Well said There was some bad intent by Latrell To literally break one of your best mates face open in such a vicious and cheap manner is a stain he'll have to carry for a while
100%. Litrell is one of the don't-care-at-all type player I have ever seen in the history of NRL. Very sad to see Joey Manu coming to confront him as his mate with that injured face.

In isolation you might argue that it was accidental. But the way he carried on like a bell end even after ending Joey's season lets you know where his head is. The guy just can't control his emotions.
He's got into niggles and fights and square-ups repeatedly. The problem is he's got this huge natural talent but his ego has not grown up/kept pace. He can't concede his mistakes or when he's in the wrong for his contribution - it's stepping up to the plate when necessary and taking responsibility and setting a GOOD PRECEDENT for everyone eg communicating when you got something wrong. Then it solves itself. Someone needs to MENTOR Latrell on his mentality. Great player and not the only one either but a big talent takes more of the lime light. I can't tell about the intention, probably reckless because he has too much ego in what he does - that's the root of it eg the above track record. For sure he wants to dominate and that's fair but the trend is there also. I hope someone mentors him because he's probably a decent bloke like 99% of people given a chance.
Definitely not to fight,he was upset and wanted to know why.I felt the hit sitting on the lounge & instantly felt for Joey.I am a Rabbitoh supporter but you have to call this out for what it is.Latrell not only injured Joey & ended his season but he ended his own as well which is a damn shame because we need his passion & skill .Get well Joey.
When Corey Harawera Naera hit Jerome Hughs head high, he felt bad at impact, and when he was getting sent off he still went over to make sure he was algoods. Accidental or not, atleast check up on Joey after he KNEW his shoulder hit is head. Carried on when Joey went up to him.
@@davidstarrett8367 on the field he was still giving Joey lip after his face was munted. If latrell did that to anyone on accident he would feel at least a little bit apologetic but he just kept going at him
Thats a dirty play thats not a normal reaction lifing your elbow like that swinging around like that only 1 thing could of gone wrong then but because there was no permanent injury its brushed under the rug had this not of happened we wouldn't of seen that clip again
You get sent off for accidental contact, but you get to play on for reckless or intentional facial fractures so long as you're the NSW press packs' latest poster boy for the game.
The trouble with Mitchel he too full of himself.There was no need for him to go in for the tackle Manu was covered it was just vicous hit with no remorse and the League should do something about it.I don't think Mitchel would like the treatment he Manu Its time for him to really stock of himself.he has cost the Bunnies a chance of finals Idiot
If you watch this in slow mo from all different camera angles; you could tell it was intentional. Latrell knew what he was doing... he isn't stupid for not knowing either.
One thing I know for sure. Latrell did not make any public apology. In contrast, Manu's family asked the public to back off Latrell. No remorse even after he'd seen what he did. In contrast to Raider's Corey Harawira-Naera who immediately apologies to other Storm's players then Hughes himself. No respect, we don't need those players in NRL, a lot more players will be hurt.
@@leejayhero1635 He is one arrogant bastard. Nothing to do with being indegenous, there's a lot of indegenous players that are decent. - one is clearly not one of them.
He didn't just not apologize he threw the ball down at roosters players after scoring, the NRL holds people like Latrell up as heroes to indigenous communities then wonders why the murder and violent crime rates are so high for them. Just like how he avoided charges for illegal guns and taking camping trip during lockdown. Whilst Paul Vaughn loses his contract for having teammates he trained with earlier in the day over for a BBQ.
Worst thing about this is I’ve stuck up for Mitchell when people call him a grub and a dirty player but now when he does this and to an old team mate he played along side is meant to be a mate he can get fucked now for all I care I can’t wait to see the next game when the roosters play the rabbits he is going to have the biggest target on his head!
I agree, Latrell is a joke, no need for it, Manu is one of the most humble players in the game. + ex team mate !! I hope he gets a taste of his own medicine
Mitchell just plays hard every1 knows this isn't a sport for the softy and sooner or later you will get injured some way only play of Mitchell I didn't like was the nofaluma incident
Totally agree Vankruze, take a look at his highlight reel jessie jane, he takes offence to being tackled by anyone and lashes out with his feet everytime, they are grub tactics
100% Just look at the way he entered without arms shows nothing but an attempt to cause harm. This is not the first time he’s done this and if he doesn’t change he’ll continue to repeat the behaviour as seen throughout his gameplay. No doubt he has talent and class, but a player with such bad conduct cannot be allowed to continue being an active picture in the NRL. It’s not about being soft, it’s about not cause life and/or career ending injuries
Damn right bro.Once committed there is no pulling back or you going to get hurt.Its not reckless it's careless but this stuff has been happening since the game began.Its not the 1st time & won't be the last as you would expect in a contact sport.Go in soft or half hearted they be running at you all day.

