Captain James Tedesco and Luke Keary have pleaded with Sydney Roosters fans to treat South Sydney superstar Latrell Mitchell with respect during Friday night's NRL rivalry match.
Mitchell returned to Rabbitohs training on Monday for the first time since Thursday night's racial abuse incident at Penrith, after spending the weekend in Taree and ringside at Tim Tszyu's fight in Sydney.
NSW Police are continuing investigations into the incident, which appalled the NRL and Roosters officials, with the alleged offender wearing the club's jersey at the time.
