Scott Drinkwater threw a perfect cut-out pass to Zac Laybutt, and Laybutt finished the move with a score against the Rabbitohs on May 24, 2026.
The play was captured in a brief match note first published at 4:19pm ET and updated a minute later at 4:20pm ET, underscoring how quickly the scoring passage was being logged as the game moved on.
It was the kind of movement that makes a short note tell the whole story: Drinkwater found the space, Laybutt took the chance, and the Rabbitohs were left chasing the result of a single clean shift in attack. The update time suggests the score mattered enough to be corrected or refreshed almost immediately after it was posted.
For readers following the match, that is the moment that changes the shape of the contest. A perfect pass can do that. So can the timing of a try-scoring play when the game is still live and every restart carries its own pressure.
What comes next is the next passage of play, and whether the Rabbitohs can answer the strike that Drinkwater and Laybutt put together. In a game measured by moments, this one is already on the board.
