Latrell Mitchell Contract Discussion

[GNR4LIFE]

Seriously, if you get Snake defending Pascoe and co, you know they've done something right.

Mitchell’s a flog ..ain’t worth 1 million

I said from the start this was a risky and very pricy attempt to solve our problem with so called a”Big Bang” recruitment.
When he didn't sign within a reasonable period the writing was on the wall for us. As someone already said we pulled the contract about a week later than what we should have done and in this period we very well may have missed the boat on a number of other fronts.
I know that some of us are disappointed but .... but believe me ..... we dodged a bullet.

Let’s go for Arrow and JAC, then Mitchell can sign with the Titans, and collect a few spoons to go with him premiership rings.

 

[TIGER]

Has he signed yet???
Hahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
You gullible fools!!!

I told all you fools from the start, players like Latrell Mitchell don't come to the Weststigers.
I really can't believe you actually thought it would happen.

Drone malfunction...

Someone is looking foolish..agreed..

Did you take my drone story seriously?

I genuinely think some people did, one of the highlights of this thread. And really, a summation of it.

Well if they did, it's confirmation that people will believe anything if it suits their bias.
Obviously I was just having a laugh at the whole situation.

My constant "has he signed yet" posts were also taking the piss out of everyone hanging on every piece of "news" to come out, I really enjoyed the whole ride.
Reading the stuff posted on here just shows how desperate we are to sign a quality player.

You are the first to incessantly whinge that the club is useless and mediocre and never do anything to change our forever 9th situation. They attempt to do so and the whole time you take the pessimistic route and dump on everyone who had hopes that it would come to fruition and that the club might finally be a place that could attract a player of LM's calibre. And then when it does fall through at the 11th hour you piss on the ashes of everyone's flamed out hopes.

Dick move.

You don't seem to understand the difference between "hope" and "belief"

I was all for him being a Tiger (after my initial reservations) I was "hoping" we'd sign him.
But I didn't "believe" we would.
Why?

Because players like Latrell don't come to clubs like the Tigers.
if you don't like that fact it's not my fault.

And it would have been fine if you left it at that. But you didn't.

Most of your posts in this thread have offered nothing except for sarcastic posts trying to get a rise out of people with a smattering of your actual opinion on the matter.

Because this whole thread has been a joke to me

Well there are many disappointed souls Atm , Mitchell was NOT what was needed at this present time at our club . Actions or non actions speak for themselves in this situation, the young man is a fine footballer but the entourage and baggage that he brings would of been a disaster!
For Pascoe he finally gets a pass mark for showing some leadership at long last ! I get the feeling today could well be the turning point for our club ... player agents and players from this day will know that the Weststigers are not push overs anymore .
Even though this decision to pull the contract leaves many with negative vibes towards the club ..personally with what has transpired over the last month with a forthright Chairman Employed and pulling a Multi million contract from one of the games brightest players shows me that our club is finally maturing .. with a COE hopefully around the corner a huge war chest of funds over the next 18 months to sign players to cement our club into top 4 contenders .
Do not despair in the not to distant future player managers will be ringing our club to offer there players . Today is the day I have been waiting a long time for .. mark my words today is a turning point in our club’s history! I am very proud how the club has handled this situation ! The line has been drawn ...

What other boats? The woman basher and Capewell are the only 2 players that have made moves over the last week. If anything, they've pulled the offer at the right time, so they can make a decent play at JAC if he becomes available.

You have a funny sense of humour then. I don't think I've ever come across a supporter with such high expectations, mixed with such low ones.

Ahh the emotions of the forum...Take the POM at his word and move on. Latrell wasn't the issue in all of this, it's another peanut manager thinking he can play clubs off of each other that's the problem.

You've made that painfully clear.

I don't believe that for a second, if Latrell wanted to be here he would have signed it's that simple.

He'll sign at Souths, where he was always going to end up.

Lomax seems settled at the dragons and our pursuit of Arrow and AJ from the Titans has hit a swamp. Also wasn’t Semi on our radar ....... and the prop from the Roosters? And that’s only the ones we know of.
Give me a break mate .... you could see a mile off about middle of last week that we were being stuffed around by this mob. And the fact that the Roosters let him go should point to the fact that for them he is “damaged goods” territory.

Brimson, Staggs and Papenhuyzen are the biggest name backs that have extended recently that I can recall. Curtis Scott may or may not be signed up with Canberra already. It's annoying that we were focused on Latrell and then got dicked, but I'm not going to criticise them for it.

I'm disappointed it didn't pan out, to say I'm upset is an overreach.

You're entitled to your opinion.

I reckon Megan Gale could offer you a round in the sack and you'd still find something to complain about.

So you honestly think Mitchell is sitting there right now angry at his manager because he really really really wanted to sign with us?

Did his manager tie his hands together and physically prevent him from picking up a pen?

You're delusional!!!!
If he wanted to be here he would be here, stop coming up with excuses why he's not, stop blaming others, he's not here because he doesn't want to be.

I know it's easier to swallow to say it's his managers fault, I know it protects your Tigers ego.

Geez some people on here are nasty, just because someone has a differing point of view.
