Roosters star Latrell Mitchell is set to hold talks with his management next week to discuss his future in Sydney, with a $3 million deal in the eyes of the Kangaroos centre.

Mitchell's representatives believe the 22-year-old could be on the end of a $1.2 million-a-year deal from rival clubs if the Roosters are to hesitate on an upgrade for their playmaker.

Mitchell will enter next season as his final year under contract in Sydney, where he will be hoping to seek an upgrade before planning to discuss with coach Trent Robinson an extension until the end of 2023.

Contract talks have been put on delay following the Roosters' NRL Grand Final victory and with Mitchell currently residing with the Australian squad to take on New Zealand in Wollongong.

A new deal for fellow Sydney centre Joey Manu will be a caution for Mitchell, raising concern surrounding Mitchell's future with the Roosters.

Mitchell's manager Wayde Rushton claims the Roosters' starlet is hoping to stay in Bondi, while the club will be looking to retain his services for the long term.

Questions have been raised around Mitchell's worth once salary restrictions increase on sides, with rivals estimating the centre to cost between $800,000 and $1.2 million-a-season.

While Mitchell and Rushton haven't nominated a desired length for a new contract, it is believed a three-year deal would suffice.

A strong upgrade in pay will find its way into Mitchell's contract - but it remains to be known with which club - as those close to Mitchell believe he could receive a higher pay-grade with a rival club.

We are due to have a meeting with the Roosters next week to catch up about Latrell and try and work out where he will be in the next few years. Hopefully we can sort that out before November 1,โ€ Rushton told the Daily Telegraph.

โ€œLatrell was the highest point scorer in the competition this year and when the time was right, he can come through and seal a game so I would say the Roosters would want to keep him, yeah.

โ€œMate, Latrell has been there since he was a kid and itโ€™s a happy environment for him โ€” itโ€™s a good environment for him and his family. There would be no reason for him to want to move.

โ€œTo get something worth with the Roosters would be ideal but we will have to wait until we have that meeting.

โ€œThe Roosters have a great roster but I think a guy like Latrell โ€” who is starting to get into the peak of his football โ€” would be getting paid what heโ€™s worth.โ€

Mitchell will enter into the open market if a deal isn't finalised prior to the November 1st deadline.

โ€œI have heard through the media about (rival) interest in Latrell but thereโ€™s been no official approach to myself about Latrell. Until November 1, Iโ€™d say all clubs are just waiting to see what happens,โ€ Rushton said.

Despite being rumoured to offer Mitchell a 10-year, $10 million deal earlier this season, Canterbury has denied their interest in the Sydney playmaker.

โ€œIn the current market, I donโ€™t know but hopefully the Roosters see what he is worth and are happy to accommodate that with a contract.โ€ Rushton added.

Mitchell will represent Australia on Friday night against the Kiwi's on Friday, knowing a strong performance in the clash will showcase his worth for a big pay rise.

  1. “the 22-year-old could be on the end of a $1.2 million-a-year deal from rival clubs if the Roosters are to hesitate on an upgrade for their playmaker.”

    He isn’t a playmaker. He failed in the halves. He got ditched from fullback.

    Wingers are worth more than centres. A centre is the lowest value position in the starting side.

    I don’t think anyone would pay close to $1.2 m.

    Agent Rushton is trying to inflate market value but is doing the opposite by being greedy.

  2. Of course the cap sombreros will try to negotiate a new deal, whats new?
    What is not mentioned is the deal will have to be pretty good given he is disgruntled there and his passionate Souths supporting family would love a move the Souths where he belongs.
    He and Fifita will be great additions to the bunnies along with Souths new signing of Anthony Mundine’s son who knocked back 4 clubs including the sombreros.

    “Agent Rushton is trying to inflate market value but is doing the opposite by being greedy.”

    Agree with you 100% and around $750- $800k is his true worth which he will be happy to sign with Souths.
    Don’t think he’ll be interested in any back ended contracts the sombreros will throw at him given he has 7+ years left on the field.
    Its in line with the fable the sombreros are putting out there for Cam Murray despite their supporters suggesting they offload Radley, Manu and Tetevano to afford him.
    Typical sombreros stirring up the pot out of obvious panic.

