We might have to pay it to make minimum cap paymentsHearing Hawthorn will pay around 45% of Tom Mitchell's contract for 2023, i think his contract is 700-800k.
Probably, but it depends if we get Bowes.We might have to pay it to make minimum cap payments
Tom Mitchell is a multiple All Australian, a Brownlow medallist, an MVP winner, 3 B&F's and has been top 10 in the Brownlow 3 times (top 3 twice). It's like comparing Max Lynch and Jon Ceglar because they're "similar types".
Lachie Neale is also a multiple All Australian, Brownlow medallist, MVP winner, 4 B&F's and has been top 10 in the Brownlow 3 times (top 3 twice). His record (and playing style) is almost identical to Tom Mitchell.
Would you say Lachie Neale has no place in the modern game?
Neale has a good team around him. Mitchell was the reason we made the top 8 in 2018, let alone top 4..Lachie Neale has made Brisbane better. Since he joined they've won 16, 14 (of 17), 15, 15 games.
Hawthorn with Mitchell have won 10, 15, 11 (he didn't play), 5 (of 17), 7, 8 games.
Those arguing for a cheap price for Mitchell will point to the fact that yeah he touches the ball a lot but does that have an impact for his team? You could say the same thing about Neale before he left Freo (good player in a poor side) but that was 4 years ago and the discussion is Mitchell's worth now. I don't think anyone would put Mitchell and Neale on a level pegging in terms of trade value currently.
I'm sure Mitchell can add something to a number of sides, but I don't see him attracting huge interest.

I’ll spew if we don’t take 16 to the draft.I’m not sure what I’ve missed however it’s likely to be a pick slide and rise.
So I can see this in a three way trade.
Hawthorn give: Titch, 24
Hawthorn receive: 16, Future Third
Collingwood give: Pick 16
Collingwood receive: Bobby Hill, Titch
GWS give: Bobby Hill, Future Third
GWS receive: Pick 24
Sounds like a slide to our 2nd pick, around 24.I’ll spew if we don’t take 16 to the draft.
I remember 2009 when oppo posters were saying almost identical stuff about Luke Ball, that he was cooked, yet he was exactly what we needed. Getting the same vibes from the Mitchell talk rn.
Not sure we’ll need to involve our first rounder though, that feels like wishful thinking from media and Hawks supporters.
We don’t have a 2022 second rounder.The trade will most likely involve Collingwood’s 2022 second round pick, with Hawthorn paying half of his salary.
I heard different from the Pies bloke here, apparently it’ll be a future second straight swap but whether it’s yours or perhaps one from the Grundy trade is yet to be seen.I’ll spew if we don’t take 16 to the draft.
Future second suits me.I heard different from the Pies bloke here, apparently it’ll be a future second straight swap but whether it’s yours or perhaps one from the Grundy trade is yet to be seen.
Well yeah, no shit!Future second suits me.
The Magpies would only be interested in Mitchell if Brodie Grundywere to be traded to Melbourne and salary cap space opened up. Hawthorn would be prepared to pay more than $200,000 of Mitchell’s salary and look for a second round pick in any deal.PLAYERCARDSTART4Brodie Grundy

Well yeah, no s**t!
Might be a pick in the late 30s the way Collingwood are tracking. He's a more durable Adams and a great fit, that would be a steal for Collingwood

I’d assume it’s the Dees and we just hope they slide slightly, Pies looking like they’ll be even better with Mitchell so..Future second suits me.
From the article about Gunston going to BrisbaneHearing Hawthorn will pay around 45% of Tom Mitchell's contract for 2023, i think his contract is 700-800k.

Yeah mine's from a mate who sends stuff over, he also broke some news regarding like Amons deal (being 535k not 650k, which David Noble said it was much less than people thought.)From the article about Gunston going to Brisbane
Gunston tells Hawthorn he will go to Lions as free agent
Hawthorn’s triple premiership player Jack Gunston has told the Hawks he will move to the Brisbane Lions as a free agent this off season.www.theage.com.au
Of course they will get them all done, they're all average.
Yes Mitchell will help with total clearance numbers no doubt about that.....so would Matt Crouch. Problem is they offer very little other than that and they are sloooowwww.
As for Richmond getting bent over we shall see. I'd prefer to be bringing in quality over quantity but that's only possible when you can manage a salary cap effectively.
Graham is contracted brother. Nice troll attempt.Costing you Graham, this is what happens when you over pay to bring players in, loyal players walk.
We need to hold our 1st, no player we are connected with is worth trading our 1st for.I’ll spew if we don’t take 16 to the draft.
Sounds like a 2nd round pick will get it done. I'm pretty confident this time next year Pies fans will realise they got themselves a bargain when he is your leading ball winner, leading contested possession winner, leading clearance players, etc, etc.We need to hold our 1st, no player we are connected with is worth trading our 1st for.
So is hopper...Graham is contracted brother. Nice troll attempt.
