Fresh eyes need to go through the entire operation. This massive plummet of 2019 has happened for a reason, it’s not just bad luck Quote
whatwhat say what 23,863 Posted August 9, 2019 Posted August 9, 2019 straight swap for viney? half-skip for half-skip? both are inside mid bulls who lead by deed i hope wines can come back to play good footy for the pear Quote
Sir Why You Little 37,458 Posted August 9, 2019 Posted August 9, 2019 I would play Ollie in the forward line. The ball would stay down there a lot more Quote

GCDee 3,202 Posted August 9, 2019 Posted August 9, 2019 I know he is exactly the type of player we don't need, but I feel it is justice bringing Ollie to where he belongs and should be once and for all. [censored] you Neeld. Quote

Little Goffy 14,966 Posted August 9, 2019 Posted August 9, 2019 It is not his 'first position' but I agree that Wines might be of value to us as an extra bit of toughness and hunting inside-50, a little bit like the role Vandenberg is optimal for. So, obviously, Wines becomes more appealing in the event that Vandenberg retires. This is of course on the understanding that Wines would become a valuable addition to our stoppage options as well. Doesn't get us any closer to having the zippy goalsneak and fast-pressure players our forward line could use, though. Hmm, becomes an even more awkard shaped forward line, practically everyone in it except Weideman and McDonald is actually a half-forward or a midfielder-forward. Wines, Petracca, Melksham, Fritsch, Lochkart? Hunt? Hannan? What could be comedy value at least is to end up with a forward line that is basically just another midfield, except up the end of the ground. Centre bounce, mongrel clearance forward, stoppage, clearance, mogrel kick at goal, repeat. And our centres don't even run forward, they just wait across the midfield zones to cover the rebound, and ready on the spot for the next centre bounce if the plan works! Would be the ugliest game style of the modern era... but it could work! Anyway, Wines is signed at Port until 2022 and the article is a beat up - Wines is being given a week at SANFL level to be sure he is fresh and the decision was maybe a little influenced by the sentiment of keeping together the team which hammered Essendon on the weekend. Probably not much to see here. 1 Quote

old55 23,864 Posted August 9, 2019 Posted August 9, 2019 I'd like to see Viney tried as a small forward. He has some real acceleration, could get to fall of the ball and win the contest, is a generally clean ball-handler, and would be a genuine tackling threat that would spark fear and panic in opposition defenders. There has been some resistance raised from a good judge because his kicking is not great and our inability to convert has really hurt us. This could well be the killer but he could not be worse than ANB. 4 Quote
