Now its Graham with the double!
Wow some excellent footwork here from Campbell Graham.
He scoots around Karmichael Hunt in spectacular style and stretches his 6″5 body over the line for his second try of the night.
Reynolds gets the two to push the scorelines into the 40s.
We are 40-0 to the Rabbitohs after 65 minutes.
Some distressing scenes here…
John Asiata will be the latest Bronco to leave the field with a HIA after a head clash with Mark Nicholls.
Asiata hasn’t come up from the ground with the medicab now coming on.
Asiata will be stretchered off here.
Luckily we can see him moving his arms and fingers for the medics.
JOHNSTON DOUBLE!
Andddd Alex Johnston goes over again.
It’s Cody Walker again with the assist with AJ pulling the ball in from a bobble to go over the line. What a finish. It’s eight tries from three games for him now.
I’m calling it. It’s a drubbing.
Stats update
I’ll take advantage of this changeover to bring you the latest stats of the game.
The Rabbitohs currently have 57 per cent possession to just 43 for the Broncos.
But it’s the Rabbitohs coming up with the errors tonight – with nine compared to just six for the hosts.
If only the Broncos could capitalise on them…
…and they’re already over.
Look – on the bright side Broncos fans – now is a really good time to jump into bed for a solid Thursday night sleep.
Hame Sele displays some stunning footwork to step around Payne Haas and finds the tryline. It’s Sele’s first NRL try and the fourth for the Rabbitohs today.
We are 24-0 after 47 minutes.
We’re back on here at Suncorp…
The Broncos will have to do a lot more to change the momentum tonight.
The Rabbitohs were simply having too much fun putting pressure on Karmichael Hunt in five-eighth during the first half – so much so, Hunt has been shifted into left centre coming back on.
Let’s see if the shifts puts any brakes on the steam roller…
Braith Anasta on Pangai situation
Following up on the previous post, here’s what former Blues playmaker Braith Anasta had to say about Pangai’s potential move to the Tigers.
“He is a supreme athlete and at his best you’d want him in his side. But he’s a little bit unreliable.You don’t know what you’re going to get each week.
“If I’m the Tigers, I’m looking for a player where you know what you’re going to get every week, they’re going to put 110% in and they are going to lead by example and they’re going to be inspirational.
“Pangai could probably do that but we haven’t seen enough evidence of it.”
We’ve seen an example of that unpredictability tonight – with Pangai put on report for what looked like a crusher tackle on Cameron Murray.
Some more breaking news…
There are reports coming through that Tevita Pangai may have played his last game for Brisbane.
The Australian is reporting he has been given permission to explore his options on the open market.

Wests Tigers are said to be watching the situation with an interest to sign the forward, who could move before the August 1 transfer deadline.
It’s an interesting move from Kevin Walters – who just seems to be getting rid of everyone at the moment.
After last year’s off-field antics, perhaps the club simply thought he was no longer the right fit.
TRY! Rabbits get another one before half time
Okay, the Rabbitohs are well and truly on here.
A quick pass from Latrell Mitchell finds the hands of Campbell Graham and the Bunnies get their third try of the day.
It will be a mammoth effort for the Broncos can turn the momentum here.
We are 18-0 just before half time.
What a RUN from Xavier Coates
My goodness, we officially have the trysaver of 2021.
Xavier Coates just successfully chased Dane Gagai down after 90 metres less than a metre out from the tryline.
I don’t know how many Weet-Bix Coates had this morning, but there wouldn’t have been much space for milk.
