Special Olympics ambassador and Rabbitohs forward Mark Nicholls played a big part in the day's activities and said he's loving life in his new role. 

"I'm thoroughly enjoying it, sports a wonderful thing its great to get everyone involved I'm a big believer in sports bringing people together," said Nicholls. 

"The benefits you get out of it mentally emotionally it was just great to see everyone get involved."

"We're very excited," said Fran. 

"It's going be a great game the Rabbitohs are up four games and the Bulldogs only two so it will be interesting to see whats going to happen on the day but I have to say I'll be putting my money on the Rabbitohs this year."
