Souths’ head coach Todd Dammers wants his team to take ownership of their inconsistent performances so far this year when they face Easts on Saturday at Chipsy Wood Oval.

“Our form has probably replicated our games – stop-start,” Dammers told Rugby News.

“There’s some stuff that we’re really happy with, but we’ve only played two games so in some ways it’s been hard to measure.

“We were disappointed about losing to UQ, but not unhappy.

“The season has been a bit patchy if I’m being honest.”
