80min

Penalty Goal: Rabbitohs
Kicked by Adam Reynolds.

Reynolds adds the two following the sin bin.

Rabbitohs lead Rabbitohs 32 - 16 Cowboys
79min

Michael Morgan is sent to the bin after Klein judges him to have bumped Sam Burgess off a potential try scoring opportunity.

78min

Cowboys give up possession and the Bunnies are steaming up field!

77min

Cowboys back in possession and doing everything they can to close the gap. Attacking 10m out!

76min

That's a no. Feldt's gone out during the put-down process. Souths scrum 10m out.

76min

Time off, Bunker ruling on a Cowboys no try. Feldt... did he get it down?

74min

Cowboys pick a penalty up after a high shot. Big chance to score here...

73min

Kicked by Jordan Kahu.

Kahu converts from the wide position and the margin is 14 with eight remaining.

Rabbitohs lead Rabbitohs 30 - 16 Cowboys
72min

Try: Cowboys
Scored by Tom Opacic. Kick to come.

Opacic breaks a tackle down the left and evades the defenders to score what looks to be a consolation effort.

Rabbitohs lead Rabbitohs 30 - 14 Cowboys
69min

134,677 across the four days of Magic Round - fair to call the concept a success?

62min

North Queensland quickly running out of time to get back into the contest. Just rolling through their sets at the moment - Michael Morgan is trying things but the Bunnies are wise to it. This time the Cowboys get an escort penalty right on the Souths line.

56min

A bit of a mess since the Rabbitohs' last try - some messy play from both sides. The Cowboys need to produce something to make a game of this.

51min

Kicked by Adam Reynolds.

Reynolds nails another.

Rabbitohs lead Rabbitohs 30 - 10 Cowboys

44min

Up to the Bunker. We're checking a potential knock on by Cody Walker in the lead up. Looked like a knock on from the first angle, but replays suggest it's a try!

43min

Feldt with a lost ball inside the Cowboys' half. Rabbitohs attack.

41min

Second half begins and the Cowboys start with plenty of energy. They believe they can cause an upset here.

38min

HIA assessments being called for with a break in play.

37min

Kahu in his second visit back to Suncorp this year since leaving the Broncos - and he's nailed it from out wide. Margin reduces to two converted tries.

The Souths' line does snap! O'Neill crashes over off a perfect ball by Mitch Dunn.

34min

Cowboys force a drop-out after kicking early in the set. Can they finally crack the Bunnies line?

30min

Momentum well and truly with the Cowboys at the moment but they're lacking the finesse. Feldt spills a Morgan pass out wide and the Rabbitohs get the scrum 10m from their own line.

27min

Cowboys look to force a drop-out but the kick is too deep.

25min

Kicked by Adam Reynolds.

Reynolds converts truly.

Rabbitohs lead Rabbitohs 18 - 0 Cowboys
24min

Scored by Kyle Turner. Kick to come.

The Cowboys are opening up like the mouth of the Ross River at the moment! Cook blows the line open and finds Turner... TRY TIME!

3min

Solid metres from both sides in their opening sets.

1min

Souths in their black-trim home jersey with the famous red and green stripes, the Cowboys in their white away jumper. Time on... Klein says GO. The final match of Magic Round BEGINS!

A bit of a delayed start to this one, the final game of a pretty amazing Magic Round. Souths have just one change with Burgess benched and Tatola starting. Cowboys lose Tuala, with Opacic into the centres. Granville is benched with Baptiste starting.
