The Rabbitohs are facing an injury crisis at centre, with Braidon Burns set to miss a considerable period of time with a hamstring injury.

The 22-year-old was injured early in his side's win over the Titans, with initial fears that he had fractured his ankle in addition to the hamstring ailment.

It has since been confirmed that Burns has escaped serious ankle damage, but the talented youngster is still expected to be unavailable for as long as a month.

The Burns blow, paired with the potential absence of Greg Inglis, could leave the Rabbitohs short-handed at centre.

Souths coach Wayne Bennett expressed confidence in his remaining centres, while noting that Inglis is likely to return soon.

"We are down two," Bennett told NRL.com.

"[Burns] did his hamstring and his ankle โ€ฆ his hamstring went first and then an ankle problem.

"I think our depth is ok.

"[Inglis] might be back next week โ€“ he may not be either but he won't be far away."

Souths take on Manly on Saturday at Lottoland.

  1. They are playing manly at the goat track.
    South’s should win comfortably but will more than likely suffer more injuries from the diabolical surface on the goat track.

  2. ManWar69er’s mob will demolish the overrated soufffths by a country mile. The only thing that will stop Soufffths from losing is if the their number one and two allies, rain and slippery Goat Track field attacks the paddock before kick off. โ›ˆโ˜”โ›ˆ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ‘

  3. Just can’t help yourself hey woodpecker, still on about Souths, yet again, noticed you let your alter ego Russ off the leash the other day, what was he pestering you?

    How does it feel woodpecker, knowing that 95% of ZT people actually don’t respect any of your comments, great to be popular hey?

  4. Even with a goat track we are a thousand miles ahead of the wooden spoon “oh no our 20 cabinets are so full” eels. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿฅ„๐Ÿฅ„๐Ÿฅ„๐Ÿฅ„

  5. Hey Woodchip, isnt that what you said in round 1 v rorters?
    You were only out by a 28 pt turnaround LOL.
    Sounds like you’re still recovering from the shellshock.
    Look forward to catching up after the Bronks slice you up unless you go in hiding for a couple of days like after round 1.

  6. This website is so boring with constant insults from that Mental Patient Woodpecker/Russ.
    He definitely seems to have a split Neurotic Personality.

    What is a neurotic person?
    Neuroticism is a long-term tendency to be in a negative or anxious emotional state. It is not a medical condition but a personality trait. … People with neuroticism tend to have more depressed moods and suffer from feelings of guilt, envy, anger, and anxiety more frequently and more severely than other individuals.

  7. 3caps ๐Ÿค ๐Ÿ‘’โ›‘Did you read that on the newspaper that your scallops were wrapped up in while you was chanting on the rabbits at training ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ Look the only thing I have been diagnosed with is old age. Look what you discribbed above is exactly what you have by the sounds of it. If you follow my posts and look at my emojis you will realise there is more laughing emojis than anything else. Hardly a symptom of your unauthorised diagnosis.

    OK 3Caps lets go over some of the symptoms and apply it to me.
    Guilt- I feel terribly guilty that the team I love eliminated the team you love in the preliminary final last season. NOT
    Envy- I feel very envious that the Sydney Roosters have won 3 Caps( Premierships) in the 21st Century. NOT
    Anger-I feel very angry that our team has played in every year of the comp since 1908 and soufffths have played 2 seasons less, I also feel angry that The Roosters let in no tries against soufffths in last seasons Prelimanry Final ending souffs season. NOT
    Anxiety- my stressfulness won’t go away even after we have won 20 Minor Premierships and 4 World Club Challenges. NOT

    Well as you can see 3caps. Looks like your no Doctor. I have no reason to have 3capitus or Neuroticism or what ever you recon. I have life is to short to be an unhappy person. So the cure for that is Follow the Roosters and laugh a lot.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ Don’t Worry Be Happy. This should cheer you up.
