South Sydney put St George-Illawarra’s finals dream in doubt

ST George Illawarra’s NRL finals hopes are on life support after South Sydney snatched a come-from-behind 26-24 win against their traditional rivals at the SCG.

The Dragons appeared home on Friday when Nene Macdonald crossed to give them a 10-point lead with 10 minutes remaining.

But the Rabbitohs scored two tries in the final five minutes and halfback Adam Reynolds nailed a sideline conversion to steal a famous win.

“I can’t believe that South Sydney have won this game,” commentator Greg Alexander told Fox Sports. “The Dragons just dominated, they would be stunned, like most of the Dragons supporters. “They would have been counting the points, moving themselves up to 30 competition points.”

The defeat for the Dragons opens the door for ninth-placed Penrith to move into the top eight should they win beat Wests Tigers on Sunday…
