Both drafted as inside mids with a hunger for contested footy. Both have good skills and endurance. One is Ollie wines the other has trained with a AFL club for 12 months and played VFL footy who is also the son of a champion. Hmmmm I wonder who I would pick?

    Would we have been better off with Oli Wines or Jack Viney?

    Trick question... We were always going to take Viney

    The choice was between Wines and Toumpas.

    Your question is faulty.... Faulty I tell you!

    Why not change the thread to RD's suggestion: Oli or Jim? Is suggest Wines for immediate impact however I have a sneaking suspicion that JT will turn out to be another Robbie Flower!

    Can this troll be banned from starting threads? Seeing Ollie Wines isn't the son of a former player you are just showing your stupidity.

    So becuase Jack is the son of a former player, he is better?

    FMD

    Jack Viney was selected with a father son selection at 26.

    A thead about who would be a better player (wines or viney) or weather we should have picked Wines & Viney over Toumpas & Viney would still be a waste of cyber space, but Would we have been better off with Oli Wines or Jack Viney?

    there are no words!

    Was never going to be choice between those two. Wines or Toumpas is the only relevant question, and given we had Viney in the bag there was no need to get Oli.

  • Quote

    I'm pretty sure what the OP means is that Todd Viney has fathered both these boys and therefore we actually had the choice and did we pick the right one.

    That's what you meant right?

    Ridiculous.

    This is a joke right?

    Because the decision to recruit Toumpas meant we couldn't get Wines.

    Agreed. The real "dis or dat?" question (for those who ponder such hypotheticals) is between Toumpas and Wines, and at this stage I'd pick Wines (even though I still back Toumpas for best 1st year Melbourne player).

    No it's because as a father son we were able to pick him up at 26. You should be asking toumpass or wines. That is a valid argument.

    Was this similar to the debate you had before posting?

    Heroin or ice?

    LMFAO

    Wines is gonna be a star though. We need to pinch him in a couple of years to complete the Viney & Wines fairytale..

    I will let you know around 2016

    Can THIS troll be banned from posting in threads? I mean, you show your stupidity in every post.

    After your efforts for winning tool of the week in the 'gameday thread' a couple of days ago - you have the nerve to hark up at someone else?

    Fool.

    BTW - my pick of Wines as the best mid, inside / outside from the draft a few months ago.. wasnt too far off huh? You were in the process of disagreeing when we last spoke..

    That was before you began slagging me off in other threads..

    This is a joke right?

    Because the decision to recruit Toumpas meant we couldn't get Wines.

    I really think we messed up not taking all 3 (Wines instead of Hogan - then Toumpas and Viney) -besides the fact were short on mids,

    its no good having an elite forward line if it doesnt get down there..

    Lovin the 'Hulk', but for me - its mids, mids, mids..

But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.
