Hey deers

Have not noticed stringer at all. So not sure what has happened there.

Nascent, agree mate. Toumpas is so balanced and disposes beautifully. I like wines but would go toumpas anyday.

Whitfield, can see why there is the hype with him at 1. Another vc bloke who looks like a bulocking darling type forward in tim membrey. Looks ok.

I can see a potential Wines v Toumpas v Stringer thread happening

I rate them as

1 - Stringer

2 - Wines

3 - Toumpas

Wines beats Toumpas due to chemistry with young jacky boy, but thats my opinion.

Maybe if no1 bids for Viney, we could try trade pick 3 & 4 for him.

GC will be unbelievable in a few years, Swallow, O Meara and Whitfield in the mid-field...

Fair call re wines/stringer/toumpas.

I see it diFferently:

1. Toumpas

2. Wineds

3. Stringer

But reckon I'll defer to todd on viney on this one!

Added note, wines def picked it up a notch in scond half - v impressive.

Game overall a really good standard. Some impressive kids I reckon will also be picked up later in draft.

If Wines is good now imagine how good he will be when he "matures"????

he might need to develop with Sellars-Viney could give him a good start ,and then he could shape himself around Glass .

Edit :sorry if those jokes are not your vintage.

But if you dont like them it's probably a case of sour grapes.

viney has been quite but shows he is a quality player. but to the melbourne football club please do everything you can to get oliver wines the kid is going to be a star! him and viney would be a masterstroke! reminds me of mark reccuito with his hardness and kicking.

watched most of both games thus far. real stand-outs in the first game for me were:

grundy (sa ruckman)

stringer (vic c winger / half forward / 3rd tall forward type)

wines (vic c in-and-under midfielder)

toumpas (smooth moving sa in- and outside mid)

kennedy (small, zippy sa outside mid / small forward)

membrey (bullocking vic c third tall forward type - be interesting to see where he fits in the afl)

whitfield (vic c ball magnet - beautiful off both sides)

based on what i've seen of the vic m-wa clash thus far, no way is viney worth #3 in the draft. still hope we get him for that second round pick tho!

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
