The Rabbitohs have reportedly made a tough call on coach Jason Demetriou's future after their latest crushing defeat.
The club has decided to keep Demetriou on life support for a few more weeks as they navigate through a crisis-filled season.
The team's morale took a hit on Saturday night after a dramatic 34-22 loss to Cronulla, where the Rabbitohs were left with just 14 players at one point.
The pressure has been mounting on Demetriou as the team has only won one out of their first six matches this season.
Rumors swirled during the week that the club was already considering potential replacements for Demetriou.
Kangaroos coach Mal Meninga added fuel to the fire by acknowledging the Rabbitohs' interest, although he claimed he had not been formally approached by the club.
The Rabbitohs now face a tough decision as they assess their options and decide on the best course of action moving forward.
It's a critical time for the club as they look to turn their season around and regain their winning form.
