The South Sydney Rabbitohs are pleased to announce their NRL squad for Indigenous Round 12 against the Wests Tigers at Accor Stadium to be played this Saturday 28 May at 5:30pm.
Rabbitohs Head Coach Jason Demetriou has named Mark Nicholls to return from injury on the interchange bench. Cameron Murray and try scoring pathways winger Izaac Thompson been included on the extended bench.
The South Sydney Rabbitohs 2022 Indigenous Jersey honours our matriarchs – our mothers and all women. The jersey was designed by Uncle Joe Walker, a proud Wahlabul man, who is designing the Rabbitohs Indigenous jersey for the fifth time in 2022.
Depicted on the jersey is the birthing tree which symbolizes our matriarchs and acknowledges that everything comes from Mother Earth. The players’ totems are featured at the trunk of the tree which symbolizes that everyone is part of the foundation of our communities and that everyone has a role to play in helping the tree to flourish. The totems representing the players are:
• Goanna – Cody Walker (Yuin and Bundjalung) and Latrell and Shaquai Mitchell (Wiradjuri – maternal totem)
• Shark – Latrell and Shaquai Mitchell (Biripi – paternal totem)
• Crocodile – Alex Johnston (Saibai Island)
• Black-tailed Kangaroo – Isaiah Tass (Yuwi)
• Whale – Blake Taaffe (Bidjigal)
The red colour on the jersey represents the blood in our veins and red earth we live on and the green represents the natural beauties of our land. The red and green also represents the Rabbitohs and their connection to people right across our countries. The river represents our song lines and individual journeys as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people. The circles represent our people coming together as one. Many Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander clan groups come together to yarn and share in support of the Rabbitohs. In addition, the Aboriginal and the Torres Strait Islander flags highlight the sleeves of the jersey.
The jersey says we are all part of the Rabbitohs family. We all become one.
Round 12 will also be Damien Cook’s 150th NRL game in South Sydney colours. Cook debuted for the Rabbitohs in round one, 2016. He has played 158 NRL games during his career with the Rabbitohs, Bulldogs and Dragons.
The curtain raiser to the NRL fixture will be South Sydney Juniors district A-grade match between two clubs with long-standing ties to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community in the South Sydney region. The Redfern All Blacks (Gadigal) and La Perouse Panthers (Bidjigal) will kick off at 3:15pm, showcasing some of the best local talent in the South Sydney area.
Gates at Accor Stadium will open at 3pm on Saturday. Pre-match entertainment at Accor Stadium will include a Welcome to Country from Aboriginal Elder Uncle Allan Madden, didgeridoo performances on field and around the concourse from proud Wabanja Gunai and Dunghutti man, Brock Tutt, and proud Gamilaroi man Kaleb Taylor including a rendition of Glory, Glory to South Sydney at run out, and dance performances from The Glen, The Glen for Women and Brolga Dance Academy.
Aboriginal airbrush tattooists and totem colouring-in stations which also be features for kids around the concourse. La Perouse Panthers and Redfern All Blacks will also take to the field for the Mini League matches at half time of the NRL fixture, accompanied by a singing performance from proud Wiradjuri woman, Millie Mills.

The Rabbitohs are one of 13YARN’s first partnerships in Australian sport.

The Rabbitohs were off their game today and never really got going against a Raiders team that came to Apex Oval, Dubbo to play footy.
The 32-12 loss to the ‘Green Machine’ is the 2nd disastrous result in 2 years after the Panthers absolutely smashed Souths last year at the same NSW country venue.
Souths lost Junior Tatola in the first tackle of the game to a head knock and he was a huge loss after being one of the teams best last week against the Warriors.
There were however no excuses for a lacklustre performance peppered with drop balls, penalties and poor defence for the majority of the game.
Our injured captain Cameron Murray may not be far away from a return, Latrell Mitchell is still getting treatment in the US but hopefully back soon and Mark Nicholls is due back next week as well.
Some talented depth returning to the ranks may be the answer to lift the sides on field play to an acceptable level.
In one of the only bright spots on a dark day, Souths winger Alex Johnston moved to 2nd all time on the Rabbitohs try scoring list equalling Benny Wearings total of 144.
AJ sits just 2 behind Nathan Merritts 146 so 3 more tries will see him break the record.
Next week Souths take on the Wests Tigers on Saturday 5.30pm at Accor Stadium and the Rabbitohs TV team will present the post match function in the P&O Members deck.

