LATRELL GIVES BOOTS TO FAN

HE might have failed to sink the boot into Penrith, but Latrell Mitchell was at least classy enough to give his away to a fan struck by a ball.

The grand final rematch between South Sydney and Penrith was all but over when Mitchell defused a grubber by booting it into the crowd, only to accidentally hit an elderly woman.

The Rabbitohs star went to check on her welfare before the contest finished, with the Panthers prevailing 26-12.

The NSW State of Origin and Kangaroos star then returned after the match and gave his boots to the supporter.
