Rabbitohs v Broncos: Murray good to go; Oates ruled out
Hot off an upset win over the Titans, the Rabbitohs will look to go back-to-back for the first time this season when they host the Broncos at Accor Stadium.
Latrell Mitchell produced the performance South Sydney fans have been waiting for to ignite a 46-12 drumming over the Gold Coast and now well in the Origin equation, Brisbane will be doing their homework on how to shut down the star fullback.
The Rabbitohs also welcome back star skipper Cameron Murray (hip) for the first time since Round 9 who will be desperate to help his side climb further out of the NRL cellar.
The Broncos, meanwhile, will be looking to get their season back on track having now gone down to the Titans and Sharks either side of bye.
Sportsbet Betting Preview - Rabbitohs v Broncos
Team News
Rabbitohs: No late changes with skipper Cameron Murray returning from the hip injury that has sidelined him since Round 9. Murray will come off on the interchange bench and his inclusion could see lock Keaon Koloamatangi spend time back on the edge if required throughout the game. Dion Teaupa is 18th man.
Broncos: No further changes after veteran winger Corey Oates was ruled out with a knee injury and replaced by rookie Josiah Karapani, who spent Thursday's captain's run attacking at wing and defending at centre. Xavier Willison (personal reasons) and Kotoni Staggs (rib) have both been named and will play. Israel Leota is 18th man.
