Friday, 27th of August, 7:55 pm, NRL Round 24, Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane Roosters vs Rabbitohs NRL Match Fixture
A five-try second half against the Dragons last saw the Roosters surge home for the win, while the Rabbitohs were in it for much of the game against the Panthers but fell away towards the end and couldn’t get the points. With Manly and Parramatta breathing down the Rooster’s necks, they must win to keep their top 4 spot and Souths will be out to rebound straight away to show they’re still premiership contenders.