Manus face hadn't come up at that time, it takes a few minutes. And when Latrell was sent to the sin bin and on his way back to the field he was being FULL ON abused by the Roosters bench
Like the convo. It was intent to hurt. like every player would to win but that intent was reckless and careless and to me watching lateral through out his pro years definitely has an Anger probs. He’s a grub talent but he’s wasting it
Latrell had no remorse even though he was in the wrong, whether it was intentional or not. I'd say the same thing for any player who suffered a blow like that without the opposing player suffering from any backlash? It's bias and unfair. How was he not sent off, I'm very curious? Joey has every right to be angry, It's just a shame. I respected Mitchell Laterall, a ferocious player, but he was out of pocket there. At least shake the man's hand and own up, if it wasn't intentional? Bloody hell. You know what else does my head in, insensitive people like Mark Nicholls who laughs it off 1:10 "Settle down" after seeing what his mate did to Joey, disgusting behaviour.
@@puggzz988 Yes that is also true he has so much potential to be greater then G.I but keep playing the way he is no one will want him because hes being a dickhead
What annoys me the most that because Robbo speaks the truth he gets fined. It’s about time the nrl and the referees start owning up and realise that when they err they should cop the criticism. The nrl are the only ones bringing the game into disrepute by their incomplete and their higher than thou attitude.
Yet defended Radley that night when he went on a on field crime spree. Got charged with five counts in one night, sent off twice for 10 and Robbo defends him.
@@brettannesley5741 look at the bloody game again against the broncos, reported 4 times. 2 didn’t have issues and the other 2 others were first contact on shoulders

