The Panthers kept their bid for back-to-back premierships alive with a 32-12 win, keeping the Bunnies scoreless in the second half after Souths had had the best of the first 37 minutes. But the reigning premiers scored twice in three minutes as Apisai Koroisau and Brian To'o crossed to level the score before halftime.
