South Sydney Rabbitohs star Latrell Mitchell is set to make his long-awaited return to the NRL after recovering from a pre-season hamstring injury. In a strategic move, Mitchell will debut at left centre in the upcoming match against his former team, the Sydney Roosters. This adjustment led to Jack Wighton shifting to right centre, aiming to bolster the Rabbitohs’ backline strength.

Mitchell, 27, has primarily played fullback since joining South Sydney but has previously excelled in the centre position for both state and country. His most recent appearance in the centres was during the 2019 grand final with the Sydney Roosters. Rabbitohs coach Wayne Bennett emphasized the importance of Mitchell’s versatility and the team’s need to adapt to injuries, particularly with winger Alex Johnston sidelined due to a shoulder issue.

Jack Wighton, who joined South Sydney in 2024, has agreed to the positional change to accommodate Mitchell’s return. Wighton has previously played in the centres for Australia and New South Wales, bringing valuable experience to the role. His flexibility and team-first attitude are expected to enhance the Rabbitohs’ attacking options.

The Rabbitohs have shown resilience this season, maintaining a 3-1 record despite several key injuries.