Add that to the current suspension of attacking the legs of an opponent and got himself kicked off a flight on the piss, had a fight in at a party in Byron and should have been sent off when he ripped Munsters head off against the Storm back in April. Robbo needs to pull him in before he ends up in the same position as Latrell.
@@brettannesley5741 mate, when you have players like Radley, Hetherington, Mitchell and the likes you know their game style is going to get them scrutinised more than any other players. The fact of the matter is that the linesman, referee and Perenara screwed up big time. You ask any of their team mates if they want to see Radley, Mitchell and Hetherington to change their style of okay. Along with their coaches I’m sure you will find that they woul want them to change. When are people going to go after the system that is causing a lot of the problems. The whole system from the match review, judiciary the bunker and the systems all need to be blown up and reconfigured asap. You mentioned Munster who also is pushing the boundaries, he is the closest thing to a grub on the field.
100% Latrell went in with intent. Compare this with CHN's shoulder to the head hit on Jahrome Hughes the other week. Immediately he knew what he did, and went to help out Hughes with remorse. Latrell? None of that, he got straight up and wanted to fight when the Roosters players gathered around, showing no remorse and being unapologetic. Even when the referee came over he was still defending himself that he hadn't done anything wrong. Grub
How about 13 people from the other team rush you and see if you can keep your cool. Shut up you coward and keep watching from the comfort of your couch
@lucasparsons6933 confused and concerned? What's confusing about leading with your shoulder and making contact to your opponents head? Full intent to hurt him. Nothing but a grub.
I agree latrell is my fav player but honestly the speed he was going already leaning in there no possible way for him to not hit him so i think its accidental i do go for roosters too
None of it matters now. Manu out with a fractured check, and Latrell out for 6 weeks. The real question is was it worth it. To say that there was no intent to hurt indicates how little you know or your just a schill. The intention to hit hard so as to not run as hard the next time is and always how you go in for a tackle mostly. Hoops is a dreamer who thinks that players go into a tackle thinking rainbows and unicorns. What mindset does he think doing the biggest hit ups and biggest hits players have when running or making a hit? Has he not watched a single game of Origin? This guy makes a living talking about Rugby League? That's the kind of answer that reminds me of the decision making of the officials that night.
@@shannonavery9449 Which part? They both won't be playing. That's pretty much a foregone conclusion. The question they posed was "Did Latrell intentionally try to hurt Joey?" In the context of their question it doesn't matter one bit, neither player will be playing to make a grand final. However you may feel, it's not going to change the fact of what's already happened. I mean why even ask that question. The more concerning question is why did the officials not notice it at the time? Why did it take Manu to approach Mitchell twice? Speculating on something that no one but Mitchell can answer was just a waste of time that changes nothing and distracts from asking about what a terrible job the officials did. You have to wonder if it's them who are intentionally drawing away focus from the officials.
Let's be honest here, that was never an attempt at a "tackle". Latrell flies in high, late and leading with the shoulder and a swinging arm INTO THE FACE of Manu. Saying he "didn't mean it" or "it was a split second decision" doesn't absolve Latrell from responsibility remotely. If I hop onto the highway in my car and start zipping in and out of lanes at 200/km per hour, and then make a split second mistake that wipes out an entire family, then if my only defence is that "I didn't mean to do it and it was just a split second mistake" the cops will rightly say that I never should have put myself and anyone else in the position to begin with. It's an extreme analogy, but it feels warranted given some of Trell's defenders don't appear to understand the issue here. The fact was Latrell created this mess by creating the danger in the situation to begin with. If he had attempted to lower his body height and wrap his arms around Manu in a LEGAL tackle then we wouldn't be having this discussion, but he didn't do that, and instead opted for a highly dangerous ILLEGAL tackle that put his opponent in hospital. It was a clear cut send off and frankly he should have got 15 weeks rather than 6.
lol what a weak excuse, gagai was barely holding manu, fatrell could see manu was about to get an offload away so he tried to put a reckless shot on to make him lose the ball
@@clairegrey-sinclair8691 So after all the years he has played League he doesn't know not to lead with shoulder / swinging arm into an opponents head??? I guess poor Mitchell is just a slow learner -yea right.
@@clairegrey-sinclair8691 Look man it was a reckless tackle & intentional this is not hating on Latrell at all cause he's one helluva player but that was a dog move & low asf & you know it...
You can't expect an overweight centre playing out of position to have the necessary control needed for safe fullback play, especially under manic Vlandyball speed. Two wrongs were bound to not make a right.
He is a grub and all these incidents this year have been cheap shots, now he has to live with costing the bunnies a chance at winning a premiership. I hope he does change his ways next year as he is still an exciting player to watch.
Ref: I’m penalising you Mitchell: wHY? Why? Oh I don’t know maybe because of the fact that you fucking broke Manu’s jaw. I can’t believe he said why, Mitchell is a grub and a thug
Did the same thing to Gagai in state of origin.Went at him like a bull outta the gates.And he plays at club land with him.Wasnt personal he has1 speed & that's full on.Take no prisoners it's a contact sport.
Manu's body fell at least half a foot in the second before the impact. Latrell wanted to hit him hard, that's for sure, but he wasn't aiming for his head.
I’ve made many comments about this boys attitude for several years. Sometimes he’s been in a good environment, been positive and enjoying his football. And so were we. Other times he can wander around the field like a time bomb. I appreciate an aggressive player. But this boy cannot control this aggression. The world does not owe him any advantage on the field. And if the advantages aren’t in his favour, his attitude changes, he thinks he’s been hard done by, it doesn’t give him the right to let loose the aggression that he feels. That is…..belt someone. If this boy was Les Boyd, Mark Gyer he would have, should have been sent off for a season. Don’t get into the colour of the skin business, it’s not worth it!!!! The boy has a what about me attitude, the world owes me and I’m gonna show ‘em. Even to the point of belting his mate. He’s lost me.
Latrell definitely has an attitude and is very agressive + passionate on the field. What I will say tho is that the shot was not with intent to HURT. It was him protecting his tryline with bodies in motion coming at him. I dont like how he slammed the ball on the ground after his try later on, but this shot was meant to stop Manu.
