ANALYSIS: South Sydney are aiming for glory in 2023. Can Lachlan Ilias take them there?
abc.net.au/news/south-sydney-rabbitohs-lachlan-ilias/102028960If this is to be the year South Sydney win their 21st premiership, it'll be because Latrell Mitchell, Cody Walker and Damien Cook get out of the way.Mitchell, Walker and Cook are each among the best players in their positions and when you combine them all together it creates an attacking force that few teams in the league can hope to match.
But for the Rabbitohs to get over the hump, they need second-year halfback Lachlan Ilias to have the courage, confidence and skill to, every now and then when the moment calls for it, take chances of his own. Souths think he can do it and, more importantly, so does Ilias."I could be more confident in taking opportunities. Maybe last year I was a little hesitant in doing some things and that's just on me, that's not on anybody else," said Ilias.
"It just comes with playing games, with experience and that sort of happened for me towards the end of the last year. I really got some confidence and I'm looking to build on that." Getting his rookie season under his belt, where he replaced club legend Adam Reynolds, certainly helped Ilias in that regard.
