Will Dewet Roos spark Souths’ attack?
Southern Districts have had an up and down year to date and have a 5-5 record after 10 rounds, but the Rebels welcome back Brumbies recruit Dewet Roos this weekend ahead of what really is a must win clash against Easts at Centennial Park. While the Rebels have showed glimpses of their best this year, they’ve lacked spark at times and Roos provides plenty of that and a steady hand at the base of the scrum. Easts however have looked good in recent weeks and know how to cause an upset. A win on Saturday could see the Beasties sneak into the top six.
Can Norths bounce back?
While Simon Cron has been tearing his non-existent hair out in Georgia, Norths have lost four straight matches in the past month and will be looking to find some form when they travel to Nepean to play Penrith. Will Miller, Hugh Sinclair and Con Foley all return for the Shoreman in a timely boost as they look to secure their spot in the top six
