hmmm. Maybe you should give up on trolling Port for a few weeks. "He is only as good as D.Rich" is not your best work (actually it might be).
but no, Wines has a far better all-round game, bigger tank, and is the biggest mid at every ball up. Rich is good but Wines will be a superstar.
Enjoy the next 10 years.

Superstar? The kid has played 13-14 games. Bit early but then again this is their next superstar.

Simply saying a larger sample size is required. FTR I am on record as a Mitchell (both Father and Son) fan.
Our young gun is better. No, ours!
**** how about giving them more than half a season before we decide?

Will be good when Toumpas returns to SA to play alongside Wines in a couple of season!

Thought this thread would be about something the young man did that should be punished lol.
Saw his impressive stats as the sub - thought he came on early to get those. If that's from 1 quarter's work, that's an amazing effort by any standards

His last quarter
Wines is a ripper. You just look at him and think a few preseasons of running and gym work and he's going to be a BEAST in the centre square.
I think the hype of JOM is entirely justified when you see what that kid can do, but it's ONLY because of JOM's awesomeness that anyone is downplaying Wines. He will be a pitbull in 2 years, and a guy to build around for 10+.

Been a long time since Port fans have had much to hang their hat on, we are bound to be enthusiastic.

Will be a good player no doubt.
But one must remember, as a sub you must come on and have an impact.
You have more energy than every other player on the ground and if you are half decent, should be able to attack the ball like the opposition is running through treacle halfway through the last quarter.
See Matty White's last few games as a specialist sub for reference.
Isn't the player Ollie Wines one day will be, but Wines needs to play out and dominate full games before we laud him as a potential top five mid in the comp.

And those are just basic stats. He might not have the athletic skills of O'Meara but his hardness at the contest is second to none. See his tackles against players such as Rodan and Harry O. Yes it may be slightly over the top but he is playing as good as any first year player in the past 10 years.
Edit: Also averaging only 70% time on ground so far, well below most other rising star potentials.

Good stats but hardly dominant. Solid and very good for a first year player. Supporters build these young guys up so early, but good on them if they have the expectation that they will be a top five player in the comp in the next few years. Now he's set in stone, I wonder who the other four will be.
