Hawthorn received chump change for Mitchell, any club could have taken advantage of that situation, you even admit it yourself. Mitchell could have been secured on the cheap, he eventually went cheap and a second rounder would have been sufficient, both Collingwood & Geelong have done well in this instance. This notion that Mitchell cost Henry is also misleading, he didn't, Hawthorn were not the beneficiaries of Henry, Collingwood used him to splice their picks and spread the draft capital. This is a prime example of first class trading from two clubs and one example of a salary cap dump and receiving unders for a former Brownlow medalist.
