@dice Yeah that's as bad as it gets. I'm a Souths fan but the book should be thrown at him sadly for Souths.
I'd say a 10-12 week suspension would be sufficient imo.
-
@african-monkey nah mate that was an origin hit…
With finals coming up and Souths in the mix, and one of the games marquee
grubsplayers, he’ll get a week or two and Bob’s your uncle, she’ll be right, just in time for finals -
@african-monkey Probably the worst tackle of the season.
Feel bad for Manu as his season is likely done. You never see him get that emotional.
-
@act-crusader More than likely, similar to Billy Slater in 2018...

It’s a disgusting hit and one clearly avoidable. Manu’s cheek and eye blew up immediately.
But no doubt we will hear every one in the book this week - “Manu was falling” “no intent” “it’s a tough game” “Latrell had turned the corner after his episodes off the field” “it’s finals time and you hate to see the ‘best’ players out” “he’s someone the young indigenous kids really love to watch”

@act-crusader All those lines remind me of 2008 when the media did everything in their power to get Cam Smith off his charge for trying to rip Thaiday's head off, thankfully it didn't work and it shouldn't this time. That shot is as bad as it gets.
-
@african-monkey never forget that. And the defence argument that Smith and his lawyers went in with was even more appalling.
Will never forget that blatant elbow to the jaw that Smith did on Kevin Locke years ago. Not even a raised eyebrow from the refs or commentators. Untouchable grub…
-
I hope Latrell gets what’s coming to him. Grub. Wouldn’t have minded a few of the Roosters guys laying a few punches on him at the end
-
Latrell Mitchell is thr biggest piece of shit in the comp and the way the commentators go out of their way not to call him out on it pisses me off.
That was a fucking dog shot last night that would look out of place in park football. If he plays again this season the NRL is fucked.
Apparently the only way to get sent off is to be a forward from an unpopular team. The ref last night was fucking useless and went out of his way not to punish latrell for all the shit he was doing. In the old days Mitchell would have got a fucking hiding last night, and I would have cheered, loudly.

It started last night "in slow motion" "no intent"
Fuck off, led with the shoulder at head height, and the only reason an arm was involved was as he swung it.to make sure if he missed with the shoulder he took his head off.
Manu was equal parts devastated and furious.
-
@mariner4life geez I agree totally
-
@mariner4life Manu is a pretty laid back player and like others I don’t think I’ve seen him fire up like that before.
I forgot one we’ll probably hear today - “Latrell has sent a text to Manu”

Yeah he looked reeeaaal contrite last night when he came back on, picked a fight then laughed his way through the handshakes.
Fuckhead

F**k me! Turns out this is a quick on the spot test to determine an eye socket fracture as per NRL Physio Best case 3 - 4 weeks, likely 6 - 10 #NRL

@mariner4life not to mention slamming the ball down within inches of a prone players head and slapping at his mate trying to calm him down. Gagai?? Any decent person would have apologised genuinely to a good mate he did that do asap. Not seek crowd support by hamming it up as if he was the victim for his binning. Trent Robinson should be thanked by the Nrl for his honesty so soon after the event.
