South Sydney go into the weekend clash with the Roosters wary of a backlash from the struggling tri colours.

The Bondi clubs finals chances are on life support after a shocking start to the season, having lost 5 straight and will need to put behind them the 42 – 10 flogging handed to them by the Bunnies in round one.

Rabbitohs prop Tom Burgess (pictured)  isn’t counting his chickens though because he knows the dangers posed by a Roosters side that will be desperate to get back on the winning side of the ledger.
