Sam Mitchell

[Maggie5]

Our coaching panel has just undergone a major overhaul and with a soft cap in place for the football department also I'd say Mitchell is no chance.

Besides we have a guy named Hocking who went alright himself and one who knows a thing or two about being an on field c***.

Hocking was tough and obvious, Mitchell was a sniper. Don't want.

Mitchell was a star who I have to say I loved watching play. Student of the game. Will make a coach. Good interview with him on Whately yesterday. Like Bucks really driven and especially early career didnt get that everyone else wasnt pushing hard.

Dont think we will get him but would love to have a try

Yeah, like the only player to be deregistered for being charged by police for an onfield incident.
What was his name again?
Sniper for sure.
How’d that work out for us when he went into coaching?

 

[HFF]

We have just brought in Longmuir and Hocking and the chemistry and cohesion within the group looks to be at an all time high.

With speculation that the league is going to cut down the amount of coaches overall, I don't see how and why we would look to bring in Mitchell.

Not that I don't rate him or wouldn't want him but we just revamped the coaches last year and the two new faces have only been here barely 12 months.
Unless Harvey was on the move there really isn't a spot or need to bring in anyone else.

 

[BringouttheGimp]

Anyone watch 360 with Mitchell last night.. please if you haven't.. have a look at how he signed his book and placed it on the table for Slobbo.. arrogant you know what

Wouldnt have him even as a last resort as an assistant. Smug

Think you may need to look up the meaning of sniper.

 

[Pacman Carney]

Please no!

Yeah I get the 4 premierships.. I dislike the bloke though.

agree re. seriously, he's a really ordinary individual.
selfish and all about him.
eagles dirty on him and are playing with him now about wanting him to work from Melbourne office.
most over rated person in footy.

Reminds me of Josh Caddy.. same sort of character.

The only reason I'd give Mitchell a job is if I wanted my players to become show boating arrogant you know what.. we can head down that road.. might work.. but I'd rather we do it with a sense of class.. without being dirty.. and if you're gonna be arrogant leave the show boating alone.

One form of arrogance I love is De Goey's.. thats the right way of going about it on the pitch.

Don't like dirty players mate.. in 17 yrs playing soccer only had 2 red cards.. one was in the middle of summer playing a pre season Hellenic cup.. I call out to the ref.. 'how reffff watch this! And I booted some poor bloke in the guts.. wanted to get red carded and suspended from the tournament so that I could spend my weekends at the beach re.. bronzing and picking up re.. not playing on hard pitches in 35 degree heat agst s**t kickers re..

That's a good enough reason I suppose re.

A player who whacks someone without them knowing it’s coming.
Hard to distinguish between Mitchell and our 2010 Premiership coach
Only difference is only one sniped so hard he was bought up on civil charges.

 

[HeavyPop]

Interesting to read in his book that he was considering leaving Hawthorn at the end of 2011 with Collingwood a possible destination.

Was rumoured at the time.

Think of all the memberships BringouttheGimp would've saved if he had of come
Seems to me he doesn't like him that much

Going back to the hawks, now that they need another assistant

Gawd I'd forgotten all about that - damn that really does take me back...

and our 2010 Premiership coach
Only difference is only one sniped so hard he was bought up on civil charges.

Wasn't he formally charged with assault and tried / convicted in the magistrates court?

I remember it being dodgy as hell at the time but nobody ever got to the bottom of why he was singled out - was there an ex-Geelong player mixed up in it (maybe with the police or government)?

I highly doubt the announcements that Ratten is looking for opportunities elsewhere and Mitchell is coming back to Victoria coming in the same week is a coincidence.

Might go reach for my tin-foil hat now just in case...

If is coincidence, it’s very good timing.

 

[Brad Goodman]

He'll go back to Hawthorn, do an apprenticeship under Clarko and take over in 3-4 years.

 

[Go Woods]

Blake Caracella is the one to get

Actually he’d be a great get for us, if we do lose Harvey.

 

[Saintly Viewed]

Essendon's rise since sacking Neeld as well. Whether coincidental or not.

Neeld bruise free nonsense.

 

[Saintly Viewed]

No idea, almost feel Harvey's senior coaching chances are gone but with the way the Saints are drifting that might be his best chance.

He also might be happy just being a second banana.

 

[Saintly Viewed]

Hocking was tough and obvious, Mitchell was a sniper. Don't want.

Certainly was a sniper

 

[Soaring Magpie]

I believe North have offered a huge contract to him.......



Next minute, staying in the West.

 

[PepperFace]

No. He is a campaigner
