No Oppo Supporters Sam Mitchell traded

[Bradkli]

Huge sacrifice but will create cap space for Omera and T. Mitchell. Will be huge loss but future of the club bigger. Hopefully they can now hold on to Shiels who was looking like player to be traded for Omera.

Now I guess we know why the club shared that article on Trent Croad yesterday. Subliminal messaging.

This trade could be another master stroke.


I'm not that keen on it though.

Huwaaa is this why Sammy says he'll happy to give the number 5 Guernsey to JOM??


My admiration to clarko and sammy just getting bigger and bigger.

 

[StalkingHawk]

I'm stunned. Not sure whether to be gutted, or excited at what we get in....

I'm sad.

Only silver lining to this is that it proves that AFL trade whisperer flog on Twitter doesn't have a ****ing clue. If he's so on the inside, why didn't he know this?

 

[Vantz]

Wow!

 

[pantskyle]

I imagine this deal is done and dusted, you won't get much from us, being realistic that it's a one year playing deal and then coaching.

Probably to help you out we'll trade you our first rounder for your first rounder and Mitchell.

 

[TBellicious]

You wouldnt get much at all for him. He is 34. Trade radio said maybe not even a pick in the 50s

 

[Arrogant Frog]

I'm gutted!! I don't care what we get in return, this is a premiership captain and 5 time BF winner and he is going to finish his career at West Coast. That sucks big time and I'm devastated!

 

[Wesley2]

Jeez big news

But honestly, he deserves to do whatever he wants. He's stood aside with the captaincy for the Hawks and hasn't complained once and played his heart out. He's earned whatever he wants, and could still help us out while getting to a position he wants after footy.

Mckenzie could be part of this deal

This is incredibly sad... to Think Clarko suggested it.... he is still our best midfielder... and can't imagine WC will give us anything in return.... what a load of s....

Well someone was because someone on Perth radio whispered about this one yesterday. So out of nowhere.

Your first rounder for Mitchell as an absolute minimum. The guy just won the best and fairest for ****s sake and today became a brownlow medalist. Also think he has 2-3 maybe 4 years of elite football left.

 

[jameses]

Arguably our second best player in our history, finishing his career at the Eagles. Gutted.

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Can the opposition fans piping in with 'you won't get much for him' kindly **** off and concentrate on your club's lowly prospects instead. Thanks.

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Seriously this is why I hate, hate, HATE trade period!

Devastated if this comes to pass

 

[Luke_Hodgey_15]

We got this

 

[KINGBUDDY]

34 years old, thanks for the memories. We need to win more flags

Was a WA journo - not an anonymous flog who spends the day picking fights on Twitter.

I don't think so, think this is done more for cap space and future job for Mitchell, looks like Clarko is involved. Won't be anything much coming to you.

Come on mate, be realistic.
