[Resurrected] Who's a better fulback - Latrell Mitchel or Tom Turbo

[40 nil]

Bennett says Mitchell's best position is fullback - signs of this in yesterday's game v Titans. Mitchell is a very talented footballer - just needs to work hard and apply himself consistently.

Bennett: Mitchell will do better at fullback than he did at centre

Wayne Bennett says fullback suits Latrell Mitchell and he will ultimately do better at the back than what he did in the centres for the Roosters

Well done Latrell Mitchell for tearing NRL heavyweights the Titans apart.

He’s like inglis, plays about 20mins per game, just got that lazy streak running through him

So Mitchell's best game at fullback was against the Titans, arguably one of the two worst performed teams currently in the NRL.

Lets just give him the NSW and Kangaroo's #1 jumpers now and be done with it huh.....

Well that's the end of that then.

I fear that Latrell is going to be one of those players that had a ton of potential but throws it away by either being lazy or getting himself into trouble.

He just doesnt seem discsiplined. Pains me to say it, but he is prob best playingunder Bellyache.

Tedesco is the standard atm. Tommy very close second and Latrell WILL improve and be pretty good. Not there yet but it will be foolish to write him off just yet.

 

[Will on the hill]

Tommy fluctuates between 7/10 and 10/10. Teddy is a 9/10 week in week out. Mitchell isn't in the conversation at the moment but if his brain ever catches up to his body he will be right up there.

Looking at the all stars match.

Mitchell is looking like big Artie Beetson. After Artie retired 🙂

Off-season of pies and sauce have got Latrell fighting fit LOL

I've watched the whole game and only seem him after the play stops.

latrine looks a bit like he has been using George Rose's cookbook and diet tips (or was it my imagination ?)

I mentioned here a couple of years ago that I saw Latrell has similarities to Beetson. Big Artie apparently came into first grade as a centre. The vastly more professional training nowadays has enabled Latrell to still function in the backs so far but he is a huge bloke with plenty of balls skills.
