Have you thought about it from this angle. How many young blokes go out on a weekend and cut loose, drink too much, do what Latrell is doing here. I know it's the same old narrative that he's a role model to kids, he's a professional athlete and he needs to be held to different standards, right? That photo appears to be in a private setting away from the public eye. You're kidding yourself that you don't think other players are mucking up behind closed doors.

But I think it's poorer from the person that leaked that photo to media, purposely with the intention to hurt Latrell's career. Don't swallow up media all the time, think for yourself as a person about just another person.

I’m Latrells biggest fan and I can’t believe I’m about to say this but I 100% agree with Gus. They’ve let it go too long he thinks he’s bigger than the game, could win 3 comps under Wayne it’ll only make it worse when Wayne goes.
Critter has grown as a player and a man year after year. He has become a leader and the best centre in the game. Latrell in many ways has had the opposite trajectory.
@@petershaw6346 religion is not just believing the effect of the universe has a cause, which logically is God. Religion is a system of beliefs. Believing 0+0=1 is a religion. Being ignorant of truth is a religion. Believing in yourself is a religion. Everyone has some sort of belief system which is shown by their fruit. Of course, God has given us intelligence and our consciences bear witness that we know what is good and evil, yet man still hates God and doesn’t seek Him, which ultimately proves the Bible true. We love our own, but hate God. No one is a good person for we still reap what we sow. The wages of righteousness is life. The wages of sin is death. People go to jail because they do wrong. But sometimes the court of law is unjust. We know this. But the Holy Creator of the universe is not unjust that humanity has the death sentence for no reason. Indeed the fact that God has delayed justice and we live 80 years is merciful although we still cringe at the fact of our sins in the light of a transcendent God. You see, if you ever wanted to know if a religion is from God, then you test it. We know God is perfect and just. We know God is love. But how can a merciful loving God who also has pure hatred for evil, pardon sin without there being justice? Can we bribe God with good things we have done? We know that a timeless being created time, and God’s justice is eternal. If we have seen a dead body we know there soul has left them, where does the soul go once it leaves the flesh? Be wise brother. The only answer to how God is merciful to us yet still remains just is found in the One was undeniably prophesied by the prophets (Isa. 7:14, 53:5), who was eyewitnessed and historically recorded in fulfillment of those prophecies, and who is still witnessed by all who believe in Him. I write this as witness and no doubt me and this message of good news is hated, for Jesus said so. “In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” 1 John 4:10
If I was the coach I wouldn't want Latrell. Its a team of champions on the bottom of the heap. My bet is Latrell's lack of discipline, and the lack of being disciplined, is the root cause of their underperformance.

Latrell is a joke at this point and pathetic people claim it’s racism to hold him accountable.

Latrell the superstar. What a laugh. All he's ever done is catch a ball near the line and fall over it then go missing for the other 79 minutes ?! Or play 10 to 15 games then go on a holiday for the rest of the season. Then there is the regular absolute grub acts he pulls every second game follwed by a 10 minute bludge off the field.

Football wise the likes of DCE and Nathan Cleary are superstars, but Latrell Mitchell will remain a nobody. I agree with the panel it's been his choice and the club has let him do whatever he likes.
Give the bloke a break. He's played 11 games in 2024 and 16 last year. AND he plays 15 minutes a game too. First thing Wayne should say to him is "pull your finger out or eff off".

In the meantime, they are keep, uplifting, and allowing Latrell to be the face of the indigenous community while he acts like a spoilt brat.

@@BigAl53750I heard there’s a general code of conduct set by the NRL which is part of all contracts, but judging by players behaviour it seems to mean absolutely nothing. Individual caveats made with the clubs generally seem to benefit the players (eg. allowing them to leave their contract early etc)
Thank you Paul Gallen ...Sick of people seeing him as a 'victim' & talking about him like he's a teenager ...He's a married man with kids & closer to 30 than 20. He is all about himself....no amount throwing the ball around with kids (along with his camera crew) can make him a 'good role model' He's been forgiven one too many times for his lack of fitness, ugly behaviour & his huge ego that see's him suspended etc. I would love to know just how many games he has played this year?? As the highest paid player it's a disgrace. When the stupid board couldn't find one more year for Damien Cook, a player who gives his all & steps up when needed & is loved by 'all souths fans' I'm so over LM....
