Latrell Mitchell Contract Discussion

[Mighty_Tiger]

Jake Friend today quoted as saying he expects Lattrell to make a decision "over the Christmas break"....zzzzz.

Wouldn't take that as gospel though.

I'm sorry but we honestly can't wait that long

We need to be making any moves for 2020 now

The fact we don’t have an offer to LM means we can still make formal moves for 2020.

We have as much time as it takes to use our cash. If that’s LM or someone else.

I’m not confident that we will use our cash at this rate but hope I’m wrong.

Maybe Maguire has gone to England to look for a quality fullback.

The thought has crossed my mind.

Jonny Lomax anymore?

I’ve had enough of the name Lomax.

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.

Agree and I dont.

Finalising a contract can take a while but in our case he is hanging out to see if there are any other offers.

He doesn't want us and I dont want him especially if it is o. Premium dollar's

If there were other offers they would already be out there. Tigers offering top dollar. If it’s about money, he will put pen to paper this week.

My feeling is that Latrell will stay at the roosters next season with a big $ deal in his pocket to go to Souths in 2021. He has never shown interest in coming to WTs and our management know it thats why we pulled the deal and are looking elsewhere.

Going over to bring back lolohead, naiquama and mahe

It’s an active market

 

[finnzo]

How would we feel if he came back Sam Tompkins? I’d be thrilled it was a few years ago he’s getting on now

So you’re saying he won’t be going to Souths?

Not for 2020. Cant move the players.

What's slowing him down then?

 

[Spud_Murphy]

I’m feeling the same

I think everybody is.

I just hope Madge can do some good scouting overseas and come up with a gem or two like Canberra did with Hodgson & Bateman 👍

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Lol why’s everyone convinced he’s scouting players. It’s xmas, he’s probably on holidays.

 

[avocadoontoast]

Exactly. What’s the bet we take Johnston and/or Gagai off their hands so they can get LM.

So the latest is

He wants to sign with us for 2020 for 1.2m or so than rack off to south's for the rest of his career

You said in a recent post that he is starting to look like a 34yo Owen Craigie

That means we would be paying him overs to get fit for south's

I say he either commits long term or gets stuffed