It WASNT intentional the shot. It was careless, wouldnt say reckless, but definitely not intentional. One other thing that I can point out about Latrell is I don't agree with him slamming the ball on the ground after he scored that try. Even if he is sorry to Manu about the shot, that might work against him. But back to my point, it was careless the shot, NOT intentional
@@tedsertori9282 a shoulder charge to the head to a guy pretty much tackled after the ball is gone. Not intentional? I think Latrell knows what he's doing.
@@thatgnaralooguy Manu is a freak of nature, one of the best centres in the game. Its not conclusive that he was "tackled", and as a fullback, Latrell's only thought was to stop Manu, no way would I say it was intentional.
The way the players from both sides kinda held off from interfering between Manu & Mitchell shows how close the 2 are/were. Usually when 2 players get close like that then players start running in from all corners. Its more embarrasing from Mitchell that he shows no remorse or empathy toward the situation. He rather takes a defensive approach as if hes done nothing wrong...
Latrell Mitchell is harboring so much RESENTMENT and HATE, he launched himself with a stiff arm shoulder to hurt and maim Joe Manu with a bone breaking illegal tackle, he never at anytime tried to wrap his arms around Joe Manu, he is a grub, and a blight on the game, we don’t want to watch this type of thuggery…
This is classic Latrell. He wont ever get the grub out of him. Has the potential to be the next GI.. unfortunately it will never happen. I feel so bad for Joey, his season is over and he was having one hell of a season too.
G.I cannot be compared with latrell. G.I was a humble player who kept his cool. Buy latrell is a fiery hot head who likes to start altercations and play recklessly
There is something deeply concerning about Latrell. Time after time after time after time. Getting suspended Breaking protocols Fighting with Origin coach Leaving former club on questionable terms Breaking faces
It is. He cries racism when fans bash him for it. He's also become NRL favorite som for some reason, where he can do no wrong which just makes everyone hate him even more when he's being shoved in people faces
Intentionally 'injure' is the one that you want to really think about ... hurt has a boundary but did Laterall try to put the guy out of the game for a lengthy period. That is very hard to prove if you just see it at the point of the tackle but he runs 30 metres, blindsides him and makes direct contact with the head.
hes gonna hit another deep depression. he will start drinking for days with his cousins, and then he will hit his mrs. just another depressed indigineous
@@nodissdiss275 you were the one bagging out one of the strongest players in the game and disrespecting a whole race yet you're calling someone a keyboard warrior? ffs
Latrell is a straight up grub, and deserves to be rubbed out of the rest of the season. His actions AFTER the contact tell you everything you need to know about the ‘bloke’. Toddler tantrums.
@@clairegrey-sinclair8691 he has prior, several times actually. And to be honest, as fullback, he didn’t have to come from 10 metres out at full speed and aimed so high. He wanted to hurt opponent, he really needs to control his anger and makes better decision, on and off field.
Idk why I’m saying this but, like cmon Ofc a roosters coach and a roosters player are gonna say Latrell did that intensionaly but I have a stand,u see ik Joey is one of the most farest person u can ever see or know but it kinda looked like he ducked down then trell accidentally hit him which caused it to bursed out his cheeks but it’s fine now Joey’s fine they’re still good mates and yea that’s it
Latrell is an out of control ego-maniac. 100%. I believe he wanted to take out Joey Manu because he was the only player on the field who could threaten his status as the big man on ground. I'm not sure he can reel it in though - his career might end early. And that would be such a shame as he can and should be inspiring indigenous kids through NsW & Qld and winning origins for us Blues fans. But yeah he is not bigger than the game and he can't go putting people in hospital just because he wants to win. Hope Joey Manu can come out with some of his natural good looks left...
I played football until I was 40. I reckon I can tell when someone lines up another player with an intention to apply maximum hurt. Watching the high angle shot (not shown here), I see Mitchell line up Manu from 25 meters away where he ran in a straight line at high speed to deliver a shoulder charge on Manu. For me that goes way beyond what I want to see on any foot ball field. Having watched Mitchell for a long time it appears to me the lad has a chip on his shoulder and is often given to childish displays of petulance and anger. He has form and he needs help, sweeping this under the carpet isn't help. There have been life bans handed out for behaviour not much, if any, worse than this incident. When I hear that the injury shouldn't be taken into account I want to vomit...all over Fittler. I wish both Joey and Latrell well.
I would love to know why the NRL think they are so precious and high & mighty that they cannot be criticised, put under the microscope, scrutinised or questioned. Players get criticised and scrutinised, coaches get criticised and scrutinised, clubs get criticised and scrutinised, fans get criticised and scrutinised. So why then cannot the NRL, ref's and the bunker be criticised and scrutinised, without someone being fined for doing so? Precious little babies the lot of them.
I don't think Latrell had intend to take Manu out of the game but Latrell Latrell had every intend to put a big shot on and he hit Manu in the head but the sad thing is everyone is talking about this shot and not how good Parramatta played on the weekend
Imagine the outcome if he ever tried that say 20 - 30 years ago against guys like Mark Carroll, Paul Harragon, Tonie Carroll, Les Davidson, Steve Roach, Paul Sironen... To name but a few??? They would’ve got up, smiled at him, said “is that the best you’ve got?” & then sent him to the nearest hospital when he next took a hit up. That was a sickening hit & he deserved a lot longer than what he got.
Correct me if I´m wrong: earlier in the game, wasn´t there a clip of Latrelle narrowly avoiding a pass meant for him running at speed towards the line (during attack)?, yet he had the reflexes to avoid the pass and let it go to the outside player. It was beautiful to watch. Yet later on in the same game, he can line up an opponent from yards away, and accurately smash his shoulder into his opponents jaw during defence. Looks like intent. Mike Tyson had bad intentions. Latrelle Mitchelle has bad intentions. These athletes are what sell tickets and generate interest regardless of the consequences. It´s obvious the NRL couldn´t care less about player welfare and anything else they tell you is just bullshit.
@@jedmars2691 we give f*ck all for Latrell's opinion about how to conduct yourself on a footy field like an adult, not a petulant war-monger. He needs a big big growin' up. Great player, undoubtedly, but he might just be cutting any greatness short..

