who never gave up the fight. Melbourne Storm defeat the South Sydney Rabbitohs 17-10"

Bunnies win! - [Nice birthday present for Russell] -- "Nail-biting win today 24-22. After dominating the first half they started with 2 awesome tries from Merritt and Inglis and leading 18-6 at half time, with great attack & defence, the Rabbitohs let it go in the second one. Tha warriors dominated most of this one scoring 3 tries in a few minutes and leading 22-18. But the last ten were Bunnies' with a wonderful try from George Burgess that Raynolds converted. Souths defeated Warriors 24-22. Bunnies stay undefeated with 5 wins in a row." - Thanks, Nicole, --- "What a great game of footy! The first half saw South in control, highlighted by two beautiful trys - Nathan Merritt bobbed and weaved his way 50 meters for one and Greg Inglis snatch the ball and ran the ball back 90 meters for his 100th try! The second half saw a tenacious Warrior team fight back to take the lead. It was a wild finish with both side passing the ball with abandon but on the back of a George Burgess try, the undefeated South Sydney defeated the New Zealand Warriors 24-22, their fifth straight win in their best start since their Premiership winning 1971 season!" - Thanks, CGee
