Great players Morely, Spud , Chief , sure occasionally it went wrong but they set out to hurt the opposition for sure but they also tried to do it within the rules of the time .

Latrine on the other hand tried to push away Manu ( who was his team mate at one stage) and acted as if nothing has happened. There’s y the difference.
I dont dislike Latrell & I dont dislike any of the other 15 clubs.
Go the Roosters

I don’t mind any player being a grub, but Latrell showed absolutely no care or remorse when he saw the state Manu was in, that is the part that will be remembered about it, people will never forgive Cameron Smith for how he reacted when they paralysed Alex McKinnon either.

Not true for all I'm afraid.I for one hated his and others grubby crap and called him out on here for it .The difference is he took it to a next level that night.I reckon he was and is embarrassed and ashamed by his behaviour but his massive chip he carries to all things Roosters won't allow him to admit it or show remorse . Robbo .Joey and the family forgave him and you would expect nothing else from good people but that's the public showing .I would expect behind the scenes then there may be other opinions.

Anyhow judging by all the correspondence in this thread the hurt of Latrell moving on still hasn't eased for many.When Bryan Fletcher left us after winning the 2002 premiership and signed with Souths as captain no Roosters supporter gave a flying fig!!!

Mitchell has been a grub for a long time. Always resented being tackled, and very quick with a cheap shot. I'd really like to see how he goes when someone really gets in his face. I think he will fold like a pussy.
Got a huge ego combined with a chip on both shoulders. I don't see a long future for him. Not a fullbacks asshole and will be found out soon enough. Can't be fit carrying all that lard around. I don't think he can transition to the forwards.
Can't wait to see some of our blokes give it to him. He hides most of the time, but hopefully Rads can catch up to him somewhere.
