WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JIMMY TOUMPAS

[Travis Boots 157]

Speaking of which, i am the only greek around these parts?!

[FarNorthernD 5,848]

Wines will make friends, get games, and I doubt he will want to leave Port for quite a while, if ever.

If he does at some point choose to leave the Power, I don't think he'll be coming to us. I wouldn't want to come to a club that had passed on me.

I don't think Wines will ever play for us either but not because we overlooked him. Most players will know their place in the pecking order and who is better than who. I'm guessing Ollie never thought we would take him if Toumpas was still available

[Hannibal 5,814]

Happy to have a fellow greek playing for us. Dont feel so out of place now. Haha

Actually Jimmy is Australian, but of Greek ancestory.

Jimmy already fitting in really well just looking at the tweeting hes doing with Magner, Frawley and Jones. [censored] stirring with Jones is good to see.

[Ron Burgundy 8,584]

I was hoping the club would give this guy number 1.

[beelzebub 22,225]

I was hoping the club would give this guy number 1.

what about 3...he could probably keep a barber busy !!

[Matt Demon 1,387]

Nice interview with Jimmy on SEN

http://www.sen.com.au/audioplayer/Audio/Melbourne-recruit-Jimmy-Toumpas/6675

[monoccular 16,131]

I just listened to the SEN interview - he sounds like a great kid, and living with the Vineys must be very stabilising for him, and a great compliment on the esteem that he is held at the club.

[Carn dees 108]

TOOOUMPASSSSSSSSSS

really want this kid to make it!!!

[Demonic_Inferno 17]

Speaking of which, i am the only greek around these parts?!

My dad is from Kos...nice island.

[s-t-i-n-g-a 439]

I am not Greek but i have been there...briefly on my way to Kalymnos...Love the Greek islands!

[Pennant St Dee 11,324]

Grundy would be another potential pick #2 but GC do not need a ruckman

We would possibly go Grundy, Wines, Garlett, Mayes, Stringer (If we are feeling foolish)

God i hope we land this kid. Last year demonland had a forum " the finding another Jack Trengove thread", consider him found. If GC dont take him We got damn better.

Just wow! To think you have the distinct lack of fortitude that you continually post your dismay that we took Toumpas over Wines. And correct me if I'm wrong but you've even commented on how bad our recruiters are because Toumpas is playing VFL whilst the likes of Mcrae(who you don't mention) & Stringer(who we'd have been foolish to take) are carving it up for the Bulldogs.

[dazzledavey36 48,869]

Sorry Bossdog i am still drinking it's party time.This kid will bring membership up over the next 10 years.Welcome to all our Greek family.Jimmy will win a brownlow in the next 6 years. Big call i know but put it on the record now.I have the feeling this will be MFC Judd,Buddy,SwanOur next true A grade star has been born.Sorry guys just very happy.

Aaand there it is..

[Dr evil 1,185]

2015 Jimmy needs to be holding down a regular spot in the senior side or he is gone imo,

having said that the comparisions to Wines are pointless, it's like watching your ex girlfriend and new partner, feeling just get hurt, especially after he took freo apart last night in a big final.

I still believe if Jimmy is given a really good pre season and a great run at it next year and can hold down a spot in the senior side he can develop into a good player for us, or if we decide to trade him we might get something alright in return, and he might blossom over in SA

[picket fence 15,244]

Toumpas a big NO from me.

Far too much probability of go home factor against this kid if my mail is right!

WINES WINES AND WINES without a moment's hesitation.

Ah the sweet smell of prophesy!! nearly two years ago I said it Sheeeeeit I should be a recruiter!! If Phil whats his face can then surely the "Fence" can trump him!

But the "go home" factor was your only knock on him ... you fail to mention any other factors. And again, it's too late now to add anything extra.

So ... if Jimmy doesn't go home, can we assume that you're happy with the decision to draft him?

[Biffen 12,342]

Him and Georgie boy are both need to take a

game Greek style and prove their worth.

Edited September 14, 2014 by Biffen

[picket fence 15,244]

Nup not happy at the time and still not happy but as I have said if the go home factor is correct it is just one of many reasons we should not have gone near him>

Um the other is WINES CAN PLAY not seen anything to suggest this bloke can!

Yeah but if your old flame was pretty special and you were seduced by the possibility of something better and she turned out to be a "Shocker" then how would you feel?

[Machsy 2,858]

Picket... you're a plank.

Do you breathe new light into other peoples lives dude? You seem to be so misunderstood here on DL.

Or are you really the dikchead you come across as?

Oops, no need to answer, I think I know.