Absolute Latrell led in with his shoulder to deliberately hurt Joey. Latrell is one of the dirtiest players in the league, you just need to watch his past games it’s there for all to see. And Wendal Sailor did the same thing, charged with his head into Richie Barnett’s face which put Richie out of the game for a while. So Wendal should keep his coked up nostrils to himself.
He went in hard as he should have, it went a bit wrong and everyone knows he didn't mean to smash his face. I personally like how he stuck it up them, he didn't mean it and it's a tough game where things go wrong sometimes, no need to cry about it. I'm a dragons fan but I respect latrells winning mentality.

made me feel sick, i love manu so much
Yep Yep You gotta have emotion and passion to be a true fan of any sport . Acting like a grub gets you no respect in a world of sport
When Corey Harawera Naera hit Jerome Hughs head high, he felt bad at impact, and when he was getting sent off he still went over to make sure he was algoods. Accidental or not, atleast check up on Joey after he KNEW his shoulder hit is head. Carried on when Joey went up to him.
I agree. The fact that he carried on as if none happened is the problem.
I agree it's not good sportsmanship
The guy contacted him privately and didn’t publicise it. With comments like this I don’t blame Mitchell for wanting to deal with this publically

Thats a dirty play thats not a normal reaction lifing your elbow like that swinging around like that only 1 thing could of gone wrong then but because there was no permanent injury its brushed under the rug had this not of happened we wouldn't of seen that clip again

It’s a farce that Mitchell didn’t get sent off when minuscule hits have been heavily penalised. The NRL is a joke.
It’s that bad it actually funny
Nrl is weaker than piss. I agree that latrell should have been sent off. Grade 2 careless is all it was though. Definitely not grade 2-3 reckless.
You get sent off for accidental contact, but you get to play on for reckless or intentional facial fractures so long as you're the NSW press packs' latest poster boy for the game.
100% Roger Green, poster boy for how you shouldn't play the game
The trouble with Mitchel he too full of himself.There was no need for him to go in for the tackle Manu was covered it was just vicous hit with no remorse and the League should do something about it.I don't think Mitchel would like the treatment he Manu Its time for him to really stock of himself.he has cost the Bunnies a chance of finals Idiot
If you watch this in slow mo from all different camera angles; you could tell it was intentional. Latrell knew what he was doing... he isn't stupid for not knowing either.
One thing I know for sure. Latrell did not make any public apology. In contrast, Manu's family asked the public to back off Latrell. No remorse even after he'd seen what he did. In contrast to Raider's Corey Harawira-Naera who immediately apologies to other Storm's players then Hughes himself. No respect, we don't need those players in NRL, a lot more players will be hurt.
Latrell has no control at all
first up, he doesn't know how to. he'll probably ask everyone to say sorry to him for trolling him, and he'll just play victim.

He didn't just not apologize he threw the ball down at roosters players after scoring, the NRL holds people like Latrell up as heroes to indigenous communities then wonders why the murder and violent crime rates are so high for them. Just like how he avoided charges for illegal guns and taking camping trip during lockdown. Whilst Paul Vaughn loses his contract for having teammates he trained with earlier in the day over for a BBQ.
Im not even a roosters fan, but 10 minutes in the bin? Cmon fracturing someone’s cheekbone is surely a straight send off.

Worst thing about this is I’ve stuck up for Mitchell when people call him a grub and a dirty player but now when he does this and to an old team mate he played along side is meant to be a mate he can get fucked now for all I care I can’t wait to see the next game when the roosters play the rabbits he is going to have the biggest target on his head!
I agree, Latrell is a joke, no need for it, Manu is one of the most humble players in the game. + ex team mate !! I hope he gets a taste of his own medicine
Nah he'll pass the ball off before can get hit just like that CAT Cameron Smith did his whole career.
Mitchell just plays hard every1 knows this isn't a sport for the softy and sooner or later you will get injured some way only play of Mitchell I didn't like was the nofaluma incident
Exactly. Such a shame. And the way he carried on when got back on the field was sad to see. He’s a brilliant player but the guy needs to be humbled

Just look at the way he entered without arms shows nothing but an attempt to cause harm. This is not the first time he’s done this and if he doesn’t change he’ll continue to repeat the behaviour as seen throughout his gameplay. No doubt he has talent and class, but a player with such bad conduct cannot be allowed to continue being an active picture in the NRL. It’s not about being soft, it’s about not cause life and/or career ending injuries
Best hit of the year

Manus face hadn't come up at that time, it takes a few minutes. And when Latrell was sent to the sin bin and on his way back to the field he was being FULL ON abused by the Roosters bench
Obviously it was blatantly intentional to hurt Joey , and his reaction after shows it too. 💯 Intentional

Latrell had no remorse even though he was in the wrong, whether it was intentional or not. I'd say the same thing for any player who suffered a blow like that without the opposing player suffering from any backlash? It's bias and unfair. How was he not sent off, I'm very curious? Joey has every right to be angry, It's just a shame. I respected Mitchell Laterall, a ferocious player, but he was out of pocket there. At least shake the man's hand and own up, if it wasn't intentional? Bloody hell. You know what else does my head in, insensitive people like Mark Nicholls who laughs it off 1:10 "Settle down" after seeing what his mate did to Joey, disgusting behaviour.

