My favourite Latrell screw up of the round hasn’t been mentioned anywhrrr else (I don’t think). Midway through the second half Marzhew makes a break through the middle. I keep expecting to see the Souths ‘fullback’ fly into the picture to tackle him. After Marzhew has run 40m uninterrupted I guess Mitchell must have been in the line. At this stage Mitchell finally appears in the screen, with the break covering 50 odd metres already.

What the f@ck was he doing? (Points for the most creative answer).

It was a big brain move.

The guy was running towards him anyway, so why waste energy advancing towards him she n he could just wait near the 20?

Lol, looks like the Souths assistant coaches have realised it’s cover your arse time.

From Fox Sports https://www.foxsports.com.au/nrl/nr...s/news-story/fcfcda2d119e5150346481a3ac03161b


The Rabbitohs are reportedly facing internal unrest after it emerged coach Jason Demetriou hasn’t held star duo Cody Walker and Latrell Mitchell to the same standards as the rest of the squad.

According to the SMH, figures inside the club’s football department have reportedly made their concerns known to Rabbitohs officials.

Assistant coaches Sam Burgess and John Morris are also reportedly of the same opinion with South Sydney facing a crucial clash against the Roosters in Round 27 which will define their season.




Meanwhile, discontent with Demetriou has also emerged after players found out he had liked a fan’s comment slamming both Liam Knight and Jacob Host’s performances earlier in the season.

After his side’s loss to the Raiders in Round 13, Demetriou liked a comment which reportedly read: “We had @liam_knight and @hostyyy playing for us tonight. It’s a wonder we didn’t lose by 50 having those clowns pretending to be first graders.”

Over rated? Certainly.

I was just thinking if I were putting together an NRL ERA all star grub superteam, I'm picking Latrell at Fullback.

NAS is a certainty on a Prop spot also.

I get it, the realisation that Trell’s not the messiah but a very fat boy and your season’s going to shit, you’re a bit sensitive. I’ll continue shit posting, though
LOL, mate, learn to read.

Me saying "it's not like he's on a million dollars or anything..." was sarcasm. He IS on a million dollars, barely playing, and it's costing us big time.

Then I said we need a sarcasm button because you missed it in my first post, but to miss it again in the follow up.. boy oh boy.

It was a serious take down of how bad his lack of effort was , the evidence was damming
It's not effort with Latrell, it's fitness.

He had 20 runs yesterday - that's the most times he has ever run the ball in a match his entire NRL career.

He isn't fit enough to run it that many times and push up play after play. He just isn't. And it's costly.

Ok I’ll agree with it because you have a better take on it being the only Souths dude worth listening too on here

Trying to end racism and fat shaming. What have you done lately?
