Rock and diamonds Canterbury winger Krisnan Inu continues to sparkle in the blue and white after nailing the match-winning field goal in the Bulldogs' thrilling 23-18 NRL win over South Sydney at ANZ Stadium tonight.
A week after starring on debut for his new club, having been unwanted by the
Warriors, Inu was given the responsibility of breaking an 18-18 deadlock five minutes from fulltime before David Stagg added a late try to propel the Bulldogs into the top four.
It was a remarkable win considering the Bulldogs trailed 12-0 after just 15 minutes and, even after Inu's one-pointer, they refused to quit as a desperate Ben Barba pushed Dylan Farrell into touch just short of the tryline to deny what would have been a remarkable Bunnies' win.
The Rabbitohs were searching for five straight wins and looked well on their way when Justin Hunt's early try was followed by Dave Taylor's crushing run to the line.
Sam Burgess attempted to flex some muscle from the ensuing kick-off but only served to turn the game on its head when he sparked a minor brawl as he ran the ball with arm raised into fellow Englishman James Graham.
