Stadium(s)
The match will take place at the impressive Stadium Australia, which is also known as the Accor Stadium due to a sponsorship agreement, which is the former Olympic Stadium built for the 2000 Sydney Games.
The stadium is a vast bowl of a ground that does unfortunately see plenty of fans far from the action due to the nature of its build and that when coupled with the huge 80,000+ capacity can lead to some poor atmosphere at the ground.
There should be a decent atmosphere for this one however with plenty of away fans in attendance and in its secondary role as the home stadium for the Grand Final, it has produced incredible atmospheres.
The stadium can be split into two separates areas, with both stands behind the sticks been a single tier that wraps around to form a lower-level bowl around the whole ground.
The two sides feature huge stands of multiple tiers with three main general access tiers and a corporate tier featuring the hospitality areas of the stadium.
Outside of NRL matches for the Rabbitohs, multiple other teams and the Grand Final itself, the stadium is also the home of the New South Wales State of Origin side.
Location
The Rabbitohs are traditionally based in the Maroubra district of inner-south Sydney, and it is there that the club still have their training and administrative facilites, but it is probably Redfern that the club are mostly associated with.
The club were first established after a meeting at the Redfern Town Hall way back in 1908 and it was the Redfern Oval that the club called home for much of its existence.
Overtime the club came to represent the Alexandria, Botany, Mascot, Waterloo, Redfern and Darlington suburbs of the city but the match will be played at their new home in the Sydney Olympic Park in Greater Western Sydney.
That is around 13 kilometres from the Sydney central business district and the district was formally known as Homebush Bay, giving the stadium the nickname of Homebush.
