Imagine he goes tigers and becomes one of the best fullbacks in the game and leads tigers to finals or more, lol
Depending on who is around him I actually see this unfolding more than him flopping.
All this shit was said about Inglis and look how he turned out. Was in and out of games at centre, very similar build. Wasn’t much chop at 5/8 when trialed early.
He will need to work on his fitness and I don’t see him lasting 10 years there due to size. Though I think he will be a beast for 5-6 seasons injury permitted. He’s been leading point scorer for two seasons (sure kicking goals for roosters help, though with more ball in his hand and not tedesco or keary or cronk does he score more)?
All the bad shit spread is a media beat up. What’s he done? Actual told the media the truth? That he’s wanting to be paid and has 10 years in the game? Wow what a shock. Least he had the balls to call it as it is to the media and not beat around the bush. Any of us would say the same thing.
I’ve been paid sparring with pro boxers and while I love the sport I’ve also turned down small paid fights for different reasons that life has had for me, though $ is always a factor. Same as all the blokes in any fucking sport.
Anyway there is nothing to say latrell can’t follow Inglis career path.
Any player can go off the rails. Not something I’m basing my decision on. Just because he’s indigenous and barba did. Plenty of others haven’t.
Even if he failed at fullback he’s the best centre in the game, goal kicker and a big ass boot.
Anyway time will tell.
