Renowned rugby league scribe Paul Kent has unleashed a fiery tirade over the NRL's failure to reprimand South Sydney sensation Latrell Mitchell.
The 26-year-old has managed to dodge any repercussions from the league after his profanity-laced outburst on live radio following the Rabbitohs' defeat to the Broncos, leading to accusations that he's being shielded from punishment.
In a classic case of footy drama, the NRL has clamped down on Triple M, preventing them from conducting post-match interviews due to complaints from the Rabbitohs and Channel 9.
Triple M has swiftly removed the controversial interview from their social media platforms.
During an appearance on Fox League's NRL 360 program, Kent didn't hold back, pointing out the inconsistency in the NRL's disciplinary actions by highlighting Spencer Leniu's hefty eight-week suspension for racially abusing Ezra Mam of the Broncos.
This latest saga has left fans scratching their heads, wondering if Mitchell is indeed being treated with kid gloves.
