Agree. We'd want too much, and clubs wouldn't pay the price. Plus he's contracted.
More than happy to keep him. We've got 3 picks in the top 22 anyway.

He's definitely a first rounder between 10-18. He's a good extractor and accumulator, but needs some a-grade outside players around him utilise his strength. Don't think Hawks currently have this, so his weaknesses are getting exposed.I'd be interested in what other supporters would give up for players like yeo,Parker,prestia, Lyons as examples ?? I'm not saying they're entirely similar players but are at the same part of there careers. I think at least a 1st round for all of them and Mitchell has arguably had the best career to do date.

What about Mitchell and the Hawks pick 22 for Carlton’s first round pick? Would the Blues do that deal?
So what you are really saying is Carlton / St kilda or EssendonFrom my sources - if a club offers up a top 10 pick we'll entertain a trade. Otherwise we'll hold Mitchell to his contract which is heavily front loaded anyway and mostly paid down (950k last 2 seasons, 700k this year, 550k for the last 2 years).
We didn't leak the news, his agent did - which is a typical move when a player has cashed in a front loaded contract so they can get some more $$$ on their leaner later years of the deal.
If clubs don't want to pay what we ask we won't trade, it's that simple.
I don't really want him, he's got good years left in him but we're already one paced.What about Mitchell and the Hawks pick 22 for Carlton’s first round pick? Would the Blues do that deal?
34 touches tonight'No impact' Mitchell easily best on ground again in a surprise win. 32 disposals, 16 contested, 7 tackles and a goal despite a hard tag.
Give it a week and people will again be saying he gets nothing possessions and is never tagged because coaches don't rate him.

what was his DE%
His possessions dont hurt and he is slow , Doesnt really suit the richmond game style and will be 29 years old before he plays a game next yearAround 60%. A few kicks forward out of packs in the second half when tagged brought that down (though that style suits Richmond).

best he stays at the Hawks as no chance Richmond can afford to pay him the $$
heard mentioned its like 900k

Hawks mad to trade him. Keep him to raise the babies3 votes.
Straight back to the 'his possessions don't hurt' trope. He was hard tagged (as he was hurting Sydney badly) and was easily BOG such was his influence.
I don't care if Richmond would take him or not but he would be an upgrade on Cotchin or Prestia who play in your style just fine.
Cotchin to is your captain, and the importance of captain's to team success is right up there.I agree he’s a gun and one of the few Richmond supporters who rate him but he isn’t an upgrade on Cotchin

Is he not playing until round 12 next year? He turned 28 a couple of weeks agoHis possessions dont hurt and he is slow , Doesnt really suit the richmond game style and will be 29 years old before he plays a game next year

But minus that, just role vs role on the ball...
Mitchell is an upgrade and he is 3 and a bit years younger.
I doubt a deal gets done anyway from the gist of where other tigers posters see the list. Sounds more likely that a trade for a young early 20's mid or hit the draft is preferred rather then getting the best available players right now.
What do you mean? Different role you mean or Cotchin is the better player?
