Is it just me who thinks Latrelle is a waster?

[DavidM]

Some absolutely brainless play yesterday , some of which he seemed to find amusing 

[Anita Bath]

Goes back to what Gus Gould said about him…a tremendous talent who doesnt respect the game but expects respect from the game.

Couldnt we get Union to pay a fortune for him? That might play to his ego. He is going nowhere fast in TGG.

[StandOffHalf]

He should have been marched for the raised elbow on Johnson.

If that's not a send-off, what is?

Much more dangerous than something like Dom Young jumping out of the line to put pressure on and going up a bit high - and a thuggish, bad look for the sport.

One point that's not made on here, is that if you get any suburban train with Australian boys or girls you may be surprised to note the conversation seems not be be able to be conducted without using F£@##&& in almost every sentence.

Less F-bombing more like F-carpet bombing with only the ever increasing number of South and East Asian children able to hold a normal conversation.

At Leichardt on Saturday on the hill though there was no air of menace or trouble between fans but the game was conducted to a barrage of F-bombing which passes for banter in Aussie yobbo culture.

It's a society problem and it's pretty rich for Australian journalists, many of whom engage in a bit of "banter" themselves and think themselves lovable larrakins fir doing so, to virtue signal about such uncouth language from a player who has a microphone shoved in his face straight after the final hooter has gone on a loss.

That's not excusing Latrell Mitchell, but it puts this confected furore into context. 

As I said earlier in this thread, Latrell is a lighting rid for controversy in the Goldfish bowl of the NRL.

He needs to spend a couple of years in Suprr League where to the vast majority of the population he will be Latrell who ? and will enable him to develop sporting life skills thst could rescue his wayward career.

 

 

 

 

 

There is plenty of swearing on our heartlands too mate but I can't recall many interviews of players using such language 

Everybody knows when they can and can't swear ...even on field directly after a loss 

He's a flog
