Mitchell absolutely destroyed Wines today. He is still an elite contested ball winner, one of the very best there has ever been at this and I am still bewildered as to the hate he gets on this forum.This is a silly take.
He’s playing a different role at Collingwood, feeding it to others and he’s not getting the ball as much which is one of the major issues we had with him continually getting the ball in bad spots and just dumping it.
All this talk of getting the ball to much? Maybe some of our players could do with a dose of that "problem". By that token Nash is one of the truely elite midfielders of all time with his whopping average of 12 possessions a game.
They are absolutely loving his work over on the Collingwood board at the moment though. He keeps playing this way and he could legit be the missing piece that wins them a flag.
