By: Roy Masters - January 28, 2012 - Photo: Wade Laube SOUTH Sydney supporters will be able to buy a beer today at their leagues club for the first time since it closed its doors on March 31, 2007, when all 22 employees were sacked following the privatisation of the football club by owners Russell Crowe and Peter Holmes a Court. A bar will be open at the club's Chalmers Street premises to celebrate the return of the Rabbitohs to the renovated Redfern Oval for a pre-season match against the Warrington Wolves. The five-year drought for South Sydney members represents a cautionary tale over the privatisation of football clubs, an option being considered by Cronulla, who may sell a leagues club asset in order to retire a $12 million debt.

Michael Maguire’s no bunny 
By: Andrew Sutherland - 22 Jan 2012 Last year Stephen Kearney came up against his former mentor Craig Bellamy for the first time, and was annihilated. Without shame he admitted he had been “taught a good lesson by the master”. Now it’s the Rabbitohs new coach and former Storm assistant Michael Maguire’s turn to face his master. Watching the 2009 Grand Final, if you didn’t know better, you would have thought Maguire was Craig Bellamy’s waterboy. He can be seen five minutes into the game handing a bottle to try scorer Ryan Hoffman. Following Adam Blair’s try in the 24th minute, however, he has the players in a circle, he’s intense, he’s making a  More >>>
Greg Inglis fit and firing after big pre-season 
by: James Hooper - January 22, 2012 - Picture: Anthony Reginato BE afraid. South Sydney superstar Greg Inglis has told those close to him he intends on having a "breakout" season in 2012. And as our photographs from Rabbitohs training at Redfern last week show, Inglis is looking in career-best condition. Weighing in at 105kg, the South Sydney Test centre is among the throng of Rabbitohs players to have enjoyed the benefits of an off-season under new high performance manager Troy Thomson. A close confidante of new coach Michael Maguire from their time in Melbourne, Thomson has added 3kg of muscle to Inglis since the Test star returned to training from the Four Nations Tour of the UK.

Souths captaincy up in the air, insists Maguire 
January 18, 2012 - Photo: Getty Images South Sydney coach Michael Maguire hasn't ruled out using Michael Croker and Roy Asotasi as co-captains at the NRL club in 2012. Maguire shared the stage with Crocker and Asotasi today for the launch of next month's Charity Shield between Souths and St George Illawarra. The rookie NRL coach said he would make a call on the captaincy in a couple of weeks. "I'm still talking with these guys (Asotasi and Crocker) and many other players about which way we want to go but at the moment it's still up in the air," he said. More >>>
Laurie Daley nominates Nathan Peats for All Stars clash 
By: Christian Nicolussi - January 18, 2012 - NATHAN Peats began the 2011 season without a contract. Now the Rabbitohs' rookie is an All Star. Peats may still be mistaken for look-a-like halfback Adam Reynolds by some of the South Sydney faithful, but Laurie Daley has had no such problem. The Indigenous All Stars coach did not hesitate when nominating Peats as one of two players he wanted on board for the February 4 clash with the NRL All Stars. "Nathan Peats can play, he's a whole-hearted player, plays long minutes and I can see him coming on and doing a good job for us," said Daley, whose other pick was Roosters' utility Anthony Mitchell .

Rabbitohs' Reynolds ready for the big time 
By: Michael Chammas, Lindsay Clement-Meehan - January 18, 2012 - Photo: Brendan Esposito BARRING another pre-season injury, unheralded South Sydney playmaker Adam Reynolds will fill the No.7 jersey vacated by Chris Sandow, in round one against Sydney Roosters. It's exactly the type of pressure the Rabbitohs have been trying to shield the 21-year-old from since Michael Maguire arrived at the helm, but the man who has spent the past decade playing alongside Reynolds, Nathan Peats, believes he is ready for the big time. ''His old man and my old man were friends at school, so we've grown up with each other and have played a lot of footy together,'' Peats said. More >>>
