Brisbane Broncos vs South Sydney Rabbitohs Preview
We’re off to Brisbane for the first Friday night primetime game of the season, and Souths will be eager to begin the post-Wayne Bennett era on a positive note.
The Broncos will be without newest recruit and former South Sydney great Adam Reynolds, and that certainly hasn’t been ignored by Neds punters – the home side have been friendless at $3.50, while the Bunnies are very firm $1.30 favourites.
It was yet another year of heartache for the parochial Broncos fans, and barring a few shining lights (blokes like Payne Haas), they were pretty bloody awful. A new season brings a fresh slate and new hope, and the only way for them is up.
I will be the first to admit that I gave Souths absolutely no chance of winning the premiership when Latrell Mitchell was ruled out at the pointy end of last season, and while I was technically right, boy they were impressive – some would say unlucky not to get there.
This is an easy season launchpad for the Bunnies, and I think that they will win comfortably.
