Has Titchell actually specified where he wants to go yet? Are Carlton a chance in your guys opinion?

zero IMO - He wasnt more cash for sure, but he wants to play in a team winning flags as well

Hawks and Eagles the main options I reckon... That said, something tells me he will re-sign at the Swans.

yeah, pretty confident

he was always going to go mate ...

no LE, I ain't no 'Capt Hindsight' ...  :P

see my last from below ... I indicated Titch was definitely going cos Swans weren't going to offer him enough moolah ...  ;)

I am still confused as to what suits us better keeping or losing Mitchell?

If we could get another decent fwd/mid option with speed and a good kick from it then I think we have the midfield 'grunt' to cover Titch leaving.

His loss would most likely only be felt when JPK is done and we need to replace that real bull in the middle.

You're exactly right man, Titch will be a top 5 mid one day but do you keep him while you already have blokes in front of him and lose out in other areas where you could improve or hold onto him knowing what he'll give you in the future and have him play as a mid/fwd/bench role player with low mid minutes until JPK hangs up the boots. Who knows how long away that will be

Gotta also remember Mills & Heeney were both drafted as top 3 mids in their draft year and can't squeeze in yet and you already have Hanners Parker who are very young also. Probably mainstays for another 10 years easy. Think you have to get as much as you can for Titch while his price is still high. The granny Titch played only increased his value imo, he'd fetch top dollar right now.

In most cases when trading a gun you never get "top dollar" :P imo

The thing currently in our favour is that he has a few clubs chasing him.

My dream deal would be to the Hawks and bring in Cyril as part of the deal

that's nice but not gonna happen ... Titch is leaving cos they can't offer him a decent contract, where in the world would we get the money for Cyril??!!!  :o   :-\   :-X   :P    ;)
