the next GI

At the same stage..... that is before they turned 22 years of age..... Inglis had played for Australia 5 times as many as Latrell has, he had played more that twice as many origins, played 3 grand finals, scored more tries in fewer games, you really are making yourself look stupid, I have tried to get you to grow up but looks like you are just a bit too stupid to help.

How about points scored, you missed that? lol You are so easy lol. Latrell will end up a better player than GI.

Wrong again, and please try to grow up and have a conversation without resorting to petty childish jibes.

Someone states their opinion and you call it waffle and then you sook like a cry baby when someone calls you a muppet you muppet lol. Go and have a another cry in the corner. Opinions are like aholes, your boyfriend has two lol.

Latrell is not the next GI - Latrell is Latrell and will make his own way in the RL world. He knows that better than anyone. In the end, what does it matter whether or not he is better than GI??

GI's career has had its highlights and lowlights. A magnificent sight when on song, but could also be bog average for a player of his talent. He was at his best at the Storm and don't think he ever recaptured that form for Souffs. He tended to save his best performances for Origin and Aus, rather than Rusty's rabble. I don't actually think Souffs will miss him all that much.

What grates me is the media and NRL HQ making him out to be a pillar of the community, and a role model for the indigenous - he is far from it.

As for Inglis becoming an immortal - I don't see it happening. Too inconsistent.

I think Latrell has more in his kit bag then GI, with his kicking game an added bonus. GI at the Storm was magic and he certainly had more pace than Latrell. Still Latrell is no slouch when he gets into a break and seems to go into top gear easily. They are virtually the same height and weight, although GI was thinner and faster when he came into grade. I admired GI's ability to cover many positions with total class, but this is where Latrell may shine too with his recent forays into the five eight position.

Latrell for mine is more reminiscent of Arthur Beetson, who came to Sydney as a centre and shifted into the forwards. He has the ability to run over people, great fend, superb ball skills and great hands. Also can be a bit lazy on the conditioning side of things. Latrell also has Beetson's fire and desire to win. Once he channels that a bit better and reduces the penalties against him, he'll have it all. I love watching him play - an unbelievable talent.

Do you think Latrell will end up in the back row?
