Mitchell to debut

[aardvark]

They are both going to be very important parts of our midfield in a year or two. Good luck Tom, I hope you have a blinder.

[Swansongster]

Really looking forward to this. All the best to Tom.

Champion Data guy tweeted 42 to 3/4 time and 52 the week before.

CD have resumed the count. 54 disposals 24 minutes into the last quarter.

Count finished...

Tom Mitchell 56 disposals, 20 cont poss, 10 clearances, 10 tackles and wait for it .... 241 #supercoach points. On the back of 52 last week

Good luck to him and hope that Lamb also plays, however I can see that a tall will come in to cover the height...

Can we expect the Swans to receive a "please explain" from the AFL for breaching the embargo on announcing team news before the C7 nightly news?

[Mr Magoo]

I cant wait to see how he goes. 56 disposals is huge at any level and I get the feeling he may be a bit like hanneberry in that whatever level he steps up to he just adjusts and thrives.

Hopefully we have seen the back of his injury problems and good luck to him

Wow, I don't care who the opposition was, I can't remember any previous players for us getting those numbers, even Hanners. If he stays fit he will be a fantastic addition to our midfield.

Tim Schmidt was getting similar numbers prior to his debut.

Still only 2nd best in the official results. Xavier must have had one hell of a game at fullback

It's the Old Xaverians network paying off the record keepers; they'll do anything to further their cause.

[Primmy]

Hang on we are talking NEAFL here. There have been some massive stats in the last couple of weeks.

Forgot about Sam.....hm.. have to move Drey down forward, Marty goes in up back, swap Chops for Tom Mitchell?

And a boom tish to you Stella

I feel a Dan Brown novel coming up here.

[Auntie.Gerald]

tommy is more suited for the SCG then Chops is my guess.........and it is difficult to go with Morton, Chops and Jetta on a small field

I believe clubs are allowed to make certain announcements beforehand - they just can't release the full selected side. From memory we've had certain other "leaks" on a Thursday before - Almost certain we knew about Rampe's debut and a couple others.
