Welcome to Hawthorn - Tom Mitchell - 2018 Brownlow medalist

[The Lemon]

Slipped the word "we" in that interview referring to his old team. Won't hang him this early.... Looks like a kid at his first day at school.

I always refer to things i did at other jobs etc as "we" did this or "we" did that.

Good on him

Can find the footy as well as play a run-with role, above average if not exceptional disposal skills, and kicks goals. A good get.

This will sound stupid, but the kid looks to have stayed in great shape since his end of season......I always look at an athlete under their chin, if they're carrying any pudge it's a sign of being out of peak trim.
Kid has a jaw cut from granite, and I reckon there won't be a harder worker on the track - well maybe JOM .

Excited for the young man and Hawk supporters.

Big challenge for him next year, likely going from being a teams 4th best mid to a teams premier mid.

2 flags since WWII - so impressive!

Said it once I'll say it again, he has not only their 2nd best mid but 2nd best player on GF day. If anything Parker and Hannebery were holding him back.

If there's any truth to the rumour that Sydney were willing to move Tippett on to get O'Meara then I hope it fires him up to really make Sydney regret not trying harder to keep him.

S Mitchell would call up Clarko and the fitness guys the Monday after Grand Final asking when he is allowed to return to his training regime, and would be told that he had to wait a few days just to enjoy the moment.

I hope Tom brings the same spirit and endeavour. Seems like the type who will.

Geez I'm going to miss #5

 

[Samurai Hawk]

ironic in his interview he mentions he plays midfield and looks fwd to learning from our midfield guys the way they go about and the way they lead....someone forgot to tell him our midfield has been traded

look fwd to seeing him lead the midfield

 

[Blaze Storm]

Welcome Tom!!

I'm excited to see him running around in Brown and Gold.

I think we need to consider him a Lewis replacement rather than a Sam replacement, and I think he'll do fine in that role.

 

[Hawker98]

Could he win the Brownlow? I feel like without Lewis or Sam Mitchell getting the votes, this bloke could very much be in contention

Still got Hodge, Burgers and Shiels to learn off

 

[Agent Smith]

Oh yeah... that's right. Tom.

Welcome Tom!

Titch and Jaeger will do 2 things... 1. Rejuvenate our midfield and 2. Light it up!

Oh and of the topic a work colleague that follows Geelong was hanging shit on me for the last 2 weeks "The wheels have fallen off" "Gornthorn" blah blah.
Well haven't the wheels turned, not only did we land the players we wanted, but Geelong have turfed everyone (Kirsten, Caddy, Bartel, Vardy etc) and brought in some Carlton Hack. He is not happy, And I am loving it!

With all the fuss around Hawks and Cochrane, this critical recruit has been put aside a bit. Welcome, will be critical to our future and plays the game like a Hawk already.

Great thing for Tom is that all eyes will be on Jaeger next year, so Tom can just go about being our new midfield cog. Also good to have another midfielder who can kick goals.