  4. Really? I’ve noticed over the recent years, Easts have a simple philosophy.
    If a player wants overs. WE won’t pay.
    If a player wants to play bidding wars.
    WE don’t play.
    Roger in a tug-of-war?
    We let go of the rope. Do we miss him… Nah.
    Fergo wanted overs with a long contract… cya
    Did we miss him… Nah
    Matto didn’t want the bench, and more.. cya
    Did we miss him… Nuh
    Look at the achievements of most of our former players. (include Newcastle) They’ve achieved very little, except inital contract money, their future is shaky, as their future stocks/worth has diminished.
    If ANY player wants to leave, for whatever reason, Greed, Ambition… I say go..!
    On the other side of the coin, we attract players with potential and mold them into premiership winning rep players. Take for example our youngsters Keary and Angus, both came to us from a dud club with no direction, no club house, no home ground coached by an aging clueless old man.
    Everyone is replaceable, Easts, have the best administration to deal with that.. Easts to Win 3.

  5. 99% chance Latrell is leaving as long as one club is willing to pay the 900k-1.1m (rumoured the Bulldogs). Roosters are going to offer Latrell something between 700-800k. 99% of players aren’t going to leave an extra 1.5m/5 years on the table. I personally think Latrell’s value is 700k. I think this situation is very similar to RTS, If the Roosters did sign Latrell for 900k or more it would jeopardise their team moving forward and they don’t get into bidding wars. Goodbye Latrell.

    “Easts have a simple philosophy.
    If a player wants overs. WE wonโ€™t pay.”

    That’s right. On paper the sombreros pay unders then supplemented with TPA’s and back ended contracts as we see.

    How do you explain 9 origin players which includes 2 who were to play but for injury and 13 in total of the 17 played at international level.
    Toupau is a beauty. Current origin player on $250k? Serious?

    That’s the sombreros way chookdung and cut the gibberish rubbish you vomit on here.

  7. TwentyOne Agree his worth is 750-800k. But Easts dont do back ended contracts. Thats what got Manly and the Dogs into trouble.
    I cannot for the life of me see Easts giving him 3 mill over 3 years. He is not worth that money.

  8. chookdung get it in your head the sombreros didnt win in 2019, it was handed to them on a platter with an extra fullback and a ref who crucified the Raiders with 8 min to go and the sombreros on the rack
    90% of the nrl community refuse to recognize the win as credible and will always be remembered as a sham.
    Make no mistake.

  9. What parallel universe did that happen in twenty one? 90%? Hahahahahahaha! Is that the 9 people on this site that may agree with what you say? 9/10, not too bad!

    Why donโ€™t you complain about the knock on at dummy half, by the raiders, that lead to a try?! Oh thatโ€™s right, it doesnโ€™t suit your warped agenda! Hahahahahahaha

  10. @chookstir keary came from club winning the comp In the last few years and as a CCM? On the brink of rep duties? And if it wasnโ€™t for the Russel Crowe bust up he prolly would still be there. Also a club that has won more comps then any other team?

    Iโ€™m really getting sick of chooks supporters claiming they donโ€™t pay overs and use their own jnrs and turn people into rep players

  11. Toupu played 4 origins in 2014-15 that doesnt make him current.
    Maybe they cop a bit less because they have family living in the area or location or maybe they like the coaching staff or the recent success. There are more than a few reasons why a player chooses a certain club.

  12. The chooks were on the rack for the entire 2nd half not just the last 8 mins.
    The raiders had in that 40 mins 3/1 the penalties 2/0 forced line drop outs 20/1 tackles in the other teams red zone
    13/1 offloads 60% possession 58% field position and played 12 men for 10 mins and still didnt cross the stripe.
    The raiders didnt blame the ref they all said we couldnt close it out we had our chances.

  13. Olive, Souffs have been in Easts shadow for along time now…. Get use to it.
    Souffs were thrown out of the the comp in 99… mismanagement
    I’m sick of Souffs supporters and that boring mantra, ‘for ever’ garbage.
    I’m sick of the junior diatribe you are forever on about… Look at the history books, you cried eyes out many years ago and had the boundaries changed..
    In the modern game, you’ve won ONE flag, not twenty one… Get with the program.. One flag since the introduction of colour TV in Australia.
    Get it Olive.?
    Rusty, the New Zealander, who controls your club is only doing it to build his fan base… and you got sucked in… Keary wanted out…. Look at the clubs figure head… Sam…
    Come back to me with facts, not jealousy fuelled hatred.

