2025 Pre-Season

I reckon he’s filled out some since that measurement (whether that equates to more on the scales I don’t know). There was talk they decided to just get him to work on his body instead of trying to come back last year.

Look at the guy in the Preseason vids this year compared to last preseason (when they filmed his My Souths Story segment).

He’s gone from looking like a basketballer who’s a project piece, to looking like footy player IMO.

He looks to have a more uniform centre of gravity than Tupou too (who has a bit of that gigantic greyhound look about him - Ala Saab). Mellars looks more in proportion despite his height.

Ty looks more like the teenage GI when he first hit the NRL scene. Not comparing him to GI but he does look physically ready to go. I think with Mellars it’s more of a wait and see proposition.

Yeah, I think that’s the thing. The comp between 17 year old GI and 20 year old Munro is kind of apt.

Just remembering that by 20, GI was a man mountain and winning a Clive Churchill Medal at 6 at the Storm, while Ty Ty is about to hopefully line up for his 8th game of first grade. :)

I reckon Ty’s growing is about done (other than some natural man-filling out). Whereas 17 year old GI was about to fill out big time.

Inside Latrell’s strict fitness regime that has rivals on alert as Souths stars respond to Bennett blast​

November 20th, 2024 12:52 pm
The sight of a svelte-looking Latrell Mitchell when South Sydney returned to pre-season training this week should send a warning shot to the rest of the NRL - the Bunnies superstar means business for the 2025 season.

Mitchell normally returns to pre-season training at around the 115kg mark but on Monday weighed back in at 107kg.

So how’s the two-time premiership-winner stripped off the weight? Simple.

Discipline, diet, no booze and no processed foods.

Mitchell has adopted elements of what’s known as an Alkaline diet with a focus on eating fish, lean meats, fresh vegetables and fruits, nuts and legumes.

Gone are any sort of processed foods, sausages, soft drinks and alcohol instead replaced by spelt bread and basmati rice.

The Bunnies fullback has even minimised the amount of sports drinks he consumes and has instead replaced most drinks with simply water.

The results are there for all to see with Mitchell looking lean and focussed when the Bunnies resumed training.


But Mitchell is far from the finished product with the South Sydney high performance staff planning on shredding the game-breaker down to around the 102kg mark prior to Christmas.

Don’t forget Latrell is still in the rehab group recovering from a broken foot and is still three weeks away from being able to run at full throttle.

Once Mitchell is back in full-swing the Bunnies plan to make him even leaner before then bulking him up via a heavy weights regime once pre-season resumes in January.

By the time the Bunnies kick off the season in round one next year against the Dolphins Mitchell should be ripped and ready to launch at around the 108kg mark.

When you consider Mitchell finished last season at the 112kg mark it’s an impressive start to the new off season and shows Latrell clearly wants to let his football do the talking.



With new coach Wayne Bennett set to officially land at the Bunnies pre-season training on November 30 it’s clear the South Sydney playing group wants to impress the supercoach by being in decent condition.

That was the warning Bennett issued to the Bunnies when he gave them a heavy bake back in September.

Mitchell and the rest of the playing group have clearly copped the tip with the Souths superstar getting rid of the bar at his home and replacing it with a gym.

In a major boost for the Bunnies, Mitchell will be available for round one with the NRL ruling his one-match ban for the Dubbo white powder scandal can be served in the Indigenous All Stars fixture.--

Seriously impressive from Trell. That's incredible stuff to be honest. Incredibly exciting for us too!

Mate he’s a professional athlete on over a Million a year

It shouldn’t take Uncle Wayne coming back for him to stop taking the piss

it does show however how poor JDs influence was over sections of the playing group
