Rugby League great Mark Geyer has some advice for Latrell Mitchell as he chases a bumper new contract worth more than $1 million a season - get more involved.
Mitchell has baulked at a two-year extension offer from the Roosters worth $800k a season as NRL rivals the Bulldogs and the Wests Tigers prepare to swoop on the 22-year-old.

Chooks withdraw Latrell offer
It prompted the Roosters on Tuesday to withdraw the offer and tell the star centre he can walk if he signs with another club having alienated himself from the club’s powerbroker.
Speaking on Triple M, Geyer said Mitchell would be enticing for any club but he needed to stamp his mark on more games.
“At the moment he is worth $800,000 a season, on his current form,” Geyer said.
“On his best form, when he plays he’s worth $1.1, $1.2 million. He’s got to find that happy medium.

“He’s got to get himself more involved in games to be that $1.1 or $1 million player.
“Imagine if Jarrod Croker from the Raiders had his ability, he’s always in the game.
“Latrell just seems to have that uncanny knack of not trying to find his way into the game and because he’s such a good player that stands out.”
Mitchell is off contract after next season but is currently able to negotiate with rival teams for 2021, and he has been linked with a massive $1 million per season offer from the Bulldogs.
On Tuesday it emerged the Wests Tigers, armed with a $1.7m war chest were prepared to offer the NSW Blues and Kangaroos representative a three-year deal worth $3.3 million.
