Latrell splits with manager Steve Deacon

[Kingbilly]

I think the Souffs indigenous thing is more reputation than action.
The Roosters have an indigenous management plan and an Indigenous academy (the Tarsha Gale test is part of that)

[Half time]

He will be extending his rooster contract soon.

Same with Manu.

hope your mail is right

Latrell or Tedesco, can't have both I reckon.

This is what happens.

We will keep both, Manu to go.

[Salvatori Grubber]

Deacon is a Rooster.

These new people aren't.

Deacon is a Broker. Ie, a douche.

For sure....

Lest we forget, Angus Crichton is highly involved with indigenous community

Easts are not a bunch of red necks

just remind latrel how souths treated his father!

The great Jack Gibson said it best 'We're here to enrich ourselves, financially and in other ways'. Latrell has every right to get what he's worth, and no doubt we'll offer him a good deal, but how good to be part of a club that could dominate for the next decade, the club where he started off as a youngster?

As far as being black goes, and helping the Aboriginal cause, I'd argue he'd do more good staying with us. 97% of Australia isn't Aboriginal and if you want to achieve change for black Australia you've got to win over a lot of that 97%. If Latrell plays as a proud Koori for us, he's really putting who he is into mainstream Australia.

Who told you? King Salvo or The Insider?

Well said.

i silently hope he and Angus creighton get together. A formidable team. Latrell on the inside promoting aboriginal agenda and Angus representing the 97%. A team within a team for a great cause

Pretty sure George Rose was..
Matt lives in Coogee which we all know is original Easts territory

[The Skeez]

Typical chookpen over reaction. Latrell changes manager so that means he’s joining Souths. lol.

I know hey?? bit strange actually.

Hasn't anyone seen Jerry Maguire?