The people have spoken, the 2022 Federal Election has been decided and the 31st Prime Minister of Australia is Anthony Albanese.
The Rabbitohs TV team would like to congratulate Mr Albanese on a famous victory for the Labour Party and also give special mention to Matt Thistlethwaite for winning his seat of Kingsford Smith.
59 year old Anthony Albanese was born in Sydney to parents Carlo Albanese and Maryanne Ellery. His mother was an Australian of Irish descent, while his father was from Barletta in Southeastern Italy.
Anthony Albanese is a lifelong Rabbitohs supporter who served as a board member of the club from 1999 to 2002 and was influential in the fight to have the club readmitted to the NRL.
In his moving victory speech to the nation last night, Mr Albanese also known as ‘Albo’ said “Tonight the Australian people have voted for change” as he stood on stage at the Canterbury-Hurlstone Park RSL Club alongside partner Jodie Haydon and son Nathan.
“My fellow Australians, it says a lot about our great country that a son of a single mum who was a disability pensioner, who grew up in public housing down the road in Camperdown can stand before you tonight as Australia’s prime minister”.
“I hope that my journey in life inspires Australians to reach for the stars”.
Mr Albanese showed his governments intentions to further reconciliation by saying “I commit to the Uluru Statement from the heart in full.”
On climate change “Together we can end the climate wars. Together we can take advantage of the opportunity for Australia to be a renewable energy superpower. Together we can work in common interests with business and unions to drive productivity, lift wages and profits.”
At the time of writing it isn’t clear if Labour will win the 76 seats needed to form a majority government but one thing is certain, our newly elected Prime Minister is a South Sydney Rabbitohs man.
Todays pathways double header saw both our NSW Cup and Jersey Flegg teams defeated by the Canberra Raiders at Ironmark High Performance Centre, Redfern.
The NSW Cup game kicked off at 11.30am but the result was a one sided affair with the Raiders running away with a 41-10 win.
The Flegg followed at 1.30pm, the Bunnies losing 24-20 to the Green Machine. Souths winger Izaac Thompson returned from injury to add another 2 tries to the 4 he scored a fortnight ago.
Grant Chappell from Rabbitohs TV was at Redfern to watch the Flegg and reported that “The Flegg had a spirited come back, losing 24- 20 after they were down 24-6.”
Next Sunday our Womens team and NSW Cup teams take on the Bears, at 12pm and 2pm respectively at North Sydney Oval. Jersey Flegg meet the Roosters on the same day 3pm at Waverley Oval.

When Rabbitohs winger Alex Johnston scored his 143rd try last week against the Warriors it took him one step closer to becoming the clubs all time leading try scorer.
The incredibly talented Nathan Merritt holds the Rabbitohs record with 146 tries and the legendary Benny Wearing sits 2 tries behind him on 144.
Alex Johnston also known as AJ needs just 4 more tries to break the record and there’s a good chance he will do it this year in his 9th season at the club.
Merritt achieved his try total in 11 seasons at Souths (with a 2 year 8 try stint at the Sharks in between that we aren’t counting here).
When looking at Merritts total we must take into account that his career began in a struggling Souths team that had just been re admitted to the competition.
AJs career began in the glorious 2014 season when the Rabbitohs had become an NRL powerhouse. He made his debut against the Broncos at Lang Park alongside superstars Greg Inglis and Sam Burgess and of course scored a try. Try doubles in games 2 and 3 set AJ on the successful try scoring path that has continued every season since.
Wearings trys were scored in 13 seasons from 1921-1933, a golden era for the club in which we won 7 premierships.
Regardless of the circumstances of those that have come before him one thing is certain, Alex Johnston is a try scoring freak who knows his way to the tryline and is one of the best finishers in NRL history.
The all time NRL try scoring record is held by Ken Irvine with 212 tries. At the moment Alex Johnston sits equal 19th but a climb up higher on that ladder is inevitable for the flying Rabbitoh winger.

Last Friday we paid a visit to the Kingsford office of our valued partner NG Farah to meet their team.
Like many Australian success stories, NGFarah Pty Ltd started with one working man pursuing a clever idea to provide for his family. He had a winning formula: more than 55 years later, NGFarah has grown to become a highly successful, family owned enterprise.
It was 1962 when Nassim and Doreen Farah opened their real estate business in a small upstairs office at 343 Anzac Parade, Kingsford. Today NGFarahs multi level real estate centre boasts never ending pedestrian traffic at the ‘Nine Ways’ roundabout – just five doors down from where Nassim began. His mission in 1962 was exactly the same as it is today:
TO CREATE a dynamic, independent real estate agency servicing our community in Sydney’s South East.
TO OFFER unmatched local knowledge, service and innovative sales marketing, achieving the very best results for clients.
TO BUILD trust and respect by conducting all dealings with integrity and honesty.
NGFarah has evolved from being an ambitious sole trader to an undisputed local market leader, employing three generations of the Farah family including the founders’ wife, Mrs Doreen Farah.
The Rabbitohs TV crew were back in the studio today to dissect the Bunnies 32-30 win over the Warriors in Magic Round at Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane.
Our video and sound quality is up there with the best we’ve produced so far. Don’t miss it and look out for our Team List Tuesday show tomorrow.
Sad news this week when we lost two former Rabbitohs, Frank Curry and John Lintmeijer. Both men taken way too soon, Rest In Peace.