  14. chookdung unfortunately all your opinions haven’t been reflected in memberships.
    2 premierships and 3rd last in the nrl member count?
    I would suggest Souths 30000 members does place you in our shadow.
    Deal with it.

  15. Ok Chookstir I will give you the facts.
    In the late 1950โ€™s the Eastern Suburbs as it was known back then, made a decision regarding the junior teams they had playing in their competition. โ€œEvery grade team will now pay for a junior teamโ€
    My father was in a grade team at the Eastern Suburbs and like all the grade players, went to South Sydney. Fact. From that day on Eastern Suburbs had no juniors. Sydney Roosters have no juniors.
    Are those the facts you are referring too?

  16. Membership mean nothing TwitOne when those members stay home and watch the footy.
    30k members for a home crowd average of 15k is pathetic.

    On the Roosters we have 16.5k members and average 17k home crowd average. Itโ€™s the cheering fans that lift a team to win back to back comps. Not 15k stay at home members like Souths bragging about having 29.5k members and being keyboard warriors like yourself staying home typing garbage on the internet. And watching from a TV their Souths choker club go back to back preliminary final losers. Ahahaha

    TwitOne when are you going to explain to everyone why Souths fans are leaving in the thousands??? Thatโ€™s right 6000 members have left the rabbits since 2015. Come on we have been waiting for an answer for a month now. Are you still going to change the subject on your next post??? As per usual,

  17. In the meantime I think Olive needs to get her specs checked out. Do you turn a blind eye to facts Olive like TwitOne. Because a large number of players played in the Roosters lower grades in recent years such as Mitchell, Manu, Radley, Butcher, Collins, Tupounuua, they are on the lower scale of income and making a real big noise now just how good they are. Most of those are on between 150-350k except Mitchell who is on 450k. Yet people like yourself estimate what YOU think that are on and what clubs might pay for them. But they are all young rookies building careers basically just starting out. Mitchell & Manu are due for upgrades after their current contract expires at the end of next season but they are not on big money right now like you fools like to tell each other. You fools have in your mind they are on 800

  18. Olive wake up and smell the roses, the Sydney Roosters Grand Final team was developed mainly from within. If you donโ€™t like facts then please tell me I am wrong that 9 players never played with another NRL team previously and two players JWH 6 NRL games with Manly & Taukeiaho 1 game for the Warriors are not players moulded into premiership winners from those clubs but from Sydney Roosters only.

    The bottom line is Olive, the Roosters turned 11 players into premiership winning self development Roosters. Now run away and hide like the other fools.

  19. Bernie alias penso do you with your silly make believe story really think people want to hear utter rot. In the 1950s Souths were given a large slice of the Roosters juniors by the governing NSWRL because Souths junior districts was getting built out by industries. So the League topped up Souths depleated juniors with Easts. Thats Fact. The Roosters fought hard during the 90s to get them back but as Souths Leader Parker was on the Committee it was not granted.

  20. Magreklamo Mitchell is not a million dollar player. He will extend with the Roosters but for around the 750-800 Mark.

  21. Bernie / Penso…. You’re twice the idiot i thought you were..
    Things in two….
    Easts two premierships back2back
    Sammy’s two AVOs back2back
    You Souffs supporters must be so proud of figure head…..

  22. The Cluckers will do with Mitchell ,exactly as they do with all of their high profile players .
    Say they are paying him up to half of his true value, for the salary cap. Then pay the rest of his contract creatively.
    To say they don’t back end any deals, shows none of you have any idea of how the club you love operates.
    It’s like saying Cronk’s future coaching role at the club, didn’t figure in his two year playing contract . Of course it did. He’ll be paid an amount agreed upon , that was in included in that contract.
    Another form of a back ended contract…
    Of course there were other payments made to him indirectly. Through an education package etc.
    None of it illegal.
    You can try & pretend that they fit a $15-$20 million dollar line up into a $9.3 million cap , if you like?

