Latrell Mitchell Contract Discussion

@GNR4LIFE

Can you link that? I thought he said something like LM would be something any club would want (paraphrasing).

If he did say it was a done deal, he's not the Chairman I'd hopped he be. Silly comment for him to make without a Signature.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Reading it back, I was a bit harsh. I was wrong. All good.

Dunno why people are quick to say ignore the media, the media have the same if not better sources then those here 'in the know'.

Even if we miss out on Mitchell at least we had a crack. We can't force him to sign with us but management have tried there best. Let's see how it pans out

We'd just have to take our million dollars somewhere else. What's Semi doing next year?

I find it funny some people say we shouldn't listen to the media then go and post what the media are reporting.

Thursday would be the perfect day for an announcement.

How so?

Best day of the year, November 28

My sons birthday too

I'd be putting out feelers even if we aren't genuine about him. The cows entertained Lattrel to get Holmes over the line.

Please settle down. There is enough in this thread to confirm we should have confidence in the mgmt of our club.

There is nothing in this thread that has any relevance re the management of our club. Paws this isn't a comment against only yours per se, but more of a greater issue which bothers me a bit.

In that I just don't understand why some fans constantly tell other fans to have confidence in our management and faith in our coach. Why should we? Phrases keep coming like "in Madge we trust". Why?

For all the good things that have happened and the exciting potential, we still have had disappointment after disappointment on-field for 15 years with no sign of let up. We have had multiple coaches who left in ignominy and left us worse off; we have had multiple failures re player acquisition and even worse failures re player retention. We have hope for better training facilities but our identity crisis still continues to ensure what can only be called a home ground disadvantage.

We are the team with the longest finals drought and most of us are sick to death of it.
We don't need fans to settle down.
Quite the opposite.

Rant over.

@GNR4LIFE if we miss out on him now it will make us look like complete imbeciles. We’ll be even more of a laughing stock than we already are.

Haha . What is the mole actually saying here though ? That both the tigers and Rabbitohs are annoyed that they’re being used against each other . Sounds to me like , he’s rung both clubs and found out that they both know the manager is playing funny buggers. There’s next to no actual confirmation that Souths are actually interested . Just theyer annoyed . Could be a last minute attempt at a price hike from the manager .

Ah come on. 'Missing' out on Mannah was much more embarrassing.

if nothing happens by wed , I think the tigers need to put there foot down and give him a dead line, he cant keep waiting for other clubs to come knocking at his door either he comes or he is told pee of.

I thought you were sure he wasn't coming anyway...?

 

[GNR4LIFE]

I said last week if it didn’t happen Last week it won’t happen. There is a reason he hasn’t made a decision last week. He’s waiting it out to give Souths time to get cap space and see if there are any other interested teams.

Mid last year it came out the change of manager made the Roosters think he was going to Souths.
I’d go to Souths if I was him also.

It’s sounding like if we want him it’s going to be a huge contract. I’d be walking away and seeing if Souths would release Gagai and Johnstone they would both be on contracts that won’t total more than 1.1m.

I can see us picking up some of Souths crumbs if they sign LM. Gaigai would be handy. I'd throw up a little in my mouth if we picked up Johnstone.

Make the deadline Wednesday

If he doesn't take it announce it to media we have pulled our offer

Rabbits can than massively drop their offer and he loses out

I'm starting to believe that the real reason we can't sign talent to the club is because we have bat sheet crazy fans. It's not the club, it's not the money, it's not the staff - its the bat sheet fans.
