Re: Rd 22: Post Game Peace? Carlton vs Hawthorn
Reply #166 –
I rate Mitchell...was a good player at the Swans but is even better at the Hawks where he doesnt get the same amount of help....
44 times is a lot of footy...he went at 84% efficiency with the ball which is very decent considering Murphy who played well for us went at 70%..
He isnt the high impact goalkicking, break the lines star like Dangerfield but he is that reliable ball winner that every team needs in the guts.....
Different player to Murphy IMO...so hard to compare....
Most of Mitchell's disposals were handpasses and that would inflate his disposal efficiency as would the fact that kicks >40m to a 50/50 contest are counted as 'effective'. Some of his kicking gave his team mates no chance, particularly the forwards, and his shot at goal was a shocker.
Not a bad player though!
