FULL TIME - Long time after siren we finally get full time and Souths book their spot in the finals with their 20-10 victory
Latrell Mitchell converts from in front
Tom Burgess seals the win and the finals spot for the Rabbitohs - Just close to the ruck and the Cowboys aren't going to stop him from that close
PENALTY SOUTHS: Peta Hiku basically standing offside to stop the Souths attack
Kyle Feldt is off to the sin bin and there is no arguments on this one as he takes out Alex Johnston in the kick chase
So much to check but you think that someone is going to go to the sin bin again for the Cowboys as AJ is taken out by Feldt and then checking if Latrell is taken out
Peta Hiku loses the ball
Absolutely horrible call again from the bunker - Replays showed that it was clearly a head clash but they've ruled it a shoulder to the head
Not sure if this is a head clash or a shoulder to the head - Both players clashing heads
Dumb dumb dumb - Luciano Leilua throws an offload back to the Rabbitohs
Cowboys go left off the scrum and almost poke their heads through
Taane Milne with an error on a high kick almost in the same spot that Jaxson Paulo lost the ball last week to give the Panthers an attacking opportunity
Valentine Holmes from out wide a tough task but the strike is not good and it stays to the right of the posts
Chad Townsend put under pressure on the last with a poor pass and a rushing up defence and a great pass out to Feldt who gets on the outside of the defence and then kicks it, kicks ahead and grounds it
WOW.... KYLE FELDT
UNSUCCESSFUL CHALLENGE: It's a pretty ridiculous call from the bunker in all honesty; The initial decision was not played at which the Cowboys challenge and Taane Milne kept looking at the ball to get in position for a block and the ball hits his arm and goes out. He was playing to where the ball was but bunker rules otherwise
Scott Drinkwater not entirely certain under the high ball but takes a good catch
Alex Johnston a great take under pressure as Jeremiah Nanai was there to contest
Still no second half points and quickly approaching half an hour since the last 4 pointer
Cowboys play the high kick cool and let Isaiah Tass catch it and swarm him straight away
Kyle Feldt takes a good catch under pressure
SUCCESSFUL CHALLENGE: The ball was knocked on by Murray Taulagi first and the challenge is successful
CAPTAINS CHALLENGE: Valentine Holmes' offload ruled first touch by Lachlan Illias but it looks like Murray Taulagi got his hand to it first
Latrell Mitchell held up and driven towards the touchline and out
Jeremiah Nanai ruled to have lost it on his own
(VERY LATE) CAPTAINS CHALLENGE: The Rabbitohs penalised for a ruck interference and they challenge it very very late and succeed
Cowboys go the short dropout again - Souths take it and then AJ gets it cleanly and throws an intercept to blow another Souths opportunity
Souths clean up the ball as the Cowboys attack goes astray
SIX MORE - Ruck infringement from the Rabbitohs according to Gerard Sutton
Cowboys defence take a bow - Souths have repeat pressure and in all honesty delivering zilch that is threatening and the Cowboys held them out for repeated sets
Alex Johnston takes a clean catch of the Cowboys short dropout
Peta Hiku knocks the ball on down low after the short dropout was tapped back from Kyle Feldt
Cowboys want a knock-on called off the Rabbitohs but there is nothing there
Peta Hiku ruled to have knocked on as nobody wanted a piece of that kick
Mark Nicholls loses the ball close to the line
Kyle Feldt loses the ball under pressure of the kick and Souths get a big attacking set
Cody Walker loses the ball on the last and it's a pretty cheap turnover
SECOND HALF IS GO! Cowboys trailing by 8 have the first use of the ball
HALF TIME - The Rabbitohs hold an 8 point lead at the break heading to the sheds leading 14-6
Luciano Leilua ruled to have knocked on in the contact
Val Holmes takes a great take in the air, could've got a penalty but then a play later set restart comes
AJ could've let that go but he makes a play at it and it goes dead via the Rabbitoh
The Rabbitohs look to shift right and really their play that way is shift (minus the f)
Latrell Mitchell converts from wide out
All confirmed for AJ
AJ is over - The Bunnies shift left and yet again it looks crisp as they create space for Alex Johnston outside
PENALTY SOUTHS: Jason Taumalolo penalised and on report for a dangerous tackle
PENALTY SOUTHS: Cowboys penalised for not being square at marker and Souths get a free piggyback into attacking position
Scott Drinkwater can't take the high short dropout from Latrell and it's a knock-on
Repeat set for the Cowboys after a kick for the Hammer is knocked dead
A real nothing kick from Chad Townsend there as Latrell Mitchell takes a simple take under a bit of pressure
Tevita Tatola absolutely smashed as he passes it but it's a forward pass
There's no real view of what happened by Adam Gee rules a knock on in the bunker
BUNKER: There's no way there is a try but Gerard Sutton wants to predominantly check the restart; He thinks that Luciano Leilua knocks it on
PENALTY COWBOYS: The Rabbitohs up inside the 10 and penalised by Gerard Sutton
Cam Murray loses the ball in good attacking position
Latrell Mitchell converts from close range
Keaon Koloamatangi runs straight at the line but it was the pass from Cam Murray to an angled run of Koloamatangi right and the dummy fooled Drinkwater as KK went over
Cody Walker notices the Cowboys backs are in the line and kicks in behind and forces a repeat set
Peta Hiku loses the ball in good field position
Peta Hiku loses the ball in good field position
Valentine Holmes from 10m inside the eastern touchline hits the conversion perfectly and the flags are up
First attacking opportunity and the Cowboys are over; Scott Drinkwater down the short side positions himself for a kick but pressure forces him to run and the space opens up as the Hammer draws in Latrell and finds Murray Taulagi to score
Lachlan Illias pass out to the right is a poor one and goes into touch
PENALTY SOUTHS: Valentine Holmes kick-off goes out on the full and Souths well and truly on the attack
Latrell Mitchell slots the penalty goal from right in front
PENALTY SOUTHS: Cam Murray lets go of the ball while Scott Drinkwater has his hands around it and because it's after held Gerard Sutton rules penalty; Pretty unlucky but technically the right call
Alex Johnston ruled to have had his boot on the line when he caught it but not sure that Gerard Sutton called it
Taane Milne loses the ball with a poor pass bouncing to him
First hit up for the Cowboys and they lose the ball as Souths attack
GAME ON! Gerard Sutton calls time on and Souths are looking expansive in set 1
We've had Bucked Broncos, Roasted Eagle, Burnt Dogs and now is it going to be Rabbit Stew for the Cowboys or are the hunted going to turn hunter as the Rabbitohs look to outsmart the Cowboys
