The crowd has very much come alive!

PENALTY SOUTHS! And the players come together for a bit of shoving. Head clash between Kenny Bromwich and Taane Milne. First threatening set in a while from The Dolphins, but it ends terribly.

23,280 is the official attendance here in Brisbane

NO TRY RABBITOHS! Cody Walker with a beauty of a pass for Alex Johnston, but it was forward and Johnston went out anyways. But it'll be a penalty for late contact on Jacob Host regardless. They'll take a simple shot at 2

PENALTY SOUTHS! They'll start the set from inside their opposition's half

Kodi Nikorima gets this kick wrong, it goes absolutely nowhere and now Bunnies have field position.

Kodi Nikorima kicks his 6th or 7th high drop punt into the Bunnies right corner

A hint of a hip drop in that tackle, but play on. Keaon Koloamatangi is up and about

Time off for a Keaon Koloamatangi injury

Rabbitohs back up the try with a 70m set, and trap The Dolphins right on their own tryline

There is some controversy over this try upon viewing of the replay, there may have been a push in there from Campbell Graham. Still, try confirmed

DROPOUT DOLPHINS! Bunnies go the length of the field in one set, and it ends in bizarre fashion. Latrell Mitchell kicked the ball into the upright on the last, before Alex Johnston toed a second kick through and forced the dropout

SIX AGAIN DOLPHINS! Back to back sets to start the second half for the home side, the Rabbitohs couldn't deal with the first kick of the second 40

We're back underway, and it's The Dolphins who get first use. They have an 8 point lead to defend in the next 40 minutes, and it'll be a far from easy task.

HALF TIME! See you back here soon

Latrell Mitchell very nearly sets up a try on the stroke of half-time, but that'll be all

RABBITOHS FEED! A messy passage of play ends in a Dolphins kncok-on, so midfield scrum for the Bunnies with 20 seconds on the clock

SIX AGAIN DOLPHINS! Rabbitohs will do well to hold them out here

Kenny Bromwich with a great pass to put Euan Aitken through a gaping hole, but he bombs the pass to beat Latrell Mitchell at the back. They'll get another set though, Bunnies ended up knocking it on

Taane Milne does well defusing another challenging kick. He's certainly being targeted tonight

PENALTY DOLPHINS! Kodi Nikorima taken late by Cameron Murray on the last, so The Dolphins will take a shot at two points from next to the sticks

This game has jolted alive! Some great footy on show here, both sides beating tackles and throwing around offloads

The tide seems to have shifted immediately following that Rabbitohs try. Everything is working for them at the moment. Another huge break, and they're back on the attack!

Dolphins hold on somehow. They're doing the hard yards in their own half

HELD UP RABBITOHS! Jacob Host gets very close.

HELD UP RABBITOHS! Latrell Mitchell almost gets the ball down on the 2nd tackle

PENALTY RABBITOHS! They'll get their first proper attacking chance, thanks to an accidental offside by The Dolphins when trying to defuse a kick

The Dolphins again finding themselves well inside the Bunnies' territory on the last, giving them plenty of opportunities for attacking kicks. Surprising that it's still only 6-0

RABBITOHS HOLD ON! Isaiya Katoa kick on the last doesn't do much for his side.

DOLPHINS SCRUM! The Dolphins shifted it left on the last tackle, and Robert Jennings found some space on the edge before toeing a kick through that couldn't be handled by the Bunnies scrambling back to clean up. They'll do well to hold them out here

Half a chance for The Dolphins! They're still on the attack thanks to some enterprising footy

Kodi Nikorima with yet another high drop punt on the last, but this time it's Latrell Mitchell who defuses it. Dolphins look dangerous with ball in hand, and Souths are struggling to make metres through the middle of the field

Both sides are getting into a rhythm now. Set for set, back and forth, tackle after tackle. It's entertaining stuff - it won't take long until someone cracks

Kodi Nikorima with a carbon copy of his earlier kick that led to a Dolphins try, but Taane Milne takes this one under a lot of pressure

The Dolphins still very much on top territory wise, the Bunnies haven't seen their oppositions' side of the field at all with ball in hand.

Jeremy Marshall-King almost buries over on the last tackle, but he turns the ball over. South Sydney now working it off their own line

PENALTY DOLPHINS! Jeremy Marshall-King wins a 4th play high tackle penalty for his side. An attacking set to come from The Dolphins, they start at their opponents 30m line.

Measured opening set from Souths, Cody Walker kicks from inside his own half

Ashley Klein starts us off in the middle, and Round Seven is a go! It's the South Sydney Rabbitohs who have the first use of the ball.