@@brettannesley5741 mate, when you have players like Radley, Hetherington, Mitchell and the likes you know their game style is going to get them scrutinised more than any other players. The fact of the matter is that the linesman, referee and Perenara screwed up big time. You ask any of their team mates if they want to see Radley, Mitchell and Hetherington to change their style of okay. Along with their coaches I’m sure you will find that they woul want them to change.
When are people going to go after the system that is causing a lot of the problems. The whole system from the match review, judiciary the bunker and the systems all need to be blown up and reconfigured asap. You mentioned Munster who also is pushing the boundaries, he is the closest thing to a grub on the field.
100% Latrell went in with intent. Compare this with CHN's shoulder to the head hit on Jahrome Hughes the other week. Immediately he knew what he did, and went to help out Hughes with remorse. Latrell? None of that, he got straight up and wanted to fight when the Roosters players gathered around, showing no remorse and being unapologetic. Even when the referee came over he was still defending himself that he hadn't done anything wrong. Grub
Latrell never looked like he was looking for a fight, if anything he looked confused and concerned
How about 13 people from the other team rush you and see if you can keep your cool. Shut up you coward and keep watching from the comfort of your couch
@lucasparsons6933 confused and concerned? What's confusing about leading with your shoulder and making contact to your opponents head? Full intent to hurt him. Nothing but a grub.

The intelligence of James Hooper is on full display here. what a fool.
None of it matters now. Manu out with a fractured check, and Latrell out for 6 weeks. The real question is was it worth it. To say that there was no intent to hurt indicates how little you know or your just a schill. The intention to hit hard so as to not run as hard the next time is and always how you go in for a tackle mostly. Hoops is a dreamer who thinks that players go into a tackle thinking rainbows and unicorns. What mindset does he think doing the biggest hit ups and biggest hits players have when running or making a hit? Has he not watched a single game of Origin? This guy makes a living talking about Rugby League? That's the kind of answer that reminds me of the decision making of the officials that night.
Certainly was not "worth it" for Manu.
Actually still does matter...
@@shannonavery9449 Which part? They both won't be playing. That's pretty much a foregone conclusion. The question they posed was "Did Latrell intentionally try to hurt Joey?" In the context of their question it doesn't matter one bit, neither player will be playing to make a grand final. However you may feel, it's not going to change the fact of what's already happened. I mean why even ask that question. The more concerning question is why did the officials not notice it at the time? Why did it take Manu to approach Mitchell twice? Speculating on something that no one but Mitchell can answer was just a waste of time that changes nothing and distracts from asking about what a terrible job the officials did. You have to wonder if it's them who are intentionally drawing away focus from the officials.
@Two Olive Trees Congregation you have problems dude.
Let's be honest here, that was never an attempt at a "tackle". Latrell flies in high, late and leading with the shoulder and a swinging arm INTO THE FACE of Manu. Saying he "didn't mean it" or "it was a split second decision" doesn't absolve Latrell from responsibility remotely. If I hop onto the highway in my car and start zipping in and out of lanes at 200/km per hour, and then make a split second mistake that wipes out an entire family, then if my only defence is that "I didn't mean to do it and it was just a split second mistake" the cops will rightly say that I never should have put myself and anyone else in the position to begin with.
It's an extreme analogy, but it feels warranted given some of Trell's defenders don't appear to understand the issue here. The fact was Latrell created this mess by creating the danger in the situation to begin with. If he had attempted to lower his body height and wrap his arms around Manu in a LEGAL tackle then we wouldn't be having this discussion, but he didn't do that, and instead opted for a highly dangerous ILLEGAL tackle that put his opponent in hospital. It was a clear cut send off and frankly he should have got 15 weeks rather than 6.
Thank you exactly
I recon Latrell intended to put a big shot on, don't think he intended to injure manu in that way.
Manu fell into it due to the tackle by gagai

Did anyone forget the swinging arm?
It never gets brought up does it, if he missed with the shoulder he was making sure he didn't miss with the straight arm
The arm swung to cover or hide a shoulder charge

