Well.. he played there all his junior career for starters , never played in the centres until 2017 which he killed but left us to return to his NATURAL position. In 14 games played at FB this year he has 11 TA’s , 4 Tries, 18 LBA’s that’s averaging more then 1 a game btw, 107M from 11 carries with 4.1 tackle break average. Right before his injury he was looking pretty good there anyone remember his run out of the ingoal against parra? Before he did his hammy? I dislike the bloke as much as anyone on here but he is a dangerous FB.

To say Latrell is a genuine fullback because he used to play there as a junior is like saying Matterson was a genuine 5/8 because he used to play there too in his early days. Latrell is a gifted athlete that can adapt to many positions, but at senior level he is not fullback because he doesn't have the work rate like Teddy, Slater or Mini. If there was a list of the best fullbacks rated by all that encompasses to be a fullback, Latrell would not be even in the middle of this years list.

As for being a NATURAL fullback, that's a joke, he was moved to centre after 2016 where he played fullback and cost us so many games because he had no clue about positional play, was a turnstyle in defence. We bought Mike Gordon to have an actual fullback in 2017. Mitchell does not have the fitness, work ethic, game nouse, ability to organize a defensive line to make a top flight fullback. Sure he is an athlete, has speed and strength, but will always be a wannabe Greg Inglis. I don't see a long future for him.
Ok we shall see in 2021

Your not allowed to say anything good on here about Latrell because it ruffles a few of their feathers.
You’ll owe me a few schooners if I fly over to watch the Anzac game next year and we’re above Souffs on the table then!

Can I just quietly ask, who’s to say a FB should be making 300M a game? It’s subjective. Play to your strengths and that’s what makes LM a genuine FB.

No one said anything like that. But fullback requires a multitude of skills, more that pure athletic ability, speed and size. Mitchell lacks the work ethic, and brains in my opinion. He could have been one of the great centres, even though he went missing for periods in most games, and was often a defensive weakness, but he will not play for Australia or NSW at fullback.

How anyone can rate Fulton as an all time great coach is beyond me.
The guy coaches us with a great roster and wins nothing.
Goes to Manly and they only win it after Parra and the Dogs get tired of winning it.
Coaches Australia when there is no real opposition apart from when the Kiwis are in the mood.
Goes back to manly 3/4 seasons ago and plays a part in turning them into a basket case.
The guy is a judas turncoat and a hack IMO. Great player, no doubt about that...but a great coach...LMAO
