Mitchell Hallahan #38 Hawthorn Hawks Age: 20yr 10mth Games: 0 Born: August 23, 1992 Height: 183cm Weight: 84kg Position: Midfield Drafted: Round 2, Pick #38 2010 National Draft

Draft Bio:

Tough inside player (and former amateur boxer) from the Dandenong Stingrays who boasts a penetrating right foot kick. He wins one-on-one contests and is highly-disciplined. Earned All-Australian selection after the 2010 NAB AFL Under-18 Championships, after an excellent campaign where he averaged 20 disposals at 66 per cent efficiency with an average of five tackles. The Hawks see some similarities with emerging Richmond star Dustin Martin.

3 years on hawks list. Missed 2011 with injury but came back in 2012 and starred late in the year with some BOG games. Cannot crack a game in 2013 hawks outfit given Lewis, Mitchell, Hodge, Sewell & Whitecross all ahead of him.

He should be offered a deal by MFC and a crack in our midfield. He again is starring for the Box Hill Hawks and at 20 would be a good get.

Either PSD #2, or trade as a straight swap for Rohan Bail or Daniel Nicholson.

    What on earth would Clarkson do with Bail or Nicholson. I know he got Cheney but he places a huge emphasis on kicking and aggression. Two traits that Bail and Nicholson completely lack.

    With Mitchell, Hodge and Sewell nearing the end of their careers I can't see Hawthorn just giving away one of their better young mids. They aren't exactly flush with them either. They have Breust and Rioli who will end up going into the midfield mix and Lewis and Shields but at Box Hill there isn't a line up of players.

    If this guy is as good as you think he is we'd have to offer Hawthorn something as well as making the kid an offer he can't resist.

    As Hawthorn got burnt by trading away Kennedy (who was more established but on the other hand Hawthorn had a younger midfield then) why would they risk getting burnt again?

    Why would they swap him for Bail or Nicholson?

    Wouldn't mind getting him across from the hawks where he can't crack a game... only played 6 games with the since being drafted but is 22yrs and a decent sized midfielder. Believe he won the j.j. liston last year and playing well in the vfl grand final today.

    I'm not sure Hallihan has any stand-out AFL attributes but how good has that James Sicily been? He looks a class player.

    And I'm sure there is a Jason Tutt thread on here somewhere but he has looked out of his depth today. He kicked a nice snap but he panics with the footy in hand.

    Agree watching Tutt today I hope we steer clear away from him.

    I tried to look at tutt closely but he didn't do much at all for the quarter and a bit I was watching. Doesn't impress me at all.

    Haven't seen much of sicily before today but does look smooth player.

    Mitch is a good VFL player, we had a couple of those last year in Magner and Couch.

    I wouldn't necessarily back him on his VFL form. What does he bring to the AFL table?

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
