Ollie Wines....meh !!!

 
 

Oliver Wines is a star. Pity MFC could not get him. ohhhh but we had a chance to ... Neeld mistakes are numerous.

(my 25th post about how in the hell did we chose Toumpas over Wines).


Wonder if we could approach Wines when his contract is up? Not sure when that is though.

Explain to him that the MFC were a rabble when we should have drafted him and give him the opportunity to be coached by Roos and play with his best mate Viney.

Might work especially if PJ, Roos and Viney gets in his ear

Toumpas over Wines

and we were a club that needed ready made bodies more than any other

massive fail

So you think if we had taken Wines, we would be playing finals this year? Get real!

Toumpas has shown in the last few games that he is on the way and another pre-season under Roos will see him doing better and better. It's way to early to say that Wines is better than Toumpas... let's see how they are looking after they have each played 50 games.

 

As disappointing as it is to see how much of a gamebreaker Ollie Wines has already become, I am loving seeing Port tearing apart the pies in the last quarter. Perfect start to the finals so far.


Ollie Wines was excellent tonight. I know there's been lots said about last year's draft and sure The Toump may turn out to be a fine player, but it sure makes me sad seeing just what we missed out on.

Love seeing buckies and Eddie spaghettis faces. Looks like they are both about to cry. Priceless

At least they can keep each other warm in bed tonight!

Based on today I am not confident Geelong will beat port, should be a close game


This isn't a zero sum game. Ollie was great tonight, but Toumpas has attributes that Wines will never develop. Just enjoy them both, because each of them will turn out to be excellent players.

Yep. Match winning, big game player.

There's no reason that can't be us in twelve months time.


Just goes to show how quickly things can turn port were us last year, new coach new hope

So you think if we had taken Wines, we would be playing finals this year? Get real!

what an absolutely ridiculous stance.

Thats not the point at all. He we have a kid , ready made, playing finals and taking by the scruff of its neck,,,coz he CAN

we got a kid struggling.. Yeah yeah many will sugar coat it but Dimitri was supposed to be a ready made, played agaisnt emn etc etc etc...blah blah blah

thing is ..we picked the wrong one.

its about who was a better choice, who may have added more to OUR pie.

answer is pretty easy to see really isnt it

Well done Port

suck eggs Eddie

So you think if we had taken Wines, we would be playing finals this year? Get real!

yeah cos i totally said that

not

 

yeah cos i totally said that

not

Then why the use of "massive fail"? What was one solid body going to get us this year? As I said, wait until they have both played 50 games and let's see how they compare.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