Lateral always has something to say or make an accusation but complete silence now from lateral. Expecting his club to accept some apology and get away with it again. No doubt his treated special. Just a big sook
The souths board are spineless. They are only disciplining Mitchell now because they know Bennett will get him in line. If a coach like Demetriou was still in charge the club would still pander to Mitchell.
Imagine a club needing to hire a specialized coach to have a million dollar play to the standards they signed him for and keep him accountable. Any other player they’d be sacked already Souths getting angry at Latrell Mitchell is like someone not toilet training their dog and then yelling at it for a pissing on the floor. They’ve let him get away with murder since he signed. Every time he’s suspended he just goes away and does his own thing which he’s publicly said that he enjoys more than footy. Souths should have him sweeping the floors after training
He's a black top tier player in the game therefore gets special treatment in the woke times we live in today. Simple as that. 1 game suspension & 20k fine MORE than spells that out if you avg it out to penalties other players have been given for drugs. Just another reason on the already long list of reasons why fans are slowly turning away from the game..
Latrell holds others to higher standards than himself. And tells us he is a role model to "his people". That's no role model! What teaching kids it's ok to do drugs?!!
Because someone snapped a sneaky pic of him off the clock in his own time hes not a role model? Hes aloud to do what ever he wants in his own time, he picked the 1 drug that is in and out of your system in a snap of the fingers, unfortunate that the photo was taken but i wouldnt be scholding him over a photo he had no control of. Yes its frowned apon to do coke but his body his choice he isnt playing rn and as long as it isnt steroids who tf cares 🤣
I would say the nrl has a very big cocaine problem nearly every year somebody gets caught in the nrl doing coke you know there's a problem when the youngest guy in the nrl (walsh) gets caught doing it especially so soon in his career
Stop painting him as a victim and giving him excuses he's been treated as the golden child his entire career and this is inexcusable doesn't matter who it is, the hammer has to come down or he'll get away with it and more and more players will find this behaviour acceptable.
Look at how Munster and Papenhuyzen came back from injury. Physio twice a day. Workouts every day. Pain every day. No boozing or partying. Total mental and physical dedication with no promise of recovery. Instead the NRL wants us to believe Mitchell is a role model.
@@user-zb6xv6tz9i Totally agree and he learnt from it. Coke is totally pervasive and I don’t care other than for the long term effects on young players. The real issue is the hypocrisy and victim mentality of Mitchell, and the fact that his years of special treatment are the antithesis of team sport.
I hate to say it but Gus is 100% Correct at the end of the day Latrell is a grown man who is set in his way it doesn't matter who comes to the club unless Latrell gives 100% to South's this sort of thing is bound to pop up. We all have bad days however as a professional sportsman you need to be accountable for your actions 100% of the time not 80% and i dont have to play as im injured so ill go and party thats very poor discipline. It is what it is.
@@kenjones6441 I'm not saying he shouldn't be accountable for his behaviour, but his club has separate rules for him and don't truly punish him for his actions. A lesser player would have been punted by now
Give the bloke a break. He's played 11 games in 2024 and 16 last year. AND he plays 15 minutes a game too. First thing Wayne should say to him is "pull your finger out or eff off".
I hate to say it but Gus is absolutely right. If Souths management had the guts to stand up to Latrell they would have by now, he should have been sacked a year ago
Gus and Gal are 100% correct on what they said happens with Latrell Mitchell. He's been let get away with his indiscretions for too long. He's been a protected species for too long. South Sydney Rabbitohs are for some reason too scared to come down hard on him. Nothing wrong with tough love. If Souths got on top of this ten years ago when Phil Gould first said about if they keep letting latrell get away with it, then we wouldn't be having these conversations about Latrell Mitchell and his continuous minor indiscretions. He's a talented player don't get me wrong but as Gus and Gal rightly pointed out, he hasn't been disciplined the way he should have been from the start and now it's a ongoing thing unfortunately. Ill disciplined players don't deserve special treatment let alone any player in the NRL regardless of who they are. Latrell Mitchell needs to pull his head in otherwise he'll ruin his career and reputation.
