GAME PREVIEW

The Wests Tigers may have improved dramatically in recent weeks, but they face their biggest challenge yet – a red hot Rabbitohs side.

The Tigers clinched back-to-back wins over the Panthers and Dragons, breathing some life into their season.

But they need to go further to match South Sydney, who are aiming for six straight wins and were declared Premiership favorites after a convincing win over Storm in the Magic Round.

However, the Tigers are bolstered by the return of star second-rower John Bateman after suffering a delayed injury last week from a hamstring injury.

Rabbitohs manager Jason Demetriou has kept the same 17 players as last week, with Liam Knight retaining his place in the squad after a successful return from a cruciate ligament injury.
