    Having said that, I doubt that many would expect ROK to have no real suitors when he was looking to move.One could ask what value AJ would carry at the moment. When he's right he's a gun, but....
    I think AJ has lost no value..After all, his last in season game was in a premiership winning grand final.
    And he's a young man..

      I dare say you have your rose coloured glasses on.

      Look at how Tippet was dissected before we picked him up. Injury prone, concussion prone etc.
      Three knee reco's must surely make you much more of a risk and therefore worth less on the market...
      The difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.

          Every club should be checking out Tom if they're doing their due diligence properly. Doesn't mean he's going anywhere though.

              Mark Allen on SEN just said that he knows for a fact that Mitchell is on more than $500,000!! Surely this can't be true?

                I heard that Carlton (and eveyone else for that matter) is also interested in Jeremy Cameron. Must be a certainty to leave GWS , has missed lots of games and wont be in the first side for the rest of the year so must be keen to leave.

                  If the logic around the Mitchell rumour is to be followed, then absolutely :P

                    I heard that as well. He also suggested that the swans were playing him in reserves so that he would get disgruntled and request a trade thereby releasing pressure on our salary cap.
                    I couldn't resist so I called in and said that I heard a rumour that hawthorn was playing Cyril Rioli in reserves at the moment so that he would get disgruntled etc.
                    I then compared that to the crap that Mark Allen was sprouting and told them that Mitchell wasnt playing in the ones because he is injured.
                    Hopefully a few nuff-nuffs out there got the point.

                      Is there any proof anywhere that Mitchell is being paid $400,000 a season? Just a guestimate from old Robbo I reckon. It has now grown to over $500,000....What a load of @@@@!

                        Well done, though I doubt they would get the point of anything that wasn't surgically inserted.


                        Mitchell's on 500k, the Gatorade girls are on $200k each and Kenny gets $150 big ones to turn up at his regular spot.

                          And they are all paid out of the COLA we've been hoarding for the last 10 years in a Swiss bank account.

                              Mark Allan is a golfer. I take with a grain of salt what he says about footy. An avid Pies fan, he leaves the ground at half time when they are getting done. I don't mind him as broadcaster as long as he is not talking about footy. Knows Jack @@@@@.

                                I remember coming into the 2011 draft on 'trade radio' that they said he was on a lot of money in the final 2 years of his contract because GWS and how highly he was rated by Swans etc.
