globalrugbyleague - Sun, 20 Apr 2008 23:38:00 GMTSouth Sydney are still marching on but without a win next to their name after going down 30-10 against the Wests Tigers at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Sunday
The Tigers scored 30 unanswered points after the Rabbitohs led 10-nil towards the back end of the first half.
Last year’s big improvers opened up the first forty minutes with an excellent defensive line multiplied by some creative attack. But for a limited time only.
South’s only two tries came care of Beau Champion (21m) and Ben Rogers (27m) before the Tigers scored the final five tries of the afternoon with captain Brett Hodgson converting all of them.
The red and green machine face a month of attrition when they play the Broncos next Friday followed by the Cowboys, bye, Raiders and the Storm.
Many pundits are predicting that Jason Taylor’s foot soldiers won’t win until at least round 12 when they play the Dragons at home.
To make things even more annus horribilis, South Sydney went down 26-12 in the Toyota Cup but thankfully won 22-12 against Newtown in the VB Cup where they are represented by North Sydney.
