The Mates’ Pledge

That's the message from the South Sydney Rabbitohs.

It's time for all of to take the pledge. By looking after our mates, we can all help to stem to the tide of alcohol-fuelled violence across our community.

See the powerful Mates' Pledge video below - featuring Rabbitohs stars Roy Asotasi, Michael Crocker, Nathan Merritt and Dylan Farrell.

Police Officers, Doctors, Nurses and Ambulance Officers are sick of dealing with the effects of alcohol-related violence.
