So is the beanie the new red knitted jacket?

Great news - he's got huge potential. Hope comeback from the injury is incident free.

Great news, he is going to be one hell of a player when he figures it all out. Under a coach with a more aggressive plan he could make some pretty quick strides too, reports are he is flying in his recovery.

Keen to see what Mitch can do under a new coach.

Was always going to re-sign no other club was really talking to him due to his recent injury!

Fantastic news. Future Captain in the making.

Is it only a one year deal though???

He has taken his 2nd year player option on the 2 year deal he signed last year.

Tiger Watcher, FA doesnt start until Monday...probably why no other club had spoken to him yet?!

@Tornado..Keep living under that rock and thinking that the feelers aren't out before the FA period!

Is Weigh unlikely to return then? You would have to think Mitch would have to eventually develop into a starter.

I understand that phone calls etc are made prior to the commencement of FA but I think you could be a little presumptious claiming that no one had done so.

To use another rock analogy, those in glass houses shouldnt throw stones.

I think you can assume now that after Mitch signing on, Weigh would be out of here.... at best, he might sign on for a one year extension.

Creek had an option so I doubt it was a matter of preference between the two. No reason why they couldn't co exist, but Creek would be expecting more minutes.

And the fouls write up suggests Weigh is exploring other options.

After some of his comments on the clubs FB page he would have looked a hypocrite if he left. But seriously coming back from an achilles and being someone who relies heavily on jumping/athleticism I doubt there would have been bigger/similar offers out there. Hopefully he returns near 100% and finally reaches the potential he showed in his early games as a Sixer and the last couple before his injury.

Great to hear! Im not sure why people are so certain that he would start over Weigh though (if they both returned). Weigh is certainly a whipping boy, but its only because of expectations and the amount of minutes he had to play (we had no other wings), he's still a very capable starter. Especially with Creek returning from injury.

Hopefully this also sets a standard for Gibson to follow.

Great news for Mitch ,unfortunate injury last season hope he will be better on his return ,I was sad to see Mitch break down same spot as croswell etc.but am glad the youngster continues his commitment in Adelaide ,if he calls me I will say my congratulations and don't rush back too soon.

Hope he finally plays to potential he shows and maybe finds a jump shot .
But with a top coach we might see him flourish .
Think could be a better alternative long term than spending $ to keep Weigh.

Mitch only looks good in the warm up. Will be going early again next season.

No reason for Weigh to leave with Creek resigning. Weigh played better and became more of an impact when he had less minutes. Weigh and Creek can share minutes and both become high impact players, reward the one who is playing better with the starting role.

I think passing on Weigh will allow the club to get a decent import and add a bit more firepower to the team. Creek is capable of handling starters minutes.

If Gibson leaves though and Adelaide get an import guard I think Weigh could be worth keeping to play minutes at 3 and 4.

Creek seemed eager to use the minutes (15)
Weigh 32minutes . Most likely about the same in even minutes.

Creek and Weigh have different styles and any coach with half a brain would be salivating at having both in their team. Under situation X you'ld throw Creeky out, situation Y, the Isa Lad would have a go.

Not sure how much of Creek we will see next year. Achilles is a 9 to 12 month injury isn't it. Great news but a bit worried how injury affects him in the future.

The media release said he was on track to suit up for round 1?!

+ 1 from me also.

It should be get one of those guys and an import. NOT both of those guys.

From what I read in Boti's article this morning, Mitch re-signing wasn't really in much doubt. Its great to see loyalty still lives in today's professional sporting world.
