Queensland State of Origin coach Billy Slater has a telling message for Latrell Mitchell, as the Rabbitohs fullback returns from a three-game suspension on Saturday.
Mitchell hasn't played since Souths' loss to the Warriors, in which he was suspended for landing an elbow to the face of Shaun Johnson.
While he's been out, coach Jason Demetriou has been sacked and his side has slumped to the bottom of the NRL ladder.
Souths also have a growing list of players who are sidelined because of injury, including Cam Murray, Dean Hawkins, Isaiah Tass and Jye Gray.
'Just go and play footy - that's what he does best, he enjoys that,' he said on the Billy Slater Podcast earlier in the week.
