Recruitment And Retention Discussion

I don't think I hate a player more in the NRL than Latrell Mitchell, maybe Sam Walker but different reasons.

I don't know how I'd feel with Latrell in the red & blue but I guess I'd have to learn how to love him..
 
1. Kalyn Ponga
2. Dominic Young
3. Latrell Mitchell
4. Toby Winter
5. Jack Bostock
6. Fletcher Sharpe
7. Dylan Brown
8. Jacob Saifiti
9. Harry Grant
10. Trey Mooney
11. Jermaine McEwen
12. Dylan Lucas
13. Francis Manuleleua

14. Phoenix Crossland
15. Cody Hopwood
16. Mat Croker
17. Lachlan Crouch
18. Sandon Smith
19. Greg Marzhew

Well then…
 
Best is easily top 5 centres in the game. He’s the best centre defensively and is as dangerous in attack as nearly all the other centres. To suggest Lucas or Manu can change positions and be as effective as Best is absurd.

Not really
Herbie Farnworth, Stephen Crichton, Lateral Mitchell, Kotoni Staggs, Casey McLean, Robert Toia, Izack Tago, Jack Howarth
Are all better centres than Best in defence.
Best would be in top six in attack.
I know some people are a bit touchy about someone criticising Best. All I am trying to point out is, he will not be a big loss to the Knights if he moves on.
We have players that can take his place.

The Knights could field this side and there’d still be some people in the Sydney media who would say, yeah I still think they could miss the 8

Bruh, I'm not buying this. You've been very normal for ages and the last 24 hours you've started trolling like crazy 😅

The Staggs, Howarth and Tago part got me a beauty

Literally none of those players are better defenders than Best.

Howarth and Tago are barely First Graders.

Herbie is the only one of them I’d say is definitively a better attacking player.

Penrith preferred Alamoti to Tago for large parts of the season, so well off the mark there.

To be fair, Latrell's cousin Lateral does move side-to-side better in defence
 
It's funny how we thought the Bradman we ordered would be an elite gap runner but not great in defence and with no passing game - and the one we got is only OK as a gap runner but elite in defence and with try assists.
