Not just Mitchell. I think the swans moved towards a "recruit" the best and has come at the expense of a tried and proven "develop" the best. As a result some of the players ranked 23-28 on the list don't seem up to it.
I think the Sydney swans got ahead of themselves in response to the Giants arrival.
It almost paid the jackpot last year. But a quarter of the cap on two players means trouble. A strategy the cats have avoided ( but look set to abandon Danger-rously)
I genuinely love the idea of bloods. 2012 was the best exhibit. The step towards the tippet and buddy appears to be a step away from that.
