Tom Mitchell, recovering from a broken leg and now a Hawk until the end of 2023

[MrPremiership]

Would love to see him destroy a hard tag.

Would love to see him destroy a hard tag.

He did against Freo last year. They tried a couple of people on him and he came out of the game with 42 touches and 2 goals.

Hope Tom is ok. An injury at training this morning possibly bad, I worry for him and hope not bad as suggested, hope the club updates twitter soon with his condition.

[MasterSamurai]

I’m getting the same news!!! Faaark!

 

[Billyc]

This is a genuine disaster if true.

 

[Matt_352]

Hey guys I come in peace seriously hope this isn't true, such a great player.

[MrPremiership]

Green morphine whistle needed, so pain suggests there is a break. Hopefully it’s on the less serious side and he plays a big part of 2019

 

[CWaffles]

Finger crossed for Tom, no one likes seeing any player get injured let alone the reigning brownlow medalist.

 

[RIOLINWITPUNCHS]

What a bad start to the year.

Let's hope this not a sign of things to come.

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

What a bad start to the year.

Let's hope this not a sign of things to come.

Well It can't get any better

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

We're done.

See you in 2020.

Now confirmed by AFL.

Confirmed that it’s suspected.

 

[Truly]

Such terrible news for Tom, and Hawthorn.

Is there such thing as a Brownlow Curse? Previous years winner going down with a serious injury the next year?

 

[kirbatron]

Fingers crossed for Tom its not too serious as it sounds

 

[Mitchell Madness]

This season has started off poorly if true.
One more serious injury and we could be looking at 2009 again

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

We're done.

See you in 2020.

Pick 3, Coniglio...wowee what a year it will be

 

[Rioli2Gunstall]

If the green whistle was needed i wouldnt be holding my breath for 2019

 

[TylerDurden]

Suspected tib/fib now. That’s minimum 12 months. Just wow.

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

"could be"
