2025 NRL Premiership Round 4 - Teams

South Sydney v Penrith

The South Sydney Rabbitohs are pleased to announce their squad for round four against the Penrith Panthers to be played this Thursday 27 March at 8pm at Accor Stadium. Rabbitohs Head Coach Wayne Bennett has named Alex Johnston to return on the wing for his first game since round 21 last season. Isaiah Tass has been named to play in the centres, replacing the injured Campbell Graham who sustained a lower limb injury to his leg in last week’s game against the Sharks. Mikaele Ravalawa will play the 100th NRL game of his career this Thursday against the Panthers, having made his NRL debut for the Dragons against the Cowboys in round one, 2019. Siliva Havili is set to play his 50th NRL game in South Sydney colours this Thursday since making his Rabbitohs first grade debut against the Broncos in round one, 2022. L.Mitchell, S.Mitchell, Murray, Munro, Graham, Aitken, Burns, McCarthy, Lovett, Schuster, Host, Bentley-Hape, French, Kalo, Kalo, Humphries and Kuscu are out injured. Hubner is out suspended.

The Rabbitohs will be paying tribute to Ray Martin AM at this game, who retired from the South Sydney Members District Rugby League Football Club (Member Co.) Board at its recent Annual General Meeting. Mr Martin’s support of the Club spans almost two decades in an official capacity, was a leading member of Group 14 who campaigned so hard for the Rabbitohs to be reinstated to the elite competition in Australia in the early 2000s, and has supported the Club for many more decades. Mr Martin was awarded Life Membership of the Rabbitohs in 2016.
