Latrell Mitchell will achieve dual milestones this weekend as he plays his 150th game and enters his prized cows for judging at the Sydney Royal Easter Show.
Before making his NRL debut, Latrell Mitchell had a goal to raise award winning cattle and this weekend the Rabbitohs superstar will achieve dual milestones as he plays his 150th game and enters his prized cows at the Sydney Royal Easter Show.
Mitchell, who owns a farm in Taree, will present prized heifers Talkin’ Dirty and Quartz for judging on Sunday – less than 48 hours after South Sydney meet Canterbury in their annual Good Friday clash at nearby Accor Stadium. “I’ve always had this goal. Me and my mate have talked about it for a long time, and even before I started playing footy,” Mitchell said.
“It’s taken 10 to 15 years, but we’re here. We’ve got two heifers, nine to 14 months old, so hopefully they get junior champs and you see me walking around on Sunday.”Before then, he is aiming to become more involved on the field as Souths seek to bounce back from last weekend’s loss to Melbourne and improve on a 2-3 start to the season.
Mitchell had 21 runs with the ball against the Storm but many of those were kick returns from near his own line.
