They play better without aggressive Latrell

[@itistrue101]

Russell looks like he's eaten all the best rabbits

[@youareawesome5236]

We finally know who ate all the pies.

[@grahamcassidy7540]

The culture at Souths "win one every 50 years"! The culture at Penrith is "win one every year!" Welcome back RUSTY! 100%

[@harryaxe4634]

South’s played better without Latrell

[@nathanielabbate8747]

We always do 🤷‍♂️ he should just retire

[@Eccentricplum]

watching it live, it was refreshing to see Gray do his thing

[@fallout76nz24]

They need to drop him.

[@sydfieldmasmafua4888]

They should pull the plug on JD now , cause there is no way they beating Storms and Penrith at the way they going 🤦🤦🤦

[@w_stanky]

Start by sacking the fullback, the 5/8 and go from there. Attitude problem fixed right there.

[@jwc713]

The victimhood mentality is pure cancer to everything it touches.

Rabbits will make a comeback and end up in the top 8 amd the media will praise him and say they new it would happen

Bennett has more chance of guiding the Dolphins to a premiership than he would if he went back to Souths.

[@CQuinnLady]

Souths have a history of choking... After 40 years a bunnies fan, I left and joined Dolphins. If Bennet couldnt get them to a premier, noone can.

Just finished watching the sharks v rabbits. Grey is good 7 and will get a lot better also they have some good new and younger players. They don’t need Latrell. Build next year’s team.

[@fisho2620]

Latrell is waiting for Albo to gift him a NRL premiership. These guys always want a hand out

[@Carlix_nt]

Sstid. Not saying there isn't problems in defence, but its not like they have been playing bottom 9teams with a heathly roster. 6 rounds, 5 of them are top 8teams.

[@troystaunton254]

I think it’s the way they’ve played though. Like Brisbane is 10th and no one is talking about that. The roosters are 9th there’s no discussion around them. I think Souths overall performance is the issue not necessarily the results. Plus add the last 10 games last year and it’s a trend not just an event.

[@toskuxklan711]

He’s a good coach the players are putting in no effort

[@ronaldmusk4996]

Cook... too old,too heavy & out of form Walker...too old, unfit & not a team player Mitchell....self appointed unfit Godfather, with Cook & Walker believing it JD, Souths will boom without these 3 Troublemakers...

[@sydfieldmasmafua4888]

More Like JD being a Kiss ass and not putting players to the sword

[@troystaunton254]

9:05 Wayne wanted demetrau to replace him in Brisbane and Brisbane knew better. Wayne also wanted Ivan henjack to replace him at Brisbane 08. Wayne likes getting incompetent people to replace him so he looks even better retrospectively

[@stewartdavies929]

Bennett recommended Price at the Dragons too.

[@jwc713]

He's smart enough to cover his tracks; the incumbent always selected to make him look good. WB is a weasel.

[@garybaltiejus7248]

I think the core issue is the treatment of walker/ Mitchell it caused the "burgess saga" and now the " Jason Demetriou saga" so Souths management needs to act or stay tuned for the next saga coming soon

[@CasperFGhost]

I agree on most things but saying the discussion is dependant on whether the News (Papers/Media) continues reporting on it - you’re a part of it. To sit on a panel show as “Media Influencers/Knowledgeable Persons” and to say throw blame at NewsCorps for doing the same thing you’re doing is hypocrisy.

[@MungasaurusBravo69420]

Start Mamouzelos at 9 and have bring Cook back off the bench. Keep Gray and move Latrell to centre, cause clearly hes not a modern fullback. Codys goes missing most of the game but he sets up tries when he does.

[@bigfish6337]

Why did billy look at freddy when he said "we all know what builds performances"

[@michelledafinis3601]

Mamouzelos was impressive ! There was so much green shoots Allot of players looked impressive last night Stop talking crap about the coach

[@YouChwb]

Talk about stretching a club's saga.

[@gattingbowledwarne]

This is great for the rugby league/media complex

[@darrengifford7442]

Jim Dymock as new coach he's ready for the top job a local jnr give him a go

[@edwardreuben6650]

The coach is fine. Latrell is the problem. Everyone has been affected by this one man. Dump him.

[@sydfieldmasmafua4888]

The Coach is a Kiss Ass if he had Balls to put Mitchell in Centres and Find a Good Full Back they won’t be Last on the Ladder 🤦🤦🤦

[@Rhiannon-m6d]

Klopp come save them

[@mhjyuti]

Funny how we can comment on 9's sports page but not on their page for actual new and current events.

[@troystaunton254]

4:36 can we start talking about how most of Wayne’s success as a coach is on the back of Alfie langer. 4/7 comps won were Alfie langer. Every single origin series win Wayne has is with Alfie langer. 50% of his test career success is with Alfie at 7. And everything else he either had lockyer or johns doing it all. I’d argue the dragons premiership is the only thing he did that he wasn’t carried to.

[@thedudebro168]

I do agree with you, but he also seems to be a coach that players want to play for. That counts for plenty. But, should it take that? Probably not. If you have players playing at a professional level that don't want to behave in a professional manner, then that's a problem in any case

[@riposter69]

That's true but he did take two teams to a GF which they lost. But he still gets clubs to become successful to a degree

[@jettstream2886]

That's just stupid

[@thylacine1004]

Souths are in decline,they are ageing and not bringing the youth through,Taft should have been resigned and playing first 13....rebuild needs to restart....

[@wilfredoUbatuba]

why would Sam want to come back, the situation being the same at the club as when he "left"

[@lizard9437]

my odds to wayne taking over is 100/1.....taking all bets lol

[@anthonyauk4353]

Mal was on fox last night on air and said no one has approached him how dies this bloke say someone has

[@troystaunton254]

Exactly what I thought!! He claims Mal is saying people talked to him, and Mal in his one public statement said no one at all has even talked to him.

[@supaplayer123]

Mal is lieing He definitely got spoken to

[@daleviker5884]

@@troystaunton254 I watched that segment and Mal was careful to say that he had not received an OFFICIAL approach. Oldest trick in the book. The club gets a third party to talk to him, and if it blows up then all parties can legally deny that any talks took place. But if things go well, then the unofficial discussions keep on going until it's time to make them "official".

[@propellavideo]

Honestly, the best man for the job is Shaun Wane.

It’s been happening since after origin finished last year dump the coach and put the players on notice shape up or ship out give some NSW Cup boys ago they won the state championship last year and first grade bombed out of the 8 from my memory

[@damianmaguire1648]

JD has to go! and fast.Then this team can start to mend my sights are on next season

[@Eccentricplum]

Yeah I reckon this seasons a write off. The coach is finished, matter of when now. They should be marching him now due to the gradual decline since he took over

[@DaShA69684]

its out now Cody Walker is the problem and the team hates him, what a shame the coach was sacked, unbelievable the team hasn’t made a stand against the overrated Walker

[@bradley7674]

The Rabbits management should get rid of the coach and all of the lazy players and do a rebuilding phase where they get a new coach who knows what he's doing and to get new players who aren't lazy and/or cocky. If they can't do that then it is probably for the best that the Bunnies either get relegated into a lower system like in soccer or kick them out of the comp for the 2nd time.
