Tom Mitchell, recovering from a broken leg and now a Hawk until the end of 2023

[WireHawk]

I would hope that, fitness up to scratch of course, that he
plays a couple of games for us from round 18 on regardless of
whether or not finals are a chance.

A year without an AFL match is too long. It would be good
for Tom take the pressure off having a year out with a few return
games this year.

Jaegar O'Meara had a couple of games at the end of 2017 to relieve
the pressure of returning in a new season after a long layoff.

Could come back and help Box Hill win another flag. Lazy 60 touches in the VFL GF.

I reckon he'll be back and will play at least a month of footy for us this year.

He'll be back before September.

 

[BlueWaterHawk]

He'll be back before September.

So 7 games then

So, what are the implications of us not using our Mid-year draft selection? Does this leave the door open for Tommy to come back this year?

If we were to have made a selection it would have been to replace Mohr on the list.

Would have had no impact for Mitchell at all

 

[Mrzohs]

IF a big if we win the next two games!! You might find tommy joining Mcevoy running a few laps around the oval pushing for selection from the rehab group

 

[Mercy Seat]

For those thinking he would be back this year. Basically the same thing he said earlier in the year: not going to happen.

Have him in my draft league, need him in about 7 weeks time.

Not sure what to make of this but in the below article Clarko says that Tom Mitchell is still a chance to play this year but it's highly unlikely whatever that means

Now for the 'real test': Clarko hopeful Hawks can lift for Cats

Hawthorn coach says his side is ready to gauge its progress against ladder-leaders at the MCG

[Sixpence]

Is he back from Europe yet?

 

[MrPremiership]

Is he back from Europe yet?

Yes

 

[Bugs1977]

Yes

BUPA report should probably be updated to say he's out for the year with third degree burns from sunning it up too much whilst in Mykonos

Imagine being Tom mitchell, get the year off and get to come back to an improved Jaeger, and rapidly improving Worpel, a fully fit wingard, a rapidly improving young key forward in Lewis, with great defenders behind him such as Sicily, Hardwick and Impey, the latter of those whom has really improved and solidified himself in the team while Tom has been out. Other players such as Howe, TOB, cousins, nash, glass picking up the pace too. Scully comes in and plays right from the get-go, he's missed 1? game this season. Veterans such as Burgoyne, Shiels, Mcevoy, Frawley, staying strong. He's watching Birchall making a strong comeback, he's seen Scrimshaw starting the year so well. Tom would have a front row seat watching how great hawthorn is.

He might be wondering how much better they could be if he broke his other leg.

We are lining our ducks up.

Coniglio maneuvering is a GO

Nice.

Yeah, I recall the Tigers last year were restructuring their TPP with a few signings. I thought at the time Lynch had knocked their offer back but in hindsight they must've known he committed to them. Hoping the same

 

[TAITA]

Won't someone think of Wayne Carey!

 

[CHUBBSS]

The thread should be changed to "Tom Mitchell Not if but when" he is coming back, get bloody excited, no matter if we get coniglio or not, having Tom Mitchell makes us a 4 goal better side and gives the rotation some great flexibility.

Shouldn't hear any whinging about Hawthorn yet again signing up a free agent since we're a bottom 4 team.

 

[11sjw]

Great news re Tom. Hope it is partly a restructure due to Cogs. If nothing else than to see Kane Cornes, Wayne Carey and others melt like all buggery.

 

[MrPremiership]

I wonder how the media will spin this into a negative
