Arrow dodges a bullet and set for Anzac Day return in rare good news for Rabbitohs [Video]

There was some rare good news for South Sydney during the week when Jai Arrow passed a crucial fitness test on his shoulder that could have just as easily ended his season.

Arrow injured his left shoulder in Las Vegas, but opted for a steady rehabilitation process rather than going under the knife and missing the season.

The representative forward arrived for training on Wednesday knowing if his shoulder failed to survive a gruelling defensive session, his year was done.

Arrow not only survived, he declared himself a starter for Thursday’s Anzac Day clash against Melbourne.

His return could not come at a better time for Souths, who have lost prop Junior Tatola for up to three months with a foot fracture, not to mention Latrell Mitchell’s three-match suspension.
