Mitchell watch

[mcs]

Someone called SEN today to say Langford will be part of the Mitchell trade.

Tuohy is as loose as Granny's teeth.

No thankyou - Langford is vastly overated on the basis of a little bit of footy. He cracks under pressure imo and not what we need.

You may think Longmire has dealt with you harshly at times but at least you know where you stand. Just wait till you deal with Clarkson's mind games. Ask Lance.

Tom? Tommy... it's not too late.

I do believe we need outside depth though

We are stacked for inside players with mills, Heeney etc that will be more and more midfield

He is exactly what Hawthorn need. We should prevent that if possible.

Thanks for that link, dimelb. Never a truer word written. Horse doesn't bully players like some coaches or pander to them like others. Stern but fair and always straight-forward.

Should let Mitchell leave and draft Shai Bolton

Neil Cordy wrote that there is a difference of only $100k with the offer that the Hawks have made to that of the Swans. If this is the case then surely $100k could be easily found given the increase in player payments and the retirements of Teddy, McGlyn and delisting of Derikkx and others.

If that is true then I am pretty sure we'll find a way to get very close to the offer. Maybe we will only be able to offer a three year deal that then opens up him having a crack at free agency at the end of 2019...

What bearing does the fact that his father no longer works for us have on his decision? Which came first, dad's decision because Tom was going back to Victoria or Tom's decision because dad didn't work for us any longer?

From last night B&F on FB.

Hope it is true!!

Tom Mitchell said he signed on today for three more years. Hope he wasn't joking.

You would think if it was true the club would have announced it

Yeh, that was mentioned in some of the comments.
I guess we wait and see. Like we have been for 4 months.

[AnnieH]

I was thinking about that... if it is true, maybe the club left it to announce today so that the guys who were going could enjoy their last night with their mates.

I told him I'll find him and kill him if it's not true.

From last night B&F on FB Tom signed on yesterday for 3 more years.

Hope it is true!!

Where did you see that? On Tom's facebook page or the Swans page?

From Tom's mouth to my ears.
