What's the odds Latrell bags a couple of meat pies this weekend.

Latrell back this weekend
Fullback

Considering Gray got injuyred last week, its no surprise. Would have been interesting to see where Latrell would have been picked if Gray had been fit.

 

[mave]

I hope Souffs play Latrell at fullback for the rest of time.

28 points. 8 out 9 games conceded. New NRL record . Rabbitohs

 

[Penrith fan]

Latrell looks like he has spent three weeks practicing for a "hot dog" eating competition.

Fat Latrell is the worst version of himself.

 

[Chimp]

This thread has done a 180 turn…. When the thread was firs posted, the answer to the question was unequivocally YES…. But now, I’m pretty sure is an unequivocal NO, as everyone thinks Latrell is a shit merkin.

 

[Captain Apollo]

Showed the same pea hearted efforts last night. He has learned nothing in his 4 weeks off.

 

[blue bags]

Latrell has nominated himself for origin
Fullback

 

[Penrith fan]

Maybe Origin would be good for him.

It would get him out oof the Souffs bubble which isn't working for him.

Some interesting commentary at the bottom of the article - I'm guessing it will be removed at some stage soon:

Despite two tries against the Dragons, questions about Mitchell’s effectiveness at fullback remain.

Jack Bird’s try in the 26th minute was evident of that.

As the Dragons spread the ball wide, Mitchell was just jogging across at fullback.

Had he been rushing across like Dylan Edwards does all the time, he would’ve had a great chance to stop the try.

In the 59th minute Mitchell didn’t get across again in time to stop second rower Jaydn Su’A diving on a ball to score off a grubber kick.

This has been happening for years. Go back and watch the highlights of the 2022 preliminary final.

It took 22 minutes for Mitchell to inject himself into the game and he did that when scoring off a Cody Walker grubber in behind the line.

He scored another off a Dragons mistake when the game was over.

And the cycle continues.

“They said ‘Latrell is like Mundine and the rest of them, a black whinger that needs to learn to shut up’.

“Cody was then called a “dirty dog”... After the fifth occasion, I called the man out when he said Latrell was a “black bastard” and when I asked him to stop he said “why should I, it’s my opinion” and he continued to repeat it.

“I then called security and he asked the man what he said. The man admitted to saying “black bastard” and more. The security then said to me “so what he didn’t say it to you”.

“The man that was [making the comments] then proceeded to leave the ground and I begged the security guard to get his details off him before he left.

“The security guard refused and threatened to kick me out of the ground because I called him an “idiot” for not doing anything.”



So, there is no one who is the perpetrator and unless the security guard somehow remembers the guy's name, there is no way to catch up with these people. Assuming they did racially abuse Walker and Mitchell.

Yeah this crap needs to stop, don’t care who the player or person is, absolutely no need to be saying that. I hope the NRL go hard and if it’s true about the Seccy then he probably shouldn’t have a job also.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

These racists are ruining things for the rest of us who just want to boo Latrell for being a grubby player and a fatty in peace.

Some people cry ist and phobe with such impunity I even wonder what’s even true and what’s not.

 

[Maximus]

That took longer than expected for someone to suggest it's a lie.

 

[Danish]

Hold on, it says Cody was called a dog. Is that going to be retroactively turned into a racist term now?

seems long

well it’s a crime being reported by a single person who doesn’t know who the person was and the person had disappeared when the cops supposedly arrived.

so forgive some of us if we wait for a bit more evidence than some chick going on a rant on their socials

Yeah I wonder how many people actually wait for evidence or just base their entire knowledge from a 20 second Tik tok video
