Latrell Mitchell Contract Discussion

[Newtown]

@swag_tiger Maybe souths are thinking of off loading Johnson and Gagai to Wests Tigers. You know, just to help WT out.

All I can say is if JAC goes there - the rabbits become a lot more attractive for Latrell as they’re really really good mates off the field.

What are the odds that WT were never really in the hunt for Latrell Mitchell, that it was all an elaborate ruse to distract the media from our true recruitment strategy?

Pass the popcorn.

1,000,000,000,000,000 to 1

Just gonna put this here:

Bunnies boss Shane Richardson bizarrely suggested Mitchell should remain at the Roosters.

“We might be linked to him but we have never spoken to him, never spoken to his manager — I don’t even know who it is — and we have no interest in him,” Richardson told the Telegraph.

He might be lying through his teeth but I trust that over the mole.

@Newtown Please, no! The last thing we need if we don't get LM are Souths sloppy seconds. Gagai only shows up for SOO and Johnston is not better than the players we have. Besides, why should we free up the funds that allow Souths to buy Mitchell.

Wow everyone is so defeated all of a sudden. Still waiting to see one of these Souths posts...


Because a random poster on the souths forum is apparently more reliable than a random poster on here?

Weird everyone takes this random as gospel.

The only thing linking him to souths at the moment is this random forum post.

When did he say this? Is this recent?

@avocadoontoast

About a fortnight ago, whenever the Latrell to the Tigers rumours came up

 

[yeahcaz]

@teddy23 so that post now is pretty much meaningless

Souths also said they had no interest in James Roberts...

...and signed him two weeks later.

Bennet always instructs staff to say 'no interest'

 

[avocadoontoast]

@ElleryHanley perhaps we should do that too moving forward.

 

[HabboTiger]

Weeks ago

 

[tiga4eva]

I have no knowledge if we’ll get him or not. But if our Club has released Matterson and Marsters and didn’t have a concrete deal of a signing or signings that improved our roster........ then they are the most inept Management the game has ever seen.

 

[OzLuke]

@ElleryHanley perhaps we should do that too moving forward.

then the forum would be in an uproar as to why we are showing no interest in anything.....can't win either way hahaha

 

[TheDaBoss]

They r delaying the signing especially @GNR4LIFE

As he requested 🥳

 

[Bones]

I said before we were first linked to Latrell that I wouldn’t sign him based on his inflated price. I still believe that is true.

For $1M a season you have to be the best player on you team every other week. Latrell has only ever proved he can do it occasionally. For me he is only worth $1M when he has proven he can do it every week like Tedesco, Taumalolo and RTS.

At this stage I’d use $1M to pursue both Lomax and JAC. Far less risk IMO.

If we get him I hope he proves we wrong. If we don’t I hope he proves me right 😂
