My point is that the club is fucking retarded in both situations. Now all the dead weight is gone you can still build a quality roster around 1 player on $1M per year, provided the coaching is on point and the rest of the squad plays their part. Hell - we overachieved this year with Foz $1.2M on the sidelines for most of the season and still paying like 4 guys to play at other clubs. Imagine fast forwarding to 2021 and guys like Holland, Montoya, Elliot and Foran are off the books. We’ve brought in Latrell and have made astute signings and re-signings whilst developing the juniors. Now imagine a world where we do all of those things without Mitchell.
For some reason every Dogs fan thinks signing Latrell is a death wish when it doesn’t have to be. We’re not signing him to $1M a season plus doing the stupid shit we’ve done in the past - we’re adding a marquee player to a solid foundation.
His a head case,
Mentally weak, cant take criticism
1mil a season is your elite players, in key positions
Not a centre that drifts in and out of games, has a hand full of good games and year
He takes a run, gets tackled, whinges whines and shoves coz he got tackled, stands up plays the ball, makes sure his shirt is pulled down over his guts, walks back to line with his back to opposition after every run
No urgency
That is not a million dollar player
There’s a reason we pulled pins, chooks pulled pins and only 1-2 genuine contenders for him
He be lucky to have 1 rep jersey next year
That is not a million dollar player, million dollar players should walk into rep teams
