Latrell Mitchell’s ban

[##fanboy88]

Laterell Mitchell high tackle has ended Joey Manu season with a fractured cheekbone. What should be his punishment?

 

[Fibro Eagle]

4 to 8 weeks he has priors
Manu is out for the season Mitchell can be too

 

[XV-1]

Nothing to see. 1 week, back for the finals

 

[SeaEagle21]

Since he has a same incident earlier this yr vs tigers and served 4 weeks. Repeat offence with a caved in the opponents face should be longer than that

 

[Kalvin]

He should have to play the last 2 games of the season for the bulldogs?

 

[Dion Johnson]

Didn’t look very good, that’s one of the worst this season, how he was only binned and not sent for that is unbelievable…

If they are serious he should get 6-8 weeks.

 

[Pittwater Legend]

We definitely shouldn’t see Latrell Mitchell play again this season. Playing like a thug has cost him the chance of having a 3rd premiership by the age of 24.

With him, Souths were a strong contender. Without him, they won’t be good enough to topple either Melbourne or Penrith.

 

[Pittwater Legend]

Steve Matai copped a suspension in the region of 6-8 weeks for putting a shoulder to the head Michael Ennis at the end of the 2010 season. That hit was nowhere near as bad as what Latrell laid out tonight and Ennis didn’t come out worse for wear like Manu has

With at least 50% loading for prior minus guilty plea he will get two weeks, back for sudden death game.

I think he should get more, but consistency is overrated

 

[Frogz]

Charity Shield at best

 

[SeaEagle21]

With at least 50% loading for prior minus guilty plea he will get two weeks, back for sudden death game.

I think he should get more, but consistency is overrated

Sadly i'm not holding my breath. With the crackdown this yr of hits to the head that should be enough to rub him out for the remainder of the yr, finals included

 

[bob dylan]

He is an ornament to game just like Cam Smith and Billy Slater.

I cant see him missing more than 2 games.

 

[##fanboy88]

I don’t care if it’s Latrell or not, Accident or not. What happens should be a send off.

 

[EOL now nesting on the GC]

Ryan Matterson got 3 weeks for the hit on Parker. Latrine's was worse. much worse and he only got 10 min in the bin. should be min 3 weeks but deserves 5 or 6 everyday of the week.

will be interesting to see what PVL and the NRL brass do about this. needs real action.

 

[The Right Edge]

Mitchell didn't miss Manu and Robinson didn't miss Perenara either. One goes for 4 weeks at least and one goes for $20k and maybe one gets sacked for missing the whole show in the bunker.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

It was as bad as shots with the shoulder get causing a very serious injury. If he doesn’t get 6 - 8 weeks it is a dead set joke. Good on Robinson for saying what he did. We all saw it and what followed. It was an embarrassment. Immediate send off was the response required. Fancy Mitchell coming back on and scoring more points. It’s a circus alright.

 

[God]

4 - 6 given its a repeat offence and a bad one. Tossing the ball at the guys head after scoring deserved another 10 in the bin,

 

[ALinda]

Immediate send off was the response required. Fancy Mitchell coming back on and scoring more points. It’s a circus alright.

And then petulantly throwing the ball at the head of a Roosters player lying on the ground. What a grub!

 

[Highflier]

With at least 50% loading for prior minus guilty plea he will get two weeks, back for sudden death game.

I think he should get more, but consistency is overrated

If he gets 2 weeks for that after his 1st offence where he got 4 weeks then there is a huge issue for the game
I’m thinking 6-8 weeks ,he is a lose canon grub

 

[court83]

6-8 weeks every day of the week.. already served 4 weeks for a similar incident so can't see how he plays again this year...
The "experts" will all bleat in the media all week long about "rubbing the best players out of the game" , but the only person here to blame is latrell... You wanna play the hard guy, cool, pay the price when you majorly f$&K it up... And tonight, he hit high, he hit late and it was forceful... Thats the trifecta of f$&K ups right there
