STALLED contract negotiations between the Sydney Swans and star midfielder Tom Mitchell might have come as a shock to the footy world, but coach John Longmire isn’t fazed by the situation.

Freo should throw some $$$$ at him. Would be a great fit into the middle of the ground. I would even throw our first pick to Sydney to keep them happy too

Not sure he is a great requirement especially if we get a midfielder with our early pick.

I don't think he is worth anything like our first round pick.

Certainly a very good accumulator of the ball but not quick and perhaps we have this position covered with Fyfe, Neale and Barlow??
 
Good player but not really what we need. Plus would take more than just one first round to get him.

He's a polished up version of matt deboer, certainly not a our first round pick.. My swans mate recon Carlton offering the big $$$. Can win a heap of the ball but not always good with disposal.
 
Tom moved to Perth when he was about 14 when his dad got a job with us, Barry moved back to Melbourne for "family reasons" in 2011 after Tom was drafted.

I'm not sure what would draw him west.
The money $$$$$ lol
 
Prolific ball winner, questions over his disposal quality and also a really good tagger

I'd only chase him if we were to lose Barlow somekhow

Have you been drinking?
 
He'll go to Carlton.

Freo submitted a bid on him in 2011 (we got Tom Sheridan) but Sydney matched with the Father/Son rule.

Eew, no. He is an overrated accumulator and is far from what we need... and certainly not worth a top-10 pick.

Freo to target Mitchell
It is understood that his dad use to play Under 16s lacrosse with Steve Rosich and that Mitchell wants to bring up his kids in the Perth metro because of this strong link.
Negotiations are obviously ongoing, but Mitchell is said to want a contract of $650k a year and Swans are baulking.
It is expected that Freo will be willing to offer this and that Mitchell will be in purple next year.

When will you realise most West Aussies would rather the Eagles and most eastern staters don't give two shits about coming to play in Perth, or us.

He simply will not come.