Totally agree with Gus & Gal. The Roosters got rid of him for the same reasons, he will always be a "victim" & when football is over him the downward spiral will gain even more mometum
The reason why Souths and the NRL have not come down hard on him for his outrageous behaviour is because they know that he'll walk away from the game [now that he has a farm and lots of $$$ in the bank] and do a Mundine crying racism.
I agree will Gal, but I also think the NRL is partly to blame, because they tolerate his grubby plays (like his head shot on the BACK of Reece Walsh’s head in Origin II) Joe Suaali gets sent off in Origin I and that was NOT deliberate! Mitchell lined Walsh, then when Walsh has gottne rid of the ball and turned his back, Mitchell STILL leaves his feet and smashes the back of Walsh’s head with his shoulder and what happened to the Ref’s whistle? He musta swallowed it, but Mitchell didn’t get sent off, didn’t get a four week suspension, didn’t even get a criticism in the PRESS! So, it’s not just South Sydney who are allowing this grubby behaviour, it’s the whole damn NRL.
What's this race card you speak of? And how do you use it? Would love to know cos it just seems to be a word people throw out there without any actual evidence to back up this notion that Latrell bring Aboriginal gets him what exactly?? Sounds to me like it's something along the lines of white privilege? 😂😂😂
@@andee0087 Yep exactly. All pointless vernacular, no facts to back up there words. Like someone claiming to be a millionaire with 20 cents to their name 😂😂😂
At some point in time South Sydney needs to have a really good look at Latrell Mitchell, and make a decision if he is really worth the problems he creates.
If Latrell wasn't Aboriginal would clubs tolerate these continual actions? I'm not trying to play the race card but the game seems to be on egg shells whenever it comes to Latrell and it's simply because they don't want to be portrayed as "racist". He's not far off 30 years and has been in the game for a good length of time, it's absolute insanity to sit there and say "I need Wayne to control me". He needs to pull his head in and the game/media need to actually call him out for the BS lile Gus has done for some time now.
This guy would not have lasted a season at melbourne storm, over weight dose the least amount of work he can get away with in games on the track, total liability to the rabbits, unprofessional in every way, a child, get rid of him!
How does he get away with one week? Anyone else in a similar situation has copped huge bans. Any drug testing done? Or is latrell untouchable as always?
People in the comments waffling on about race obviously have ulterior motives. This has nothing to do with race at all it's bad behaviour being called out. Gus & Gal didn't pull any punches here and I support their view.
I really wanna like the guy, but he just comes across as the Logan Paul of NRL - a total knob.. He's been a grub since day 1 on the field, I am truly amazed to see him last this long in the sport. Hope the guy gets his sh!t together hey..
Kick him out of the rugby league this is why Souths have gone so bad this year because he gets away with everything and the rest of the players have had enough and I am not even a souths supporter
Latrell won two comps at the Roosters and played nearly every game while he was there. Gould's comments don't hold water. He's lost his way since joining souffs.

Rugby union mate. AFL have a rampant drug culture too. Gus is right on the money
So a line of Coke gets you a one game suspension? So the NRL is AFL now? If it was anyone else, it would be different.... double standards at its best
He would play the race card
Gus & gal nailed it
Mr Untouchable.
Im sure many use drugs, he just got caught.
People don't wanna believe this, but it's true
yeah but getting caught is both dumb and irresponsible., which is what they are criticising him here for
Um.. isn't *using* the drugs dumb & irresponsible... way B4 the getting caught bit.🙄
I would say the nrl has a very big cocaine problem nearly every year somebody gets caught in the nrl doing coke you know there's a problem when the youngest guy in the nrl (walsh) gets caught doing it especially so soon in his career
@drover_a yes, but that is the reality of many young people. You don't think it's been going on way before mobile phones caught players?
Stop painting him as a victim and giving him excuses he's been treated as the golden child his entire career and this is inexcusable doesn't matter who it is, the hammer has to come down or he'll get away with it and more and more players will find this behaviour acceptable.
Look at how Munster and Papenhuyzen came back from injury. Physio twice a day. Workouts every day. Pain every day. No boozing or partying. Total mental and physical dedication with no promise of recovery. Instead the NRL wants us to believe Mitchell is a role model.
Munster also came back from a white powder incident.
@@user-zb6xv6tz9i Totally agree and he learnt from it. Coke is totally pervasive and I don’t care other than for the long term effects on young players. The real issue is the hypocrisy and victim mentality of Mitchell, and the fact that his years of special treatment are the antithesis of team sport.
