They suddenly feel like they have money for some reason

Peach will go back to sydney
cartwright will end up in england

Moving on from Latrell’s offer and resigned to the fact they have lost Arrow maybe.

for a player that goes missing, he scored 19 tries last year - manu has 21 in his career
stop this crap narrative, manu is another that cant fill mitchells boots
Mitchell had a great half of the year then played like a reserve grader for the rest of it; including the GF. Not worth the money.
And he does go missing. Doesn't like helping the forwards and taking hitups like the centres are required to do these days.

can you guess which half of the year he scored more tries, more points, made more line breaks in
the first or the second
the narrative on mitchell is so bad its actually funny
slide rule

Yep.
Feels like there is a bit of a smear campaign.
The guy is that good.
He does everything with ease.
I don't think wanting more (or at least shopping around for more) than the Roosters offer is at all outrageous.

its like people believe the media that he dropped his bundle after origin
he didnt, he got better, but you wont read about it
all you will read is he downed tools and complained
opposite happened, he scored more and did more
easily

No in total. That's what Wests are paying, probably something on top of that payable by Souths to shift him I'd say.

he only has one year remaining at souths

Yep so they'll pay something for next year only.
$333k per year isn't bad for him but I suspect they want him for fullback, where he sucks.
Manu is a good solid centre, Roosters wouldn't keep him if he wasn't up to their standard. He does a job for them at a price they are happy with.
Hard to say how much of a victim he is (regarding try stats above for example) of being a right centre in a team that plays to the left. But presumably Mitchell is also a factor in why they play to the left.
Mitchell has some issues but is definitely an elite player and will have a better game than Manu far more often than the other way around.
I do think Mitchell is a huge gamble to take at a 1mil a year with the promise of a fullback spot, if he can get the opportunity to try for the fullback spot and 800k he should be happy. He's no hope of any consistent fullback at Roosters so if that is what he wants leaving is definitely the right move, otherwise 800k a year to stay with them at centre was a good offer and he should have taken it.
He has the natural skills and athleticism to be a very good fullback, however fullback would also highlight his weaknesses if he can't work through those, definitely at this stage he is an elite centre though.
He's a good winger for that price, and a good cover fullback. You don't want him as your fullback #1 though.

manu is a good centre, but saying you would take him over latrell is just down right laughable

what a centre should be judged on;
Tries: Latrell Mitchell 2nd, Joseph Manu 47th
Line Breaks: Latrell Mitchell 10th, Joseph Manu 49th
Tackle Breaks: Latrell Mitchell 30th, Joseph Manu 33rd
not bad for a lazy player
but if like samshark you want your centres to be battering rams and helps your forwards out, then ricky leutele is better than latrell mitchell in hit ups per game

If you take price out of the equation I take Latrell 11 times out of 10
He will win you far more games than he loses you and far more games than Manu can win you
