A recent press conference following the Rabbitohs' dismal defeat to the Warriors has shone a spotlight on the deep-rooted issues plaguing the struggling club.
One recurring critique of South Sydney this season has been their apparent lack of pace on the field.
However, when it comes to sidestepping tough conversations, they have proven to be as quick as a prime Nathan Merritt.
It's no secret that the Rabbitohs have been skirting around accountability, avoiding confrontation, and putting off facing the music.
The leadership void at the club has become so glaringly obvious, it's like a red card waving in front of your face.
In the game of Rugby League, as in life, facing challenges head-on is paramount.
Unfortunately, South Sydney seems to be stuck in a scrum of disarray and dysfunction, desperately needing someone to step up and lead the charge towards a brighter future.