@@Wokko1963How do we know what Munster learned. Might still do it. Who knows
Ban him from the NRL. He's always bringing drama to the game.
No Player is bigger than a club or the game. Agree with Gallon.
Imagine if he did get sacked, Jack would be a little lonely.
Go the Raiders.
Gus and Gal are right, LM is not worth it.
Look let’s be real we all know what’s going on.He should be banned for years.If it was another player he would be gone in a flash.
Get rid of him, free up his overpaid salary for some decent players, had enough! Gus n Gal are 💯 percent right
gallen 100 percent spot on
I hate to say it but Gus is 100% Correct at the end of the day Latrell is a grown man who is set in his way it doesn't matter who comes to the club unless Latrell gives 100% to South's this sort of thing is bound to pop up. We all have bad days however as a professional sportsman you need to be accountable for your actions 100% of the time not 80% and i dont have to play as im injured so ill go and party thats very poor discipline. It is what it is.
It is 100% true that his clubs have created the monster that is Latrell's behaviour
Rubbish. He’s accountable for his own actions. He’s not 6.
@@kenjones6441 I'm not saying he shouldn't be accountable for his behaviour, but his club has separate rules for him and don't truly punish him for his actions. A lesser player would have been punted by now
Unfortunately Latrells professionalism could increase at least 20-30% on all levels and he doesn't seem to be aware or even care.
Get Mr Macky to tell him whats what. "Drugs are bad, mmkay? So dont do drugs, mmkayy?"
Crazy that Latrell hasn't had a full season since 2019 with the chooks lol. Since then it's either injuries, discipline, or off-field drama.
Give the bloke a break. He's played 11 games in 2024 and 16 last year. AND he plays 15 minutes a game too. First thing Wayne should say to him is "pull your finger out or eff off".
I agree with you Phil , double standards because he is an elite player is no excuse !
You know how his life is gonna be after his sports career is over
I hate to say it but Gus is absolutely right. If Souths management had the guts to stand up to Latrell they would have by now, he should have been sacked a year ago
Gus and Gal are 100% correct on what they said happens with Latrell Mitchell. He's been let get away with his indiscretions for too long. He's been a protected species for too long. South Sydney Rabbitohs are for some reason too scared to come down hard on him. Nothing wrong with tough love. If Souths got on top of this ten years ago when Phil Gould first said about if they keep letting latrell get away with it, then we wouldn't be having these conversations about Latrell Mitchell and his continuous minor indiscretions. He's a talented player don't get me wrong but as Gus and Gal rightly pointed out, he hasn't been disciplined the way he should have been from the start and now it's a ongoing thing unfortunately. Ill disciplined players don't deserve special treatment let alone any player in the NRL regardless of who they are. Latrell Mitchell needs to pull his head in otherwise he'll ruin his career and reputation.
So Lattrells actions are the clubs fault, not his own. Ffs 😂😂😂
Totally agree with Gus & Gal. The Roosters got rid of him for the same reasons, he will always be a "victim" & when football is over him the downward spiral will gain even more mometum
The reason why Souths and the NRL have not come down hard on him for his outrageous behaviour is because they know that he'll walk away from the game [now that he has a farm and lots of $$$ in the bank] and do a Mundine crying racism.
I agree will Gal, but I also think the NRL is partly to blame, because they tolerate his grubby plays (like his head shot on the BACK of Reece Walsh’s head in Origin II) Joe Suaali gets sent off in Origin I and that was NOT deliberate! Mitchell lined Walsh, then when Walsh has gottne rid of the ball and turned his back, Mitchell STILL leaves his feet and smashes the back of Walsh’s head with his shoulder and what happened to the Ref’s whistle? He musta swallowed it, but Mitchell didn’t get sent off, didn’t get a four week suspension, didn’t even get a criticism in the PRESS!
So, it’s not just South Sydney who are allowing this grubby behaviour, it’s the whole damn NRL.
My new tee shirt reads….”To Hell With Latrell”!
For once I agree with Gal
Why culture is so important regardless of professional sports or a regular workplace, need to have standards that everyone is accountable for
Firstly, stop treating footballers “hero’s and legends” they are footballers and are getting big money to do so.
