Oliver Wines

Featured Replies

Even on just those highlights I saw him get first dibs on the footy a few times.

Definitely an inside mid who keeps running to receive after initiating the ball movement.

Quality.

 

YEP wines for me , ah just havin one now , lol

Whereas a few days ago I thought Wines was a lock if we wanted him, I am now not so sure. GWS has thrown a cat among the pigeons, with their offer of trading early picks.

I don't think much will happen with that offer, as they will want stars from other clubs and it may be all show for the AFL, to demonstrate that they were willing to get older players, as the AFL intended, but that deals couldn't be done.

However if they do manage a trade of picks 2 or 3 that may change the dynamic. While I am confident GWS would take Grundy and maybe Plowman or Toumpas, that might not happen if another club gets one of those picks.

Interesting times ahead.

 

I would still take Wines at number 2 or 3

I sense that if Ollie is there at 4 hes ours. As though some sort of compact exists


If we get Wines it will absolutely make this the best draft ever for us, if he goes before we have the chance then Toumpas if available or O'Rourke.

You would think that GWS would take Grundy in first 3, or at least I hope..

Whitfield Grundy and Toumpas... Leaving Wines for us..

Would you take Ball Judd or hodge? If all the reports are somewhat true and these new draftee's are nearly as good as being discussed and reach there potential it won't matter much will it?

 

I think some may well be overlooking the synergy that a Wines-Viney teaming brings. These guys will feed off of each other. The way two tied competitors do, each trying to out do the other, a game within a game, the winner ? US !!

and chemistry, something that I cant remember our team ever having

Trengove and Tappscott were meant to bring the same energy...hasn't really happend that way.

At the end of the day these boys are good mates.

think youll find there something more with Wines-Viney. Time will tell of course

at the end of the day they are both fiercely competitive. :)

Would you take Ball Judd or hodge?

We heard the same things about Scully and Trengove. I'm happy to get excited but the proof will be in a few years time.

Funnily enough, I am genuinely excited about Viney because of his acceleration, size and fight for the contest.

How often has Trengove and Tapscott been in the center square together on a bounce, or even been played on the same side of the field

Andrew McLeod hated one teamate (can't think of his name) but they both played very good football together

Agree the 2012 vintage "Oliver Wines" would fit very well into the MFC. If he went earlier, then O"Rourke or Toumpas would be handy acquisitions.

No, you usually associate that with Meth Coast.

They had the opposite to chemistry in Kerr and Cousins.

Trenners has been injured for most of the season and Tappy has had his share of injury problems too, so hopefully with the pair being injury free next year we may start to see the best of them. Tappy is hardly mentioned on here and it's mainly because he had that hip injury and several problems afterwards; he's a quality footballer and sometimes we forget that.

Very very funny. :)

Why can't there be a hand over the top of the head emoticon?

He had a great 1st quarter on the half forward line, against Adelaide in round 21.

I am yet to be sold on Tappy, i think he gets away with alot more than say Gysberts just because he has the size imo, he has not had the games Gysberts has while in the side imo.

He needs a solid, uninterrupted, pre season, if you recall he was running laps with the rehab group for much of the last pre season and didn't get in to the main bunch until very late in the process.

I think he will be very good and I don't think we've seen anywhere the best so far; the difference between him and Gys is that he wants to do the hard yards and Gys doesn't appear to. I hope that Gys will stay and start to get his act together because he could be a valuable member of the side.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
