Mitchell is a once a generation player you build a midfield around. Swans, in a short term approach, weren't prepared to do that, believing they could extract premierships with the current line up.
Hawthorn were prepared to build a midfield around mitchell, and a now reaping the benefits.
Nankervis v nainsmith was a call the swans got wrong. Nanker is a premiership ruckman who spends a lot on the ground (game time and lack of injuries)
