Tom Mitchell or Jaeger O'Meara

[The Swans Blog]

These guys are easily the hottest young property going around in the AFL at the moment. Jaeger has had a great first AFL season, slotted in well with the GCS and played pretty good. He racks them up, plays hard and disposes the ball well. Tom Mitchell played his second game tonight against the Crows, was amazing, should pick up 2 brownlow votes. Finished with 31, a goal, 10 tackles & 2nd in DT points.

They'll both be around for a long time, club leaders and potential club champions. I can't pick which one will win the rising star. Jaeger has an 8-9 game advantage over Mitchell, but Mitchell has been excellent in his 2 afl games.

So many s**t threads like this.

The Sydney guy is 10% better.

Neither drafted at their value, both on long term contracts, both playing their first games, both Western Australian.

Jaeger. Mitchell will be an awesome player, but think Jaeger could be the best midfielder in the competition.

Jaegar O'Mitchell. Easily

Jaeger O'Meara, people are saying he's like Judd when he was with the Eagles.

Vlastuin for mine at the moment. Absolute gun and like he was born for AFL footy.

Just like we were 10% better than you last year

Mitchell has played 1.5 games. As excited as I am watching him play, let's wait until he's played a few more before we start trying to make predictions like this.

Not me. Judd was standout in our side far sooner (in my view and even not having regard to GAJ).

Hottest young property going around in the AFL at the moment?

9.8 % to be exact

Mitchell looks pretty good but both games he has played the Swans have dominated.

Interested to see if he can stand up when the team is under pressure/losing like Jaegar does.

Haven't w.a produced some talent recently

Jaeger, sir Tom Mitchell, Harley bennell, David swallow, off the top of my head. Might aswell throw in hogan and jack martin in aswell

 

[Superstar swan]

Hard to say, jaeger will be a superstar attacking mid. Mitchell will be a superstar in and under . Flip of the coin at the moment

 

[PumpyChowdown]

Aaron Mullett.

I don't have time at the moment, maybe if there's anyone that is interested and can be bothered , it would be interesting to see how Mitchell's game today or even first 2 stack up against anyone else's debut or first couple of games ??

 

[doona]

these threads are ridiculous so soon. After the games they have played, o'meara, vlaustin and mitchell will be the top three. still half a season to go for judging. *, mitchell has only played 2 games. way to early to call.

 

[the_slurpee_man]

i hate these prediction kind of threads....

 

[DapperDon]

This will be the new debate that there is no answer for.
All 3 of them will be immense talents and you'd be over the moon with any of them.

Who gives a crap, pointless rankings of players, just watch them play and enjoy

Yep, just be happy if your team has one of them