  23. Clearly it hit a nerve as I share my option on a platform on one person post and all the supporters come out to defend. Seriously donโ€™t have time to read the 1000lines you all write down but Iโ€™m sure itโ€™s the same old
    Stuff. Bla bla bla

    And I donโ€™t go for souths get go and check the facts and reverse search all the BS you want too

  24. 2 – if roosters got kicked out of the comp they wouldnโ€™t have the support to come back in the comp because you supporters only turn up when you winning

    3 – yes the bunnies got kicked out for 3 years so now they have won more comps In less time the. Roosters
    Then the

  25. Olive clearly you are incorrect at everything you wrote. Clearly you are one of those fools if the fridge is white and you say it is green then it is green in your opinion, when everyone knows it is white.
    Thats because fools like yourself mouth off and can never be corrected because you refuse to read the evidence.
    Clearly fools like you state false facts that Souths got booted out of the Nrl for three years when all Rooster and true League fans know they got kicked out for only two years Back2Back in 2000-01. But you would not know that because you think your always right. When clearly you have not stated anything so far that is correct.

  26. EastOfDivide suffers from Olive-itus. We now know TwitOne is a closet panther fan. Clearly TwitOne is EOD. Dribbles on about utter hogswash. Always on about the Back2back salary cap.

    How would you know if Mr Politis pays education fees to footballers family members. Are you his secretary you clown……Sign yourself into a rehab Fool. Then go and get a job.
    EastOfDivide/TwitOne is the same Nutter. Ahahahaha Ahahahaha Ahahahaha

  27. ZT, and I’m not trying to run your site or anything, but how is it that people who have posted on this site with 1 tag, and who make a positive contribution can be filtered so aggressively and “new” tags can bypass your filtering so easily?
    As per my post from yesterday, I’m extremely close to leaving this site, like so many others, and I don’t actually want to because there are a lot of people on here that I like, like having light hearted banter with, respect the opinions of etc, but that’s almost gone.
    If you want me off your site, shut my account, and I honestly wouldn’t know how to set up a new tag from the same IP address, but clearly some others do, and I wouldn’t bother anyway, and will move to a rival site, as most have already done.
    The way I see it there are some really good people still on your site (and if you don’t tell anyone some are Manly supporters) but unfortunately they’d probably make up a small fraction of the overall posts.
    Can you at the very least read some of the posts from long term contributors to this site that have been banned and decide if that was warranted, and apply some common sense to the filtering system before it’s too late?
    Here’s a thought, and just a thought, and I’m the first to admit I know nothing about I.T but I am a director of several companies, so why not post an article asking for feedback, and from anyone that has ever posted on this site. Then filter that, based on how often they contributed, over what timeframe, their positive/negative net contribution etc. As per my comment above this is not my forte, but I’m not an idiot, and I’d help you for free if you asked.

  28. Like I said Iโ€™m not a bunnyโ€™s supporter so I donโ€™t know how long they got kicked out for. But theyโ€™ve still been in 2 less years and won more comps then roosters ๐Ÿ˜‚

    Good chat though

  29. Clearly Olive your knowledge of Rugby League is negative zero.
    If you do not know what your talking about, then perhaps it is not worth saying anything at all.

    All League fans from every club marched on those protest walks against the League hierarchy. Not just Souths 30k members. It was a call to arms by the loyal ARL fans against NRL dictatorship. Souths fans will have all League fans have you believe Souths fans alone marched those marching days of protest. Fools like you believe their myth.

    You must have been ecstatic and celebrated for weeks afterwards when Souths were reinstated thanks in part to your tireless partaking.

  31. We at the Roosters marched so Souths could be reinstated. We needed Souths in the comp to bring our for and against right up there with the best with our consistently huge victories over your mob.

    We marched so Souths could add some more Wooden Spoons to their glory trophy wardrobe. Unfortunately Souths were robbed of the 2002 Spoon when Canterbury were disqualified for salary cap cheating, however Souths won back to back spoons i. 2003-04 to our great marching pleasure.

  32. Shadow, nice ancient history lesson.
    Why don’t you refresh you fellow Souffs fans as to the delights of your mighty clubs accomplishments over the past three years…. Shouldn’t take long….
    Remember, the last 48 years…? You are currently in the shadow of EASTS.
    Ohh, snd ask the kid next door to show you how the Caps Lock works on your keyboard…. Dumbo

    Tell us about the accomplishments over 108 years for a true appreciation of the greatness of a club.
    What is it about the last 3 years of the cap sombreros which has membership diminishing at an alarming rate?

    “We at the Roosters marched so Souths could be reinstated. We needed Souths in the comp to bring our for and against right up there with the best with our consistently huge victories over your mob.”

    I would have thought in true cap sombrero style best get rid of the greatest club in league history to have a chance of surpassing the amazing record of now 21 premierships.
    Can’t achieve this on an even playing field so lets do it as corrupt as possible through cap cheating, draw bias, MRC control and ref bribing as seen this year in many opinions but for some reason all thats done has steered people away from this club of ill repute.

