The Ollie Whines Lounge

[P-man 13,366]

Presenting The Ollie Whines Lounge. A place where all the ollie whiners can come to mingle.

What's that? Ollie Wines had 46 disposals, 18 clearances, 14 tackles and kicked 7 goals? Need to cry into someone's shoulder?

This is the place for you.

Forget creating new threads to tell the world how angry you are.

Forget "gee that Wines kid goes alright, thanks Mark" in every second thread.

This is your one stop shop for the great big sook.

In The Ollie Whines Lounge, you can bleat and moan to your heart's content, free from the judgement of others. Never again will your insistence that you "knew Wines would be a star" fall on deaf, uninterested ears.

Enjoy our unrivalled selection of tissues and hard liquor.

Relax on our vinyl couches where the tears just roll right off.

For the dead eye dicks, you will find our dart boards, each with a bullseye featuring either Mark Neeld or that awful Jimmy Toumpas. Show your friends who really wanted Wines more.

After hours and feeling that impending mix of sadness and anger? Retreat to our Self Flagellation Room (proudly sponsored by BBO).

Whine in comfort and style in The Ollie Whines Lounge.

And when you leave, please, for the love of god, shut the [censored] up about Ollie Wines.

The irony

I heartily endorse this thread. Hopefully we can contain all the:

to this thread - The Ollie Whinge thread

[gsmith12 491]

Amen.

I've been one to try to disassociate the Wines vs Toumpas decision, just focus on our player make him the best we can. But jeez I was devasted reading his stats from last night.

Agree.

[Dr evil 1,185]

I watched that game and sat there closing my eyes wishing we had taken Wines and it was all just a bad dream.

[Green Machine 63]

Toumpas is clearly the better option, we are the winners on this one fellas.

Ollie Wines if nothing else is a topical and relevant reminder that we need to get drafting right.

We obviously didtn do our dilligence well ( if at all )

Some seem happily dismissive of this.

Yep..we cant change that fukk up bit should serve as sobering incentive to get better at it.

Jack Watts is probably loving Wines' good form. It takes attention away from the Watts vs. NikNat debate (especially now that people are noticing NikNat is more sizzle than steak).

[Little Goffy 14,545]

Darling, Shuey, Martin, hell, some fool even suggested we dudded ourselves with the Tyson trade because 'we could have drafted Lewis Taylor'.

Some people will always sink into the second guessing and ever so superior hindsight.

I really hope this thread works and keeps that sludge out of the main threads.

Watching the game I was thrilled for him in what was a great performance. Loved watching a tough, young player tear it ip in a final.

Each to their own.

It's a very easy game for the feeble-minded. Scan a list of any draft, pick any good player in the whole comp that was taken after any Melbourne pick and get cracking on the negativity

What they don't seem to realise is that you go to the forum for 17 other clubs and do exactly the same thing

[Roger Mellie 4,025]

Can all the mods dump all the Ollie Wines threads in here too along with Picket Fence's 200 broken record repeat nauseating references.

Thanks

I don't mind supplying the equipment (and technical advice if required) but I want everything cleaned up before it is returned.

[picket fence 17,169]

Don't know if this theory has been Touted but I just wonder" wonder" if Viney chose Toumpas because he might have had his Son's best interests at heart. I mean to say Wines is twice the player Viney is, even maybe more so. Hnmm some food for thought!

That would be so far from the truth to be funny. He would want his son playing in a good midfield and successful side, with his good mate.

You need more than 1-2 good mids to be a good side.

[picket fence 17,169]

So why didn't he take him????? And if we don't point the finger at Neeld then Why when he knew the ability of Wines, was his sons best mate and wanted to come to the dees?

WHY ??????

[Dr evil 1,185]

Because at the time 90% of the football industry thought toumpas was better picket fence.

[picket fence 17,169]

Well for once it's good to be in minority even though it does my head in!

[binman 42,961]

Toumpas is clearly the better option, we are the winners on this one fellas.

100% agree. Overrated is wines

[Demon Dynasty 17,109]

I think the Toump over whines selection is just a continuation of nearly a decade's worth of choosing "the wrong option" at the MFC up until PJ came in and appointed Roos anyway.

We've paid a massive price for many years of sub par decision making both off and on the field. After so many dumbass deceisions, appointments and selction mistakes It will take twice as long to try and resurect this club.

I would advise any member who hasn't already done so to go out and buy yourself about 100 cases of your fav WHINE. I reckn by the time you're onto the 100th case you might finally start to see some light. In the meantime you won't remember any of the crap being dished up on the field.

which means I'll listen to the OTHER 10% then
