Latrell Mitchell and Valentine Holmes both on Cowboys radar

Latrell Mitchell wants to go to Townsville and the Cowboys are chasing a reluctant Valentine Holmes. But if you had a choice, who would you pick? Cast your vote here.

NEWS that Latrell Mitchell wants to play in Townsville next year has been met with mixed reactions from Cowboys fans with the Origin superstar proving himself a divisive figure.

Further complicating the matter is the fact North Queensland is chasing local gun Valentine Holmes, who seems reluctant to committ after his brief stint with the New York Jets and the potential looming contract offer from the Toronto Wolfpack.

The Cowboys want Holmes, Latrell wants the Cowboys, and it’s highly unlikely both of them can fit in the same squad together.

So who would you pick?

Crash Craddock put the argument out yesterday that North Queensland would benefit from Mitchell’s speed and pizzazz, but only if Holmes is out of the picture.

And while Holmes clearly has the talent, would he be at risk of suffering the Jarryd Hayne effect and losing some of his touch – and possibly the will to play in a league that doesn’t have the same sort of bright lights as the NFL?
