🏉 South Sydney won the game. Then lost it. Then won it.
On the back of a masterclass from fullback Latrell Mitchell and his mate at five-eighth Cody Walker, the Bunnies got one over old enemy Penrith by scoring two tries in the final five minutes to down Penrith 20-18 in a Thursday night classic at Accor Stadium.

🇦🇺 The teams are in for round six's Friday and Saturday matches, as well as the extended benches for Sunday and Monday (AFL)
🏏 David Warner has been included in the Australia squad for the World Test Championship final against India and the first two Ashes Tests with England.

🐴 Brazil's superstar jockey Joao Moreira has declared: "I will be back!"
Moreira, who has eight rides at the Hawkesbury stand-alone meeting on Saturday, has indicated he wants to return to Sydney racing later this year.
The champion jockey has made a huge impact since coming to Sydney late last month to ride at The Championships at Royal Randwick.
Although Moreira returns home to Brazil in less than three weeks, he is already planning on another Sydney riding stint later this year – but admitted it will be a "family decision" if he decides to permanently relocate here. (racenet)

🇦🇺 Todd Goldstein is set to become the sixth player to reach 300 games for North Melbourne this weekend, opening up on his journey to the milestone.
Goldstein, who was taken as Pick No.36 in the 2006 AFL Draft, first debuted for the Kangaroos in 2008 and has stayed loyal to the club since.
Speaking to media on Thursday ahead of North's Sunday afternoon clash, Goldstein admitted that he had always wanted to remain loyal to the club.
"I was always very open that I wanted to be a 300-game player for this footy club, I probably didn't, think it was possible over the last couple of years but that was always a goal of mine," Goldstein told reporters.
"Loyalty and being a one-club player is a big thing to me and a big thing for my family so I think that was something I've always dreamed of."
