From Nicole: "Today was ANZAC Day, Remembrance day. Even during WWI Souths had supporters thinking of their beloved team in spite of the hard time they were in.Today i saw a pic where soldiers were holding a big sign, flag, with Souths written on it.Today our Rabbitohs boys fought too to honour their members and supporters at Suncorp Stadium, on Broncos territory. After leading 14-0 with 3 tries in the first 16mn, our boys let it go a bit but it was 16-14 for them at the end of the first half. In the second half the Broncos took the lead but were just a few points ahead, both team playing really well. Beautiful game in attack! 6mn before full time it was 26 all! No good for a Rabbitohs supporter's heart, believe me! We were already thinking of going to Golden Point. Eventually Souths got a penalty 1mn before the end and Adam Raynolds gave us the victory! Souths defeated Brisbane Broncos 28-26. Spectacular game! Proud of the Rabbitohs who never gave up". - Game Report at Rabbitohs.com.au - and from CGee: "Great game of shifting momentum, Souths started like gangbusters but Brisbane came on strong. Coming from behind and finishing it off with a kick from Adam Reynolds in the waning moments of the game, Souths win 28-26"!

The Herald Sun: Crowe doesn't forget Anzac Day

SMH: Perhaps the highest-profile project of all is The Water Diviners. The feature film, shot in Turkey and South Australia at the turn of the year, stars Russell Crowe – who also directs – as a father who goes to Turkey after the end of WWI to search for the bodies of his sons. Currently in post-production, it is slated for release on Boxing Day. - Thanks, Allison

Souths Win -- Souths was playing vs Penrith Panthers tonight on Panthers field. They started to play under pouring rain but the Rabbitohs opened the scored on a penalty at the 7th mn et it was 2-0. But The Panthers sharpened their claws and the ball possession was all theirs during the first half. Thanks to Souths brilliant defence it was 2 all at half time. The second half was another story, the Bunnies dominating, scoring a try at the beginning of the second half. Conversion missed it was 6-2 for us but a genius Merritt scored a beautiful try at the 55th mn and Greg Inglis another one at the 71th. Souths beat Penrith Panthers18 to 2. How good! Great game from the whole team. We can be proud of them! - Thanks, Nicole -- And from CGee: "Tough, hard fought slog of a game in the rain but with brilliant defense in the first half and then gritty, hard hitting, smart footy in the second, Souths Sydney defeat Penrith 18-2! Nathan Merritt scores #145 and becomes Souths Sydney's all time top try scorer!"

From Nicole: Great night for the Rabbitohs tonight, a special one for all the players and supporters and most of all for John Sutton, the Bunnies captain, who created history as he broke a record in the Rabbitohs book, being the first to play 212 First Grade NRL games! The Rabbitohs, who were playing vs St George Illawarra Dragons, took the lead in the first minutes with a penalty and got the first 2 points. They were refused a try but soon after Luke Burgess scored a beautiful try. At half time it was 14-0 and the second half was all Bunnies. Great defence and attack that led to a beautiful  26-6 win, the Dragons scoring 15mn before the end. After 3 loss on a row our Bunnies are back. We love to see them play like that! Go Rabbitohs - Also thanks to CGee
