Mike sheehan says 06 flag tainted

To be honest who really cares. It's done and dusted. Even if the AFL miraculously came out and declared their flag void wouldn't make one ounce of difference. We didn't win that GF day and that's all that will matter in the end

Agreed, wouldnt suddenly make it watchable etc

Keep your eyes on rymer..could sneak well under the radar and snag a rookie spot

Comes up in enough threads and just watching G healy on fox, he sees a young sam mitchell and has no idea why he is not given a go.

In the past there are supposed injuries? Racks up stats in the game v richmond last year, yeah ok he can be slow but how many guys get endless opportunities

Does someone know what is happening with this kid or do i just overrate him


Also as an aside where is zac jones

 

[RW]

greek buggery? Is this a Tasmanian thing?!

He did have 18 possessions and 6 tackles against GWS and has played every NAB game this year, just be patient.

Zac Jones, I guess we'll find out where he's at when the reserves play a practice match this Saturday.

Im bored the bored needs waking up

Maybe it means nothing and he is in round 1 starting

Just disturbing he was basically 2nd sub yesterday

Fair enough, it isn't the same without bedford

 

[The King!]

To add a bit more to the topic then what are people expectations for mitchell this year

 

[Millky95]

Mitchell will be ****ed around early in the year, play 16 non-finals game and help us be top 4 simply by freeing up Parker/Kennedy.

It's been a long, long off-season

Mitchell's role in the NAB Cup seemed so ill defined. The coaching staff treated him like he was still a fringe player. Considering our clearances over the past 2 years the Swans need to have Mitchell playing every game he can and he needs to be in the middle extracting the ball.

 

[tizzay7]

Dont understand. He racked up a whole lot of ball and done his job with great efficiency on sunday on limited game time. Maybe they want a little something else from him but dont know what it is themselves.

Take a hanger in the dying minutes of a tight game and slot a goal to seal a win is probably what they wanna tell him...

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Most expensive NEAFL player ever?

 

[Swansujelly]

he is made of tissue paper it appears and is probably just being eased in. We will see his role define as we go along, and I have no doubts he will be traded end of season

 

[Superstar swan]

I reckon tom is a bigger part of horse's plans than people think. This kid is immensley talented but has been plagued by injuries...makes sense to not hammer him in nab... will be in the team round 1

 

[Membling]

Stick him in the guts and leave him there

 

[RUNVS]

Exactly. One of the easiest midfield selections in that his position is super obvious.

 

[vonn]

We got him to boost our reserves side you idiots.

I reckon this is spot on, with his injury history they're probably just making sure that he gets a good run at it for the season proper. Bartel started in the vest on the weekend, and nobody's suggesting that he's out of Geelong's best 22

 

[The King!]

How many ressies games did he play last year

 

[mtooler]

Mcglynn, Mcveigh, KJack all missing before Mitchell was aloud a mid rotation on the weekend. My gut feel is that Mitchell is not named to play round 1. If this occurs just like how people power got Roosy in, I think it will be time people power gets Longmire out.

We have no plan B, we have no inkling of beating Hawks and we may have no Mitchell. Hes not the master coach everyone rates him as, we are a one dimensional team that gets belted in clearances.

Wait what? you want Longmire sacked?

12 in the NEAFL, with 6 in the AFL. If you follow the link you can see that it was a very disjointed season due to a series of niggling injuries, and combined with his surgery affected preseason it would have been very difficult to maintain AFL standard fitness levels:
