[BIG JIM 508]

WOW

Hi Caro

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

I'm not going to pretend to know anything about Toumpas, but a lot of people were excited when we picked up Morton with pick four.

I'm more than happy to wait a few years before getting too excited.

At some point we are going to get these picks right.

I choose now.

[Jonesbag 487]

Will be a star!

[QueensBirthday 186]

Honestly, let's look at our Football Dept's effort. They've turned 3, 4, 13, 27 etc. into Hogan, Toumpas, Dawes, Viney. That is a massive effort Dees Ladies and Dees Gents!!! Hats off to you good sir.

Worst case scenario was, Viney, Wines, let's say Nathan Hrovat and who ever is left. Honestly, today feels like daylight robbery, without the gun in hand.

Welcome Jimmy Toumpas, Jack Viney and others who I'm sure we'll get to know better. We're on our way.

You forgot Barry.

I know you said "etc" but Hogan and Barry remain as "twins".

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

I got it right again. ive got to take my new sources out for a beer...

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

Does his dad want a job in recruiting. best way to lock him in?

Screw that. I'm getting excited now. If I'm disappointed in two years time then so be it - I don't expect that I will be though.

[Maldonboy38 6,406]

Can't believe he slipped through to pick 4 and can't believe we got him. He is exactly what we need - a quick, running midfielder who can kick. Yes, we got a top draft pick who can kick!!!

Cowboy - you have been a Dees supporter for too long. Take a Berocca, sit and watch his highlights again and feel the love.

I cant believe it myself to be honest. what happened there? One second he was a certain pick 2? Do GWS have too many talented speeders with poise and disposal already LOL?

He's not soft, he's Greek. Will prove to be a steal, cannot believe the Giants went O'Rourke over him.

Sorry mate but I haven't said a bad word about Jimmy. I'm rapt we have him.

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

GWS have to be tanking to pass him off to us.

[Demon Forever 219]

They recruited for needs (GWS). Simple. Good old case of being in the right place at the right time. Funny enough that I am happy with Toumpas and Viney but to get Kent and Terlich is massive.

Redlegs gun player in this years grand final and won the BOG.

Kent a bonafide Ollie Wines type at a cheap price. Coasters were all ore him as well as the dockers.

fellas! We simply cleaned up

[Deecisive 1,709]

GWS is not tanking its just tom $cully$'s dad doing the picking for them, he is probably trying to get guys who wont show up his boy.

[Kumamoto_Ken 1,531]

$cully$

Speaking of that miserable pile of plop, and there may be some hindsight vision here, but when he was drafted did he look like he had just been told that Phil had sat on his cat on the couch (or possibly just eaten the cat)?

Contrast that with Jimmy T, genuinely looked excited, or "stoked" in the parlance of our times.

[Sir Why You Little 37,125]

Now Mark Neeld has some tough cattle.

Lets go...

[Sideshow Bob 2,410]

Kissed on the dick. bigtime.

i vote we rename the thread - K.O.T.D welcome to Melbourne Jimmy, home of the great Greek Souvlaki.

Serious man crush, and only seen highlights.

[Hannibal 5,814]

I listened on radio, because it's a better coverage and only just watched Foxtel - taped. How happy was Jimmy "the Gun" Toumpas ? I doubt I've ever seen a new draftee as excited and as exuberant.

Love him already.

[rjay 25,087]

Really happy with picking up Jimmy, I've been pushing for him since last year and then thought we had lost him to GWS.

Toumpas and Viney with Jones, Trengove, Howe, Grimes, Silvia, McKenzie, Blease and co. we now have a midfield.
