Triple A and footy lives on, listener. Thanks to McDonald's and Ream Hot Water. A listener production. He's over! This is... What a try! The Rabbitohs Clubcast. Coming up, the Bunnies pumped the premiers last night and the Jai Arrow tribute was a special moment to remember. Let's start with Triple M's post-match as Ashton Ward and Talis Duncan break down a night to remember. No one was any better than this fella, Ashton Ward. With you, Dave Riccio. Yeah, absolutely. You scored 48 points. That means the halfback's done pretty well. Well done, Ashton.
Ashton Ward 0:40
Yeah, there was a few moments in my game which I wasn't too happy about, but, you know, I'm happy with the team. You know, we all pulled together this week. We've been a bit disappointed in ourselves the last three weeks, so we really wanted to get together as a team and be connected. And especially the first time we had come out and started strong enough, I thought we did that. So, yeah, happy with the performance.

What were the highlights of the Rabbitohs' 48-6 victory?

Dave Riccio 0:54
talked to me about the motion before the game, and so too the lead-up this week. Just such a special moment for the footy club to come up with this great idea in and around the white-out jersey, firstly to start the week, but also as he's congratulated by the Broncos players, firstly the white-out jersey, but also tonight when Jai was able to ring the legacy bell.
Ashton Ward 1:16
Wayne touched on a little bit about what he's done for this team. He's always that player that no matter where he's playing or who he's playing, he always comes out and he's always going to be consistent. So we really try to do it for him tonight, try to be consistent. Obviously, like the last couple of weeks, we haven't been playing to what we can. So we really just want to come out today and put on a good performance for him.
Dave Riccio 1:37
How supportive has Jai been for your development as a footballer at South City, Ashton?
Ashton Ward 1:43
He's been really good to me. He's always good for a laugh and stuff around training. He also instills that toughness in everyone, not just me, but everyone. So I'm really grateful to be able to play with him for only the few games I've got to, but it was an honour to play with him.
Dave Riccio 1:56
The Bunnies have been slightly inconsistent over the last few weeks, but you'll want to start to hit your straps. Parramatta next week, Ashton. That's the goal. Keep rolling.
Ashton Ward 2:04
Yeah, we've got the boy. We've got the boy. Apology. And then we've got, you know, I think an 11-game stretch with no boys left. So it's going to be a big end to the season. But, you know, today's the start of hopefully, you know, really building towards our final series. We should hopefully get a few players back over the next couple of weeks, which will help. But, you know, I'd say it was a good start to a strong end of the season. Terrific win. Go enjoy it. Thank you. Appreciate it.
Dave Riccio 2:24
It's a huge win, Dave, because four and against is going to be a factor for South. They're going to be in that mix. It's going to be a log jam. And you talk about their next game against Parramatta. They'd like their chances there. Well, you never know with Parramatta. They can be cheeky.

What emotional tribute was paid to Jai Arrow during the episode?

Dave Riccio 2:42
But then Penrith at Combank. A game which could get 40,000. Newcastle, Sunday afternoon here. Jai Arrow's birthday. Souths have already started the plans for that. That's going to be one of the great days. And Knights flying as well. And that'll be after an origin. So Ponga might play in that game. Then they've got Canberra down there. I'm looking at this draw and... then they've got a nice run of games. If they're good enough, Wade, if they're good enough, they will make the finals.
100%. And I think they've shown enough consistency at the start of the year that they know the level that they're at. They dipped a little over the last three weeks. We heard Ashton Ward say that. But they've got the firepower. It's just that consistency in the hard areas of the games and their discipline. If they get that right, they'll go over anyone because they've just got class right across the park. And... They have something bigger than themselves now to fight for.