Why didn't the club sack him no more excuses. Maybe the police should investigate this matter the NRL is the not the law in this country.
Robbie knew.
The cops don’t care about 1 line of coke in a hotel room bro
@@marchy00zero No, they only care about what people are posting on social media.
@@BigAl53750 what are talking about
An absolute role model for his fellow indigenous people 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You know more than i do. Spot on Paul.
South Sydney breaking a cardinal rule of business management by engaging in 'micro management'. Do not 'micro manage' the problem. GET RID OF IT!
Gal, they all act like this.. then they pull the race card..
What's this race card you speak of? And how do you use it? Would love to know cos it just seems to be a word people throw out there without any actual evidence to back up this notion that Latrell bring Aboriginal gets him what exactly?? Sounds to me like it's something along the lines of white privilege? 😂😂😂
@@Camdogthetruthhe has no idea. He’s seen a few people use it on the internet and has followed like a sheep
@@Camdogthetruthdid Munster use the white card to get out of cocaine bust?
@@andee0087 Yep exactly. All pointless vernacular, no facts to back up there words. Like someone claiming to be a millionaire with 20 cents to their name 😂😂😂
I don't see Mitchel pulling the race card here what are you on about?
At some point in time South Sydney needs to have a really good look at Latrell Mitchell, and make a decision if he is really worth the problems he creates.
Now would be that time ya think?!!
The only thing Lattrel is sorry for is getting caught
What's Bennett got to do with this? Go away and let a grown man work on his own problems.
Fining someone $250k is ridiculous. If the offense is that serious just sack him. Blaming anyone other than Latrell for his behavior is a cop out.
Get into them Gal
Yes, Mitchell was helping kids from an 'academy' by snorting lines with them.
Great role model right there.
On point no one has pulled him up
2 year ban. FFS set an example to these entitled footballers. Every job I did for my 40 year working career had an absolute no drug policy.
If Latrell wasn't Aboriginal would clubs tolerate these continual actions? I'm not trying to play the race card but the game seems to be on egg shells whenever it comes to Latrell and it's simply because they don't want to be portrayed as "racist".
He's not far off 30 years and has been in the game for a good length of time, it's absolute insanity to sit there and say "I need Wayne to control me".
He needs to pull his head in and the game/media need to actually call him out for the BS lile Gus has done for some time now.
If Souths put the brakes on Latrell, he’ll play the racist card.
Damned if they do, damned if they don’t.
100% spot on Gus!
Least Gould is calling a spade a spade. Guys a grub, acts like a grub
This guy would not have lasted a season at melbourne storm, over weight dose the least amount of work he can get away with in games on the track, total liability to the rabbits, unprofessional in every way, a child, get rid of him!
Greg Inglis from Temu
Or wish.
It's true, but what is Cobbo?
@@-James-ACobbo isnt playing fullback & the highest paid + best player. Obviously less expectations as a young winger/center
'Let's reward this fine behaviour with an Origin Jersey' - The NRL
I was under the impression drugs, 2 years suspension.
How does he get away with one week? Anyone else in a similar situation has copped huge bans. Any drug testing done? Or is latrell untouchable as always?
A lot of the NRL players do coke, it's just because of Latrell's status and notoriety he got caught.
Status and notoriety? No mate. It’s stupidity. He is an embarrassment to the club
@@davidfife-nm7uy comment of the day , well said.
People in the comments waffling on about race obviously have ulterior motives. This has nothing to do with race at all it's bad behaviour being called out. Gus & Gal didn't pull any punches here and I support their view.
why blur the face out of the others in the room, if its right for him to get exposed, its right for everyone else?
I really wanna like the guy, but he just comes across as the Logan Paul of NRL - a total knob.. He's been a grub since day 1 on the field, I am truly amazed to see him last this long in the sport. Hope the guy gets his sh!t together hey..
Kick him out of the rugby league this is why Souths have gone so bad this year because he gets away with everything and the rest of the players have had enough and I am not even a souths supporter
you guys would be surprised by the amount of players on the pineaplles
Daddy Wayne is on the way? Give us a break. Where's his real parents giving him their wisdom, or is that a sacred no-go area?
Latrell won two comps at the Roosters and played nearly every game while he was there. Gould's comments don't hold water. He's lost his way since joining souffs.
So Gus is right then...
