News Port Adelaide announces co-captains - Ollie Wines and Tom Jonas

[LP7_]

I’m with Smithy here. If Ollie was leaving, he would’ve announced it Wednesday afternoon two weeks out from the end of the home and away season. #confirmedstaying

Ivan Milat - “I had nothing to do with those murders”.

Smithy - “Didn’t you hear him? He said he had nothing to do with the murders...”

Co captains starting tp pay off according to Rucci, what we finally won 2 games in a row... . Big ****** deal. If you watched us play every week you wouldn't know Wines and Jonas were our captains !

 

[DaTBird187]

It’s like our own little portal to a more innocent time.

 

[Kiss from a Rozee]

We'd have to get a ridiculous offer to part with Wines IMO.

I also very much doubt his decision to leave won't change for better or worse depending on the rest of the season.

I can understand why he'd want a fresh start though, this has been an absolutely horrible year for him, and I have little doubt he sees plenty of s**t our supporters say about him. s**t has consequences yo.

Sweet Jesus. If Wines is upset because people rightly point out that he is unable to play properly due to his shoulder problems of his own making, then Bonner needs to be put on special watch because the vitriol directed to Bonner this season makes any slightly less than favourable comments made about Wines look like compliments. FFS

If Ollie wanted out based on supporter reaction he's a million miles from captain material. He also needs to be seeking a trade to Gold Coast where no one gives a * about on field performance

 

[Rendaw]

If anyone is up for a laugh a Wines thread is now going on the Drafts, Trading & Free Agency board.

Co-captaincy, it's a winner!

If Rucci articles didn't get posted on BigFooty, I would honestly not know he exists.

I remember when vic metro (oakleigh/bentleigh) darcy byrne jones was really home sick and couldn't get a game at port. He was wondering what he was doing at port. Then there was the time he slept through his alarm clock and got suspended by the leadership group for failing to live up to the clubs standards. I love Darcy.

I remember when Tom Clurey couldn't make the side and lots of Victorian clubs were trying to lure him home. He chose to stay at Port even though it wasn't the easy thing to do. I love Tom.

I wouldn't mind co-captains if it was Darcy and Tom.

Having co captains is an insult to our club. Happy 150th Port Adelaide, we don't give a s**t about the supporters or logic. Let's have co captains for no specific reason other than that of egotistical individuals instead of what's best for the whole club. They couldn't even justify it in the media without making any sense. Just another reason to move those selfish flogs on. They don't deserve to be at our club.

Ollie's thumb 'could break pretty easily', but it won't hold him back

Ollie Wines says there's a slight risk his thumb could break pretty easily, but he's willing to roll the dice with the Power's season on the line

www.afl.com.au

Wines had 22 touches and two goals against the Swans after coming into the side when youngster Zak Butters was ruled out with a bruised sternum.


"Initially, I was pretty frustrated with the call, but once I could think a little bit logical, it made a bit of sense," Wines said.


"I've had a really interrupted year so I understood I needed that game time in the SANFL."

 

[Arintaraj]

Didn't Ollie once say that if Hinkley left Ports he would too?

Maybe there's hope.

No he didn't.
When he last extended his contract, a reporter asked if ever thought about leaving and he said yeah when it looked like Ken was leaving (end of 2017).

Listen carefully to what Ollie said in press conference ... He is not leaving Port ..

Can't understand why you're copping s**t for being positive about our captain wanting to stay. Keep posting what ever you want M8 don't let the pack of bullies get the better of you.

 

[NEGAN]

So where are we at with the Wines trade deal?

I'm not someone who thinks players should be wrapped in cotton wool and shielded from criticism but Jesus Christ some people just want to beat a dead horse with the waterskiing thing.

He injured himself on Australia Day and for some it's still worth bringing up at every opportunity, even though he's had other injuries that have impacted on his season.
The guy admitted he stuffed up, obviously felt s**t about it and any time he says or does anything it gets brought up.

Just support the guy, it's not that hard.

Late first or Fantasia + pics seems to be the going rate.

 

[Hong-Kong Phooey]

has someone hacked C4's account?

 

[bringbackbucky]

I like Ollie. He could still be the player we all thought he'd become. Needs to lose some weight. Think his overhead marking is a bit underrated. Should be more of a weapon for him. Could still be a 2 goal a game midfielder. Just put the number 1 on and get on with it.

Would be interested to know his reasons for potentially wanting to move. Would have to be personal rather than Club related...

If Ollie stays, I'd be delisting Rockliff.

I am scrolling through this thread at the rate of knots so can't requote whoever said it but anyone who thinks that Ollie has suffered abuse or a hard deal from here needs to calm down and have a rethink and consider the deal that players like Bonner, Pittard, and even Sutcliffe to some extent have endured and realise that by comparison Wines has been treated like a prince.

Ollie has been treated very well considering his decision to ruin this season with his shoulder injury. Nah he wouldn't be complaining about his treatment. I doubt he is that big of a sook.

I still feel for Ollie but Jasper’s abuse has been next level, which I have posted many times. I am glad he has found his new club so welcoming. And he is a very nice fella too.

You can’t spell propaganda without “PA” hey Rooch?
