Latrell Mitchell, known for his dominance in the NRL, is facing an ultimatum if he wants to earn his spot back on the NSW Blues team.
News.com.au reports that Mitchell must go to great lengths to prove his commitment, with comparisons to burning Arthur Beetson's jersey and drinking the blood of a cane toad.
It seems like Mitchell will need to perform some sort of ritualistic ceremony, involving a pledge of allegiance to the state and a salute to a plane sky-writing "NSW 4 LYF" overhead.
The NSW camp, led by Michael Maguire, is not backing down on their demands, even with the state trailing 1-0 and the bleak prospect of a third consecutive year of defeat.
In typical sporting fashion, Mitchell must now show his dedication and passion for the Blues if he wants to make a comeback.
The pressure is on for the star player to step up and prove he belongs on the team.