  35. Can anyone offer a credible explanation as to why for a club that has just recorded 2 wins in a row has its membership numbers declining for 3 years in a row?
    Could it be that not having a grass roots juniors system makes it void of any soul?
    Could it be that fans are appalled by the fact that the club is financed by from the proceeds of poker machines despite promoting gambling addiction and leaving families destitute unlike the South Sydney Rabbitohs who’s club and players are financed through the proceeds of its proud and moral 30000 average yearly membership?
    That’s just 2 of several valid explanations but are we in the right frame of thinking?

  36. Im hoping the sombrero wombats on here can leave their 5c pokies in their club for a few minutes and offer some opinion on the above.
    And ladies please keep it sensible, this is a very genuine enquiry that has the entire NRL community curious.

  37. TwitOne why do you refuse to accept facts. The Roosters membership has grown this season from the previous season of 2018. You are so much of an intelligent being that you cannot click onto the link below to confirm your lies. Be brave and learn the truth.

    https://leagueunlimited.com/news/32567-2019-nrl-club-membership-tracker/

  38. Because you refuse to answer let me assist you. In 2015 the year after Souths purchased the 2014 premiership Souths fans all wanted to jump on board after multiple decades of near the bottom of the ladder.

    From 2015 onwards Souths memberships have dwindled away from 35k to this seasons 29.5k, that is 6000 memberships due to the team continually chocking and reaching their peak with two years back to back 2018-19 choked in the game to elevate them into the grand final.

    I can safely predict Souths memberships will continue to free fall now that Bennett has proven he is washed up and seen better days. Burgess and his flashing antics retiring and dud players such as the 35yr old Goodwin being hailed the saviour being jetted in from England

    Why has 6000 members left the choking Rabbits since 2015? The answer is above๐Ÿ”

    I for one after two premierships within three seasons of NRL also representing state and country, that he will be tempted to leave the Premiers anytime soon. The Roosters will give him a significant increase that should see him developing under master coach Robinson into an all time great.

    “@21 โ€“ good to see โ€˜no rep radleyโ€™ called up”

    Yes, Cam Murray will make his overdue debut after the massive outcry from the majority of league fans for being left out against NZ and has requested no Rep Radley (at senior level) be brought in and resume his role as personal butler and luggage carrier.

  47. Many are dumbfounded as to why Radley is even allowed anywhere near this Australian senior team, especially the other 5-6 other nrl players who know should be there ahead of him but then again the sombrero influence.

  48. Mitchell is a premiership winning player when you see how he did that brilliant flick pass sprinting while being tackled that won the grand final and back to back premierships. Keary set it up with Cordner but Latrell had to get that perfect or it was extra time. Tedesco got the easy part just had to catch it and score but Latrell was the one who did the real damage. The rest is history. Add to that highest scorer in the comp and heโ€™s worth a hell of a lot. But roosters rely on teamwork and defense was just as responsible for the win. Mitchell will want to stay but if some club offer him a 10 year contract he would be crazy not to take it because under a different coach and team he wonโ€™t play half as good but still get rich. But he wonโ€™t be happy just with a lot of $$$$. He needs to play where heโ€™s happier which I think is at Easts. I think he will be offered a very good deal and heโ€™s earned top $ from the roosters so I think with cooper gone theyโ€™ll keep him easily.

    “did you get anything right in 2019 ?”

    AngryWombatl the reason I dont get barred like your sombreros mates on here is because I state facts not gibberish.

    Go back and have a look at my post where I stated before R25 the sombreros will find an excuse to have Sam B not play in the semi.
    Was suspended whilst Hargreaves, Tetevano and Cordner all cleared to play.
    Not long after Buettner no longer chairman of the MRC, bit late for Souths but all perfectly timed for the garbage sombreros.

  50. Sam B dismantled the sombreros the only 2 times he played against them this year and they just had to have him missing.
    Take a look at R1 and R25 again and tell me how many times Hargreaves goes near him.
    You can count it in 1 hand.
    Grows another leg when Sam not there.
    Everyone can see that.

