Just saw on the AFL site, this young guy had 64 touches in the NEAFL… which of course means little, but he is an absolute gun.
Of course the swans won't be letting him go anywhere, but it would be good to turn the heat on their salary situation. Flash some money at Tom and a few other rising stars…
Throw up a 5 year, 3 million deal for any of Mitchell, Hannebery, Kennedy, Parker… at worst someone else decent gets tipped out for us to snaffle in the PSD.

Would our first rounder & Dunstan get it done?

Re: Tom Mitchell
Def but Sydney aren't going to let him go. The Swan get COLA and I reckon a bit of sponsorship outside the cap through 3rd parties would be my guess.

Re: Tom Mitchell
forget midfielders we need KPPs!!! the best young talent!!!! 2 more seasons of great drafting, coaching --- then 3 years building the team up --- 2019 we should win flag, and be contending for many years.

We need key defenders, half backs, lots of mids, half forwards and key forwards. - We seem to be good for rucks.

If we're getting all that then might as well get a package deal with another ruck toodragit wrote:No good having gun KPP if the ball doesn't get to them.SMS wrote:forget midfielders we need KPPs!!! the best young talent!!!! 2 more seasons of great drafting, coaching --- then 3 years building the team up --- 2019 we should win flag, and be contending for many years.

The old Man hates St.Kilda and the son is at the swans as a real Father and son deal if you get my meaning.
Not Going anywhere IMO.

Agree, but it shouldn't stop us from offering up some coin all the same...SaintWal wrote:The old Man hates St.Kilda and the son is at the swans as a real Father and son deal if you get my meaning.

It's going to get some of these players thinking if the Swans are offering $250,000 PA and another club is offering $550,000. With the COLA winding up they will have to lose some good players if Tippett & Franklin are taking 20% of their cap space.
