‘We realise that’: Bennett admits to nagging Rabbitohs issue

Rabbitohs coach Wayne Bennett has admitted his side is facing a goalkicking issue after Jayden Sullivan kicked one from four against the Bulldogs.

Sullivan is South Sydney’s third-choice kicker with Matt Dufty even having a crack, and missing, on Friday night.

The Rabbitohs halfback had to take the role because Latrell Mitchell, Jamie Humphreys and Ashton Ward are all out injured. Ward injured his hamstring goalkicking last week.

Post-match, Bennett was happy to expand on whether the goalkicking was a problem.

“We’ve got three of them with injuries but can’t do much about it. We’ve just got to keep scoring tries and make sure we defend well. Humphreys should be back in a week or two, he can certainly kick goals.”

Rabbitohs suffer double injury blow

The South Sydney Rabbitohs will nervously wait when Adam Elliott is sent for scans for a groin injury sustained in the club's 22-6 win over the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs on Friday.

Elliott has a long history with groin complaints, most notably requiring surgery in 2023 for a groin issue while he was at the Newcastle Knights.

The 31-year-old forward has also battled an osteitis pubis issue in 2022, with inflammation occurring in the middle of the pelvis, which cut his season short after dealing with the problem for a number of weeks prior.

Rabbitohs coach Wayne Bennett confirmed it was a groin issue for Elliott in his post-match press conference.

How Bennett’s gut feel turned champion’s son into an Origin bolter

It took a gut instinct from master coach Wayne Bennett to transform Max Plath from a fledgling five-eighth into one of the NRL’s most well-rounded utilities.

Now, that vision has the Dolphins star on the cusp of achieving what his father fell short of – a State of Origin debut for Queensland.

Plath will have one final chance to prove he warrants a place in Billy Slater’s first Maroons team of the year during his side Magic Round clash with Bennett’s South Sydney Rabbitohs on Friday night.

Slater will name his Game One squad on Monday, and Plath is in serious contention to unseat Kurt Mann in the state’s No.14 jumper, having put himself near that reality last year before suffering a ruptured ACL.

Who will Billy Slater pick in the Maroons No.7 jumper?

Queensland Maroons veteran Ben Hunt says Sam Walker and Tanah Boyd are up to the task of filling the state’s halfback void left by Tom Dearden.

A syndesmosis injury has ruled Dearden out of the series opener in Sydney on May 27. He is no guarantee of being available for game two in Melbourne on June 17.

Dearden’s absence strips the Maroons of a man in form – leading the competition for line engagements (79) while sitting third for try assists (11), second in line break assists (14) and second for line break involvements.

Coach Billy Slater’s safest options are the veterans – Daly Cherry-Evans, Jamal Fogarty and Hunt, the latter pairing both just returning from calf and knee injuries respectively.

The Wayne Bennett phone call that sparked a breakout star’s resurgence

It took a phone call from master coach Wayne Bennett to begin lifting Jack Bostock out of the doldrums, but the Dolphins’ breakout star has no intention of returning the favour come Magic Round.

The Dolphins’ flyer has been a revelation since returning from a ruptured ACL suffered last year, and his form is expected to present his club with a daunting retention dilemma.

Bostock’s chance to return in his preferred centre position came due to Jake Averillo suffering a gruesome hand injury. He has shone with three tries and 186 running metres a game in two outings – wins against the Melbourne Storm and Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs.

Despite only playing two matches this season – and in the centre position – Dolphins outside back Jack Bostock has emerged as a surprising Origin bolter.

Returning from a ruptured ACL, the 22-year-old has scored three tries, made six tackle busts, one line-break, provided one try assist and averaged 186 running metres per game during those appearances.

Surprise bolter emerges for NSW Blues outside backs

With days edging closer to when Laurie Daley announces his NSW Blues State of Origin side, a surprise candidate has emerged following a string of excellent performances.

The Dolphins centre Jack Bostock has impressed in his return from ACL injury, playing in the centres for the first time at NRL level in the past fortnight.

The Illawarra-based product has recorded three tries, broke six tackles, one line-break, given one try assist and averaged 186 running metres per game in the two appearances since the injury return.

The towering centre is up against the likes of Josh Addo-Carr, Thomas Jenkins, and Campbell Graham for a wing spot, given that incumbents Latrell Mitchell and Stephen Crichton lock both centre positions up.

'Wasting his time': Wayne Bennett's advice to Benji Marshall amid questions over sin bin

Benji Marshall is "wasting his time" calling for consistency from NRL referees according to veteran coach Wayne Bennett.

Following the Tigers' 33-14 win over Canberra on Thursday, Marshall called out "inconsistency" in the refereeing this season after Api Koroisau was cited for a hip drop tackle on Noah Martin, which led to a three-match suspension.

Speaking to reporters on Friday, Bennett said the sin bin is "overused" while passing on some advice for the Tigers coach.

"I just realised what a hip drop is the other day, to be honest with you. Benji is a young coach so if he's a bit confused about the rules, wait until he gets another 10 years into the job," Bennett said.

Koroisau faces lengthy ban for hip-drop tackle in win over Raiders

Add articles to your saved list and come back to them anytime.

Api Koroisau is facing up to four weeks on the sidelines after being charged with a grade two dangerous contact charge.

The Wests Tigers skipper was placed on report and sin-binned for a hip-drop tackle on Canberra back-rower Noah Martin during Thursday night’s 33-14 triumph at Leichhardt Oval.

Koroisau was then penalised and put on report a second time for a lifting tackle on Morgan Smithies in the 53rd minute.

Tigers coach Benji Marshall argued Koroisau had nowhere else to go when completing the tackle on Martin, and when it came to the lifting tackle on Smithies, said: “If it was up to me, I probably would have challenged it [the penalty]. I didn’t think it was that bad.”
