Despite the heavy loss to the Broncos on Friday night, Rabbitohs centre Dane Nielsen (pictured) says he’s confident the club aren’t far away from returning to their best form.

The former Queensland Origin centre and Melbourne Storm premiership player made his debut for the Rabbits on Friday night and was a solid performer despite the loss.

The South side have a short turnaround before taking on the Tigers on Thursday evening and 30 years old Nielsen says he’s confident the clubs fortunes are set to change.
