Rumors swirl in the NRL community as South Sydney Rabbitohs' fullback Latrell Mitchell contemplates quitting the league amidst relentless booing from fans. Mitchell, a prominent figure in Australian rugby league, has faced consistent jeering from crowds week after week, prompting speculation about the toll it may be taking on his mental wellbeing. While some sports analysts have suggested that the booing could be racially motivated, NRL legend Mal Meninga disagrees. Meninga asserts that the negative reception towards Mitchell is more likely a result of his playing style rather than any discriminatory intent.

He's booed because he's a grub of the game.

Burgess hit the nail on the head, he has no ticker, he does cheap shots to other player and causes them injuries, no wonder he’s getting booed, can’t play the race card everytime

nothing to do with race. All to do with work ethics, atitude and fair play, all of which he lacks terribly. Work harder, stop putting yourself as a victim, and behave on and out of the pitch like a professional athlete and a role model. If he quits now, he won't be missed because people are tired of his antics

The racism card is a pathetically poor cop out by an irresponsible media and a weak character. Mitchell is a grub, opiniated, and arrogant. The media keep calling him a superstar and yet he hardly has produced results for his team in the last few years despite being very highly paid. Watching the replay of his recent grub acts, it's easy to see in his body language and facial expressions that his action are intentional and malicious. He would get booed as he does whether he is black, white, yellow, brown, green, or purple.

@lesbowden2899 Месяц назад

This pre season I thought he looked a lot fitter than usual and I was hoping he would really shine on the field as he is such a natural talent. Then came the grub actions yet again. The reason fans boo him is for those acts. The worst part about those acts is his reaction immediately afterwards. He can't seem to see what he did as wrong. Watch his reaction after the elbow and tip tackle against the Warriors.

@freddylyaki 2 месяца назад

Mate, Nrl doesn’t need bullies. If his on field reactions is triggered by racism and hates from the fans I think he should consider his actions. He cannot be a good model to the indigenous community if his actions are against what his advocating for. The hates from the audience and fans should be responded in a more professional manner and not inappropriate behavior his portraying on the field. He should know that his not the first. Many players have gone before him who represented the IP community in a good manner. But this booing, nah that is too much for a professional footy player. He got no respect for himself and fellow players. I think he feels exaggerating and lost temper which is triggered by his attitude. I suggest he needs a serious psychological counseling before it’s too late. Peace ✌️

@MusMasi Месяц назад

the boos are a reaction to his grub actions on the field not the other way around. Plenty of indigenous players do not get booed. Stop being an entitled grub and the boos will eventually go away.

@leviclarke2429 Месяц назад

People boo him bc of what he does on the field not bc skin colour dogs fans use to boo cam smith for he’s actions as well but he was white it doesn’t matter what skin colour you are at the end of the day if you are a grub on the field you will get booed at

There's a difference between grub and just a pot stirrer for fun..... Latrel purposely does grubby stuff like drop knee on blokes and leads with elbows and shoulder charges whereas someone who gets more hate like luai only messes with people just for a little laugh and messing around.. and you never see luai pull a racist card when he's called out he either owns up for it or just gives people the same energy back but latrel just pulls the racist card.

Some of the footage of Latrell in the out take of that video says it all . If you missed it check it out again. Hitting people in the head is what I saw . Anyways the last couple of weeks he has been stinging for a fight knocking people out so on . Something I haven’t seen is Someone do to Latrell what Latrell does to others smash him around the head and knock him out . And yeah there is group of rascal racist scrubs in the crowd saying stupid stuff. But that just didn’t start with Latrell That is a very unfortunate thing that happens in the society on all levels in both directions on and off the field . For me it’s time for Latrell to be let go he is truly not the footy player we saw when he was playing for state of origin. People seem to be scared of Latrell is the vibe I see also , someone needs to sit the guy down and tell him this is how it is . Then let Latrell say what he wants to do.End of story.

@user-zd8pv8bi5j 2 месяца назад

Great content mate . Was a big fan of Latrell Mitchell but he's done nothing in years poor attitude and lazy I really believe he should be sacked and not the coach . If you replace the coach a real coach is gonna have to say some truths to Latrell and I don't think he has the right attitude to cop fair criticism at this point in his career. Sam Burgess was correct get rid of him. He is a dirty player worst of all the dirty players it's not racist the booing he does himself no favours.

@ericgrunnet2762 Месяц назад

He reaches out to the public before the Final against the Roosters, saying to not boo him. The effect it's having on him and him family, etc. Then, after they win the big match against the team, he played for prior to joining the Rabbitohs. He makes a bee line towards the supporters, and in both a physical and verbal manner, he unloads on them. It was the perfect example to use in a discussion relating to this topic. However, as in so many ways in this country. And I believe most others. There is a double standard. One which is in full effect. And dividing people as a result.

Mitchell's response and from what he does now will show if he is a man or a child. He gets paid a lot of money and enjoys that money, no doubt. He can show now if he has the courage to dig deep and do the work to get back to where he thinks he should be or whether he will go and sulk and let the chip on his shoulder over come him. I hope he does the work and digs deep. That will shut people up and show much more character than walking away will. We don't care if you're black, Latrell. We just want to see you keep giving your best as long as you are paid to do so.
