    South Sydney coach Jason Demetriou expects to keep his job - despite another defeat in rugby league's NRL

    South Sydney coach Jason Demetriou expects to keep his job - despite another defeat in rugby league's NRL

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    The Rabbitohs are one-from-six for the season after a 34-22 loss to the now table-topping Sharks.

    Demetriou's future in the job has been the hot topic in NRL circles since last week's thumping defeat to the Warriors.

    He's been asked if he's planning to still be the coach next week.



    Meanwhile support from Warriors coach Andrew Webster for a late penalty that allowed them to force extra-time and snatch a 22-all draw with the Sea Eagles.
