Rabbitohs player Latrell Mitchell has apologized for his three-match suspension, while teammates acknowledge the need for more accountability. Coach Jason Demetriou is under pressure to save his job as the team struggles at the bottom of the table. Mitchell's ban comes at a crucial time with tough games ahead.
An “apologetic” Latrell Mitchell has addressed his costly three-match suspension with teammates as Rabbitohs players say they have to take more accountability as pressure continues to mount on coach Jason Demetriou who is fighting to save his job.
The coach can only do so much, and his talented playing group haven’t helped him with their performances, with Mitchell’s ban coming at the worst possible time with games against the Sharks, Storm and Panthers coming up.The star fullback was placed on report twice during the horror loss to the Warriors, with Mitchell issued a concerning act notice for a lifting tackle and suspended for three games for a raised elbow which hit Shaun Johnson in the face.
“He was definitely apologetic for what’s happened. There are a lot of things that go on around Latrell. He’s a big name in our game and one of the best in our game, so anything he says, we listen to. The former Raider was more willing to talk about his coach’s future, with Wighton probably not expecting this sort of turmoil when he joined South Sydney.
