Lets be honest here Latrell is a fantastic centre, he has some real moments of brilliance but he's no Fullback or 5/8, he doesn't get involved enough and he makes ALOT of defensive errors and he's no Million dollar player.. If Manly are stupid enough to pay overs for Gutherson that's up to them but remember he's a fullback not the best but also not the worst.

Yes he can be a match winner but one blinder every 10 does not equal a million dollar center, we are not the Eels.

I’d hate to lose him but I said it after the Souths game that I noticed Inglis getting very friendly with him, chatting, laughing etc.... maybe I read too much into it but if he wants to go and we don’t release him, his form will drop and he will cost us games.
We should , and I’m sure the people running the club know what he’s worth, offer him a very good contract which should set him and his family up for life and afford him the stability he needs to achieve his potential as a future star.

For starters we are talking about a contract extension for 2021 onwards. So take that into account when we are estimating what he is worth. I know we don’t back end contracts but you would have to think in 2021 he would be worth around the $1million mark. He is only going to get better as time goes on. Which is very scary. People have some vision and realise the players we probably won’t have in 2021. We need to keep him. He can play anywhere in the backline and he is a goalkicker. He is a super star now. Imagine how good he will be in 2 years time.

Kidding about what exactly ? All I am saying about Latrell is that I don't think he's a Million dollar player if you think he is and if you think the club should be paying a Million for a Centre that's your call but for mine I would prefer my Million dollars going to a player that has his hands on the ball alot more than Latrell does. Yes he does some brilliant stuff but he goes missing, his defensive reads could be alot better, he's no 5/8 atm and doersnt have the work ethic to be a Fullback atm, Now when his contract comes up and he has made the improvements in his game that he needs to then he may be that Million dollar player... At the moment the media is blowing alot of hot air about him being this and that but he still has alot of work to do.
Latrell is a match winner.Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe

If you think $600k is reasonable for Latrell, then you're kidding yourself. He's a genuine superstar and a match winner. He will get much more than that on his next deal. To put it into perspective, Manly have apparently offered Gutherson around the $700k mark, you seriously think we can sign Latrell for $100k less than that?Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe
