Latrell Mitchell Contract Discussion

[NT_Tiger]

How long do you think Canberra have taken to sign Wighton and still havnt done the deal? The T Brothers were in negotiations with Manly for months before they committed. Really think the reaction to the time frame is over the top.

Yes, but it was all the 'inside sources' saying it was done about a month ago that has led to the frustration.

Listening to and believing "inside sources" on an anonymous forum leaves yourself open to being fooled more than once.

Well when the most reliable of 'inside' sources that post on this forum are left without an answer, it demonstrates that it's not worth the angst of speculation piled on rumour piled on speculation.

Latrell may want to think about his future over Christmas with Family!

He's spent the past month with family.

I reckon he wants (and needs) to know where he'll be rocking up to training on Jan 6. He currently needs to lose about 5kgs going off recent photos.

If he's coming it gets announced this week. Otherwise he'll be playing with the Roosters in 2020

That's the thing isn't it. He has a contract and really doesn't need to sign anywhere at this point but will have to start training with the Roosters - as per the rest of the Roosters squad.

I think he decided he wanted to stay at the Rooster in that last month!!
Got denied and back square one.
I also think the whole testing the Market was just to rub his ego instead it back fired.

It’s dragged on this long and now talk of Madge on leave ??

Absolutely!

With Maguire Overseas I wonder what that means regarding 'the meeting' with Latrell Mitchell..

What’s he up 2

Hopefully scouting out some talent from the ESL. There is very little left on offer here if we’re going to improve our roster for next season.

It seems like forever already, saw this earlier and thought ild share lol

Souffs circling .. let's see how tough the Rorters are after they declared they would not release Mitchell this year to the Bunnies .. !!

Bunnies are now cashed up after the NRL released the Burgess salary back to them .. so will it be Arrow or Mitchell .. or both to the Bunnies.

Who says they’re circling? I’ve seen a number of news Ltd articles saying they are now real chances but I haven’t seen a direct quote or even talk of a meeting...seems that they’re just creating their own dialogue as they have nothing else to write about.

After the media beat up about Cleary tirned out to be true avo, im now a firm beleiver wheres theres smoke theres some sort of fire. Whether Souths sign him or not i dont know but i believe theyre either trying to work something out or in discussions of some kind atm.

Literally nothing ! It tells you nothing . Could be his planned leave from 13 months ago . Could be in the UK looking at poms . Could be it’s done and he is sipping Pina colada’s in a beach somewhere. Could be we now have 2 mil open after the JR mistake , and some absolute monster players are available.
Worst case scenario is next year we have a kings ransom to throw around after front loading mills worth of contracts.
Who cares it’s Christmas, just relax ! The drought will break ! And it is a drought . Zero players at the top end have signed . Not one of the top players.

Mitchell - unsigned
Wighton - unsigned
Arrow - unsigned
Fifita - unsigned
And that’s off the top of my head .
Just relax !

personally believe hes had enough time. If he hasnt worked out what he wants to do yet then perhaps he needs to look at who he has around him advising him.

Maybe take that as a lesson to take inside info with a grain of salt.

I’m over it now. Like all long sagas that involve this club, sooner or later I check out. If we sign him, great. If we don’t, whatever. Life’s too short to have something like this stress you out. Relax and don’t let it drain you out.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

People comparing him to Mundine. I see Jamal Idris. Potentially squandering millions of dollars because his heart isn’t in it.

By that logic you must be certain he's signing with us seeing as 90% of the articles written about LM suggest him signing with us is the most logical option?

No thats not what im suggesting. All im saying is something is happening, to what level i have no idea. The media are grubs. Generally speaking though they may be off the mark but they dont just pull things out of thin air and invent stories, the info they use is coming from somewhere. How many times on the forum have we read theres no direct quote so the story is all made up, only for the story to have an element of truth. I dont completely believe the media but i wont completely dismiss them either, no matter how grubby they are. They reported something happening at the tigers now they are also reporting souths might be in the mix. As well as the titans. Where he signs i have no idea but believe there is some level of truth to what is being reported, how much i have no clue.
