1.85-2.00
>Last time they met, Jamie Humphreys landed his first field goal when the Rabbitohs rallied to win 25-24. Accor Stadium hosts a Thursday night clash as two clubs out of finals contention battle for pride. The Rabbitohs are chasing a third consecutive win after gritty victories over the Titans (20-18) and Eels (20-16). The Dragons have lost three of their last five but showed immense resolve in a narrow 10-14 loss to the Warriors after losing three starting forwards to concussion. The Rabbitohs are boosted by the early return of prop Keaon Koloamatangi from an ankle injury, forcing a reshuffle that sees Tallis Duncan named at centre. Winger Alex Johnston needs just four more tries to break Ken Irvine's all-time premiership record of 212. The Dragons are decimated by injury, with forwards Jack de Belin, Hamish Stewart, and Hame Sele all sidelined under concussion protocols. Ben Murdoch-Masila starts at lock for his first NRL game of 2025. The Rabbitohs hold a slight edge in the NRL era, having won 22 of the 42 encounters between the two clubs, including seven of the past ten matchups. The most recent clash in Round 2 of this season was a thrilling 25-24 victory secured by a late field goal. This clash pits two injury-hit sides against each other, with the result hinging on which patched-up lineup can cope best.
