They are missing five key forwards and are given little chance of victory - but Souths are planning an old fashioned ambush of premiers Penrith tonight.Without Keaon Koloamatangi, Tevita Tatola, Siliva Havili, Liam Knight and Shaquai Mitchell, the Bunnies look like cannon fodder up front for the Penrith machine.But the Panthers could be in for a shock if they think it will be an easy victory at Homebush."No one out there thinks we can win but that is what is spurring us on," a senior Souths official told Wide World of Sports."We are going to come out with all we have and hope to ambush them."They are a great team, but this year it's been shown that they are beatable."If we play at our best, we are a chance."They have a five-day turnaround and we have a week so that is something in our favour."To add to the Bunnies' woes, they are also expected to lose much-improved winger Izaac Tu'itupou Thompson with a knee injury.He is set to be replaced by the experienced Taane Milne.That could lead to an interesting situation tonight … the last time the teams met, Milne was sent off for an horrific high shot on Panthers forward Spencer Leniu in a spiteful affair in the finals, which Penrith won 32-12.
