Round 6 Team News: Side Updated for Good Friday Clash
The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs return to the field to host the South Sydney Rabbitohs at Accor Stadium on Friday 4 April, kicking off at 4:05PM AEST in Round 6 of the 2023 NRL Premiership.
After clinching a golden-point win in Round 5 over the Cowboys, the Bulldogs will look to continue on with their best start to a season since 2016, when they line up against the Bunnies in the annual Good Friday clash.
A series of injuries will see some of the Club's young talent step up to take on the opportunity of a lifetime and hunt down some tries.
NSW Cup star feature and prop, Harrison Edwards has been named to make his 2023 NRL start and will be looking to follow on in rookie Paul Alamoti and Jacob Preston's footsteps to make his mark this season.
Kurtis Morrin and Josh 'Grub' Reynolds will also run with the pack again on Friday afternoon, while Club Captain Ray Faitala-Mariner and Viliame Kikau remain sidelined due to concussion protocols.
Fan favourite Jackson Topine has also been named to make his start from the bench.
Coinciding with the Easter Show, Sydney Olympic Park is set to be transformed for a day full of family-fun activity. Be sure to get along early, join us for the Good Friday clash and help us flood Accor Stadium with Blue and White.
