Young gun with Swans connection - Official AFL Website of the Sydney Swans
"ONE YOUNG player who shone at the recent NAB AFL U16 tournament in west Sydney was a young West Australian midfielder with a Sydney Swans link.
Tom Mitchell just happens to be the son of 170-game former Swan Barry Mitchell.
The 16-year-old was a standout for WA and was awarded his state's MVP for the tournament."
Haven't seen this mentioned anywhere on here, so thought I'd chuck it in.
As MVP for the WA side, he sounds pretty promising. Have to admit he well and truly passed under the radar, I guess being based over there has something to do with it.
I wonder whether he would take up the father/son option...?
Anyone know anything more?
