Latrell Mitchell Contract Discussion

[OzLuke]

All our players and us have one thing in common...we are all Aussies. Maybe we could unite under that banner.

What about our players from NZ, Samoa and Tonga?

Ok how about "we're all one planet, why can't we just get along"?......

Wouldn't most of them be Australian citizens? If not, well yes they are an exception obviously.

Here is an idea for the Wests Tigers

Make every game important to the indigenous of this country
How about a Welcome to the country speech at every Tigers home game as recognition to all Aboriginals, thier land, heritage and Value to our great game and to Our club.
By doing this and showing some initiative in our game and as a club we may just attract players like Latrell Mitchell Josh Addo Carr and Cody Walker
If we all stand with them as a club and its supporters and show we care about their traditions and culture and we value that then we may be able to sign some of these players with less difficulty
If we do this and they truly value thier culture then what better club is there to sign with
We could do something also with our close Island nations which may also benefit the Tigers in the long run with signing some of their players
You only have to look at the number of players pledging there allegiance to their small Island nations to see what it means to these players
Don't underestimate Culture
We should embrace it



Great idea.. however “Tiger” doesn’t resemble indigenous Australia at all.
Feel this would suit the Rabbitohs much better then us, not sure why they don’t do it actually!

Rabbits are vermin. Tasmanian Tigers are indigenous

Maybe start by looking at the Wests Tigers Reconciliation Action Plan 2017-2019 and see where the club heads next?

Sponsors could jump on board increase their participation rates, look for increased government work where applicable for their own business opportunities.

Lots to consider, do more with KARI attract more Indigenous kids, make LM or JAC role models, invite old Indigenous players back and maybe then we start by attracting players to our club we currently want, then build on our fans with disabilities where we already work?

Increase our already growing member base?

so much testosterone. Men and their spears. Love it!

Don't forget the beer gut! ?

I wonder if they all sang the national anthem before spearing that fish.

 

[hsvjones]

Well didn't miss anything today after reading the last few pages...

Does anyone have any actual LM info and if / when is this meeting happening ?

 

[Telltails]

Acknowledging country is standard in all schools, funded community based organisations and in within the public service prior to any gathering. I can only see it as a positive and assume that it would be a key point in any RAP. It doesnt matter where you originate from it is about acknowledging the original custodians of the land that your organisation is gathered/ meeting/playing on and having ties with elders in our community can only be a good thing.

Alright, I've had about as much as I'm going to take in this thread so here's what's going to happen:

Stick to the topic and stop spamming this thread with crap or I'll close it. Simple.

Getting back on topic have you heard anything re: Mitchell you can share Willow?

 

[tony soprano]

Wonder if the guy with the drones could update us?

 

[Masterton]

Back on track guys I would say LM will either be with WTs or playing CC for the Rorters reasoning being that we have the cash the Rorters are not interested their used his sombrero space to resign and upgrade others on their roster I think its just a matter of time(probably this week)

It would be great if we could have more consistency from our 'ministrators, please :fa-smile-o:

I think they do a great job for free. By closing threads and deleting posts they make this the best forum in the NRL. Consistency I can live without.

If the chooks have spent his money really cant see where he will play next year. 2021 a few teams will be able to fit him in, although im not sure if this whole contract saga may have turned a few clubs off him, his options to play first grade seem to be dwindeling for 2020 may even be slim pickings for 2021.
