Oli or Jack

Recommended Posts

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?

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!

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

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.

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.

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).

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

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.

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.

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..

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
