South Sydney Rabbitohs lose Sam Burgess to injury

A hamstring injury to Sam Burgess took the gloss off South Sydney Rabbitoh’s impressive 51‑10 victory over the Wests Tigers last night at ANZ Stadium.

Outside of Sam Burgess leaving the field, the match was one to savour for Rabbitohs' fans. Their backline did enough to suggest their title dreams are alive once again.
