WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JIMMY TOUMPAS

Featured Replies

 

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

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.

 

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

Nah mate, there's at least two of us here!


How did the surgery go on his hip, any other news regarding jimmy?

like José =

So Jayz is Yiddish. Someone should tell Beyonce

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.

 

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

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

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.

TOOOUMPASSSSSSSSSS

really want this kid to make it!!!

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

My dad is from Kos...nice island.

  • 1 year later...

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.

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..

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

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?


Him and Georgie boy are both need to take a

game Greek style and prove their worth.

Edited by Biffen

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?

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.

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