Manu's body fell at least half a foot in the second before the impact. Latrell wanted to hit him hard, that's for sure, but he wasn't aiming for his head.
That was a stiff straight arm swinging hard at his head,I wouldn't even call it a tackle.
It was a shoulder to the head.
He was looking straight at Manus head then dropped shoulder 100% intended to shoulder Manu in the head .
I’ve made many comments about this boys attitude for several years. Sometimes he’s been in a good environment, been positive and enjoying his football. And so were we. Other times he can wander around the field like a time bomb. I appreciate an aggressive player. But this boy cannot control this aggression. The world does not owe him any advantage on the field. And if the advantages aren’t in his favour, his attitude changes, he thinks he’s been hard done by, it doesn’t give him the right to let loose the aggression that he feels. That is…..belt someone. If this boy was Les Boyd, Mark Gyer he would have, should have been sent off for a season. Don’t get into the colour of the skin business, it’s not worth it!!!! The boy has a what about me attitude, the world owes me and I’m gonna show ‘em. Even to the point of belting his mate. He’s lost me.
Latrell definitely has an attitude and is very agressive + passionate on the field. What I will say tho is that the shot was not with intent to HURT. It was him protecting his tryline with bodies in motion coming at him. I dont like how he slammed the ball on the ground after his try later on, but this shot was meant to stop Manu.
Spot on mate..
James, you have no idea full stop.
As much as Dan ginnane.
Your spot on again buzz.
It WASNT intentional the shot. It was careless, wouldnt say reckless, but definitely not intentional. One other thing that I can point out about Latrell is I don't agree with him slamming the ball on the ground after he scored that try. Even if he is sorry to Manu about the shot, that might work against him. But back to my point, it was careless the shot, NOT intentional

@@thatgnaralooguy Manu is a freak of nature, one of the best centres in the game. Its not conclusive that he was "tackled", and as a fullback, Latrell's only thought was to stop Manu, no way would I say it was intentional.
The way the players from both sides kinda held off from interfering between Manu & Mitchell shows how close the 2 are/were. Usually when 2 players get close like that then players start running in from all corners. Its more embarrasing from Mitchell that he shows no remorse or empathy toward the situation. He rather takes a defensive approach as if hes done nothing wrong...
Coz it was deliberate he went straight for his face for goodness sakes, it wasnt necessary. Hate assault on the sly of an illegal tackle
Nice to see Mitchell get clobbered in the finals this year against Penrith.
Henry perenRa was daydreaming that exact moment

Leaving former club on questionable terms
Breaking faces
It is. He cries racism when fans bash him for it. He's also become NRL favorite som for some reason, where he can do no wrong which just makes everyone hate him even more when he's being shoved in people faces
This aged very well.
Intentionally 'injure' is the one that you want to really think about ... hurt has a boundary but did Laterall try to put the guy out of the game for a lengthy period. That is very hard to prove if you just see it at the point of the tackle but he runs 30 metres, blindsides him and makes direct contact with the head.
STRAIGHT TRUE .... YOUVE SAID IT. LATRELLE NEEDS TO BE OUT OF A JOB AND LOOSE HIS CONTRACT HIS SIMPL YH NOT RIGHT FOR THIS RUGBY INDUSTRY.
Latrell doesn’t care about how long Manu is off for, he doesn’t care about the consequences he just wanted to hurt him and succeeded, simple as that.
No wonder people rubbish him despite him being a star. He deserves some of the things that are happening to him.
Look where he came from! He didn't even drop his body position to tackle him lower then where his shoulder ended up... 100% 6 weeks ain't long enough

