Too many barriers for cowards to hide behind in todays game, just look at Reed mahoney always going the niggle with front rowers most of whom would be itching to put one flush on his jawIt seems a bit intentional that he picks on all the nice guys in the NRL.
He's a bully that needs to be humbled. That will happen when he picks on the wrong person.
He thrives on the media limelight because it gives him a platform for his activism... yet doesn't seem to like the flip side.I believe that he lacks the fortitude to achieve that. Maybe some time out of the game & the media limelight would help..
I think maybe its time everyone stopped talking about
Fat lazy grub, textbook example of how far one can get on natural talent alone.
Joe Biden wouldnt even be aware his nappy is full of shit, let alone cure Latrine.Joe Biden is full of shit, there is no way that he could cure the cancer that is Latrine Mitchell.
Big call with Damien, but I can think of someone else that should be dropped.South's have dropped Tallis Duncan & Damien Cook for round 6

Dude will disappear into the annals of history. Could have been such a great of the game and a NSW hero, as a kid he had a future Inglis career written all over him. Just zero heart, fortitude and gumption. Best talent coupled with the weakest character set I've seen in the modern NRL era, maybe on par with a whinging Mundine come to think of it. He has the opportunity to heads down, bum up and have a redemption arc, but that would require all of those characteristics he doesn't posses. Such a shame.
[imo] as well Hb61 .Me too, but not sure that Klemmer has got any fire left in him. He just plays methodically these days with no real aggro in him anymore. (imo).
The greatest game is getting along and being good. We can't change the past.Winston, how can someone 'disappear into the annals of history'? You do understand that your statement makes no sense? Not to put too fine a point on it, but you either go down in history, or you can be forgotten by it, particularly when referring to to the 'the annals of history', which in a metaphorical case describes the concise annual record of the most important things that happened during a calendar year in ancient Rome. Maybe you went to Hogwarts, or perhaps you have access to disappearing ink.
Furthermore, I thought you were an historian AND an orator mate. Forget about Latrell, it seems like you're losing your rhetorical touch in your dotage. What happened to "We shall fight them on the beaches?". What happened to "Their finest hour"? Have a cigar and cognac and go to bed. You're finished.
Once rested, perhaps you could describe Anthony Mundine's lack of character in greater detail and how it is is related to the topic of Latrell Mitchell? From my perspective, Mundine was an amazing rugby league player and an even better Boxer. Didn't drink and never sexually assaulted anyone. Never took drugs. The same can't be said of some of his contemporaries. A friendly, funny man in private, and was a dedicated and successful athlete well into his 40s. I don't think you have adequately explained how that kind of record amounts to a lack of character. If you could convince President Roosevelt to join the Allies in WW2, I'm sure you can convince our forum colleagues of how Mundine's record amounts to a lack of character. If you mention that Mundine has said some foolish things I'll remind you that Tony Abbott was Prime Minister and Pauline Hanson remains a senator.
Apologies, maybe the boxing thing is a touchy subject for you Winston? After all, in 1911, as the UK's home secretary, you banned interracial boxing matches in the United Kingdom and its colonies. I wonder, what kind of perspective or underlying views of other cultures motivated you to implement a law like like that?
Latrell Mitchell is out of form, and is under intense public and private scrutiny. More so than his team mates and even his coach. Where is your comparison to Todd Carney? To Darius Boyd? or Mitchell Pearce? Sam Burgess? to the other HUNDREDs of (at times) wayward NRL stars who aren't black yet can be prone to controversy and violence both on and off the pitch.
Why do black players only get to be compared to other black players?? There have been plenty of wayward and controversial footy players who aren't black who have been forgiven, and even exalted for their - ahem, redemption arcs. Even beyond controversy, Eric Grothe Jr largely wasted his immense talent in preference to playing music in Shinobi and chilling out. Latrell Mitchell has won two Premierships and a World Cup already. Take your pills Winston
You use the term "Future Inglis'. But GI had his depression, his benders, and would need extra time off with mob up north and extra cultural awareness around him all throughout his most of his career. Joey Johns did the same thing in his own self medicating fashion. Jeez Winston, your double standards have double standards.
He's just a footy player. And if he continues to suck he won't get picked, just like everyone else and he'll likely leave the club and take the classic traditional route down parramatta road and end up at Wests Tigers. So careful what you wish for Winston.
I'm sure you were only giving @Winston Churchill a friendly rev-up Tigers, but this post is so well written with a perfect blend of history, humor etc.Winston, how can someone 'disappear into the annals of history'?