  51. TwitzoneOne Victor Radley showed his dominance in the under 23’s Australian side by scoring two tries in 11mins, with the second try in the 11min the Match Winner. Big Mal should rush Rads straight into the Test team after that display. Two time premiership winner Rads is a big game winner and player. Murray the 18th man is a back2back Souths choker who was a massive flop in this years semifinals.
    End of story Twit.

  52. I see you are a South fan Twentyone, be that as it may, Latrell Mitchell detests your club and is an honored content proud Sydney Rooster, who will be staying at the club he attained and refined his specialized skills in attack and defence.

    Latrell will be a life long Rooster and after he signs on for the next three seasons this brilliant athlete will ultimately on the next round of contract negotiations in 2023, become the million dollar player that the Sydney Roosters wil be happy to reward and accommodate with that scale of salary.

    It should be brought to mind this man will become the Roosters highest ever point and try scorer in the clubs history within 5 to 6 seasons.

    South Sydney have nothing on the professionalism of the Sydney Premiers. They the Rabbits, are a backward step that Latrell will not take. Mitchell will become a true leader at the Roosters.

  53. This is what South Sydney one eyed fan thinks of Victor Radley…….

    TwentyOneOctober 27, 2019 at 1:40 pm

    Many are dumbfounded as to why Radley is even allowed anywhere near this Australian senior team, especially the other 5-6 other nrl players who know should be there ahead of him but then again the sombrero influence.

    This is what Mal Meninga thinks of Victor Radley the big game hitter and ball playing lock/utility…….

    “Victor was exceptional for the Junior Kangaroos on Friday and Clint was extremely impressive in the World Nines tournament,” Meninga said.

    “Importantly both players can cover a number of positions.

  54. What’s the point of having b graders like Radley around when Cam Murray has the 13 Jersey locked up for the next 10 years whilst he’s fit and available.?

    The mighty Roosters, the ONLY team to have played EVERY YEAR since 1908. Now back to back PREMIERS….what happened to soufs this year AND last??? They CHOKED hahahaha. Suck the big one!!!!

  57. Twentone just because a parent follows a club does not necessarily define the children are dictated to follow that particular team.

    Latrell has broken the shackles and branched out on his own, staring for the Roosters for the past 7yrs, beginning as a 16yr old.

    Yes after seven years of being a Rooster, Latrell indeed detests that South of Sydney team.

  58. Twentyone when Latrell returns home his Mamma hides all the souths memorabilia he detests that organisation so much. Can not stand the sight of the rival enemy.

    Yes, it is sad for the NRL to lose a genuine superstar like him but the sombreros would be relieved they no longer need the assistance of Buettner and his MRC to make sure he is suspended if they want to beat Souths as we saw this year.

  60. โ€œsuperstarโ€??? burgess is nothing but a nut grabbing, continually head high tackling, hair pulling THUG….the game is better off without him…good riddance!
    Back to back baby!!!!
    Go the mighty Chookies for 3 in a row in 2020.
    shadow skiddies….soufs have won 1 (count it out aloud – ONE) premiership since we have had colour TV in Australia !!! Hahahaha. You must be so proud of your club in the modern era ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚

  61. ๐ŸŽผGlory Glory to the CHOKERS…..May they CHOKE for ever more. ๐ŸŽผ

    …..but I guess thatโ€™s a fore gone conclusion as long as they are coached by the senile old git Bennett ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚

    The choke title actually belongs to the sombreros as witnessed in the GF
    With 8 mins to go they were choking that bad they required an illegal call to rob the Raiders of victory.
    Take another look timtam and face reality.

    “Twentyone when Latrell returns home his Mamma hides all the souths memorabilia he detests that organisation so much. Can not stand the sight of the rival enemy.”

    Do you honestly think his Mamma spends 2 hours taking down all the Souths memorabilia when Latrelle visits and then another 2 hours putting it all back in place?
    What does she do about the red and green walls? Change the colour and then repaint every time?
    Don’t think so.

    “Go the mighty Chookies for 3 in a row in 2020.”

    Don’t know about that timtam, the last 2 cost them around $12m in salaries, can they keep that up with upgrades taking it to around $15m?
    Of course they can, why does everyone call them the cap sombreros?
    Also, they might be running out of refs and MRC buddies as we saw this year?

    So I hear your sookpen has devoted a stand alone thread on Sam and many grateful wont have to endure anymore punishment on their beloved chickens from him.
    Who can forget the sendoff bashing he handed out to SBW and Minestrone in 2014?
    Shows the greatness of the man to get be given that much attention.