Shocker of a cheap shot.
Latrell is an out of control ego-maniac. 100%. I believe he wanted to take out Joey Manu because he was the only player on the field who could threaten his status as the big man on ground. I'm not sure he can reel it in though - his career might end early. And that would be such a shame as he can and should be inspiring indigenous kids through NsW & Qld and winning origins for us Blues fans. But yeah he is not bigger than the game and he can't go putting people in hospital just because he wants to win. Hope Joey Manu can come out with some of his natural good looks left...
I played football until I was 40. I reckon I can tell when someone lines up another player with an intention to apply maximum hurt. Watching the high angle shot (not shown here), I see Mitchell line up Manu from 25 meters away where he ran in a straight line at high speed to deliver a shoulder charge on Manu. For me that goes way beyond what I want to see on any foot ball field. Having watched Mitchell for a long time it appears to me the lad has a chip on his shoulder and is often given to childish displays of petulance and anger. He has form and he needs help, sweeping this under the carpet isn't help. There have been life bans handed out for behaviour not much, if any, worse than this incident. When I hear that the injury shouldn't be taken into account I want to vomit...all over Fittler. I wish both Joey and Latrell well.
Very obvious it was intentional..thats what grubs do
High tackle is a high tackle,stay away from the head,Manu was falling but,high ,wrecklace
Its Latrells arm directly after the contact that shows me its intentional.
Manu has been sent to the hospital and Latrell only gets 10 minutes. If the refs and the bunker cant do their job then just quit.
I would love to know why the NRL think they are so precious and high & mighty that they cannot be criticised, put under the microscope, scrutinised or questioned. Players get criticised and scrutinised, coaches get criticised and scrutinised, clubs get criticised and scrutinised, fans get criticised and scrutinised. So why then cannot the NRL, ref's and the bunker be criticised and scrutinised, without someone being fined for doing so? Precious little babies the lot of them.
One reason why he wasn't sent off it's Latrell Mitchell one. Two the club he plays for. The bunker stuffed up and the touch judge as well.
Mitchell is an A-grade grub. We saw it all in this match.
True but still good player
I bet latrell feels like a grub right about now you can see mitchells was going high he chose to go high that's was intentional.
It was a deliberate dog shot. Simple as that.
Ironically, Joey Manu has been cited for more head high tackles than Mitchell in the past couples of seasons.
I don't think Latrell had intend to take Manu out of the game but Latrell Latrell had every intend to put a big shot on and he hit Manu in the head but the sad thing is everyone is talking about this shot and not how good Parramatta played on the weekend
I’ve all ways stuck up for latrell but after seeing him do this I’m not going to stick up for him anywhere
Anymore
Imagine the outcome if he ever tried that say 20 - 30 years ago against guys like Mark Carroll, Paul Harragon, Tonie Carroll, Les Davidson, Steve Roach, Paul Sironen... To name but a few??? They would’ve got up, smiled at him, said “is that the best you’ve got?” & then sent him to the nearest hospital when he next took a hit up. That was a sickening hit & he deserved a lot longer than what he got.
Doesn’t deserve a NRL contract
Put him in a room with either...
kikau
Junior paulo
Nelson solomona
Mika sivo
Justin olam
That brat will get his lesson
And Mitchell tried on the same Grub Act against the Warriors, this weekend with a swinging elbow with Shaun Johnson
Correct me if I´m wrong: earlier in the game, wasn´t there a clip of Latrelle narrowly avoiding a pass meant for him running at speed towards the line (during attack)?, yet he had the reflexes to avoid the pass and let it go to the outside player. It was beautiful to watch. Yet later on in the same game, he can line up an opponent from yards away, and accurately smash his shoulder into his opponents jaw during defence. Looks like intent. Mike Tyson had bad intentions. Latrelle Mitchelle has bad intentions. These athletes are what sell tickets and generate interest regardless of the consequences. It´s obvious the NRL couldn´t care less about player welfare and anything else they tell you is just bullshit.
that was INTENTIONAL...just watch the try Latrell scored..he slams the ball down...the guy is a loose cannon
Joey manu is one of my favourite players and Latrell Mitchell is my lease favourite
He doesn't care about your opinions
@@jedmars2691 we give f*ck all for Latrell's opinion about how to conduct yourself on a footy field like an adult, not a petulant war-monger. He needs a big big growin' up.
Great player, undoubtedly, but he might just be cutting any greatness short..
@@billcarney9014 how do you gauge adult, he's working for money there. He will lose no sleep buzz and hooper armchair psychology and character attack opposite to nine coverage (Gus Gould, Joey Johns). Fox working hard with this one, starting with the intro edits.
@@billcarney9014 obviously he got 6weeks and misses finals, maybe jeopardizing Souths chances. That's more than fair from the failing judiciary
Joey manu didn’t deserve it. I’m not being rude but mitchell did the wrong thing but the look on manus face going up to Latrell asking why
Absolute Latrell led in with his shoulder to deliberately hurt Joey.
Latrell is one of the dirtiest players in the league, you just need to watch his past games it’s there for all to see.
And Wendal Sailor did the same thing, charged with his head into Richie Barnett’s face which put Richie out of the game for a while.
So Wendal should keep his coked up nostrils to himself.
Totally agree with ya
Mitchell’s a grub.We all knew that from the start and Joey had the right to act the way he did!
They call Latrel " Balanced" He has a chip on both shoulders
He went in hard as he should have, it went a bit wrong and everyone knows he didn't mean to smash his face.
I personally like how he stuck it up them, he didn't mean it and it's a tough game where things go wrong sometimes, no need to cry about it.
I'm a dragons fan but I respect latrells winning mentality.
A blind man can see that head shot was intentional. Mitchell intended to hurt Manu.
yea right mate, Latrell wanted to end the rest of his season?
@@harveyking5038 you clearly did not read or maybe understand what I wrote. I get that.
10 weeks suspension in a year. And this time last year he was wanting a million dollars a year. Your dreaming cuzzy
