Recommitted Ollie Wines [re-signed until 2026]

[Schnitzengruben]

He didn't rumour his manager asked the question if Ollie really wanted out we would of made it happen unlike Essendon holding players against their will.

Not how it was reported. Didn't help that Ollie was dropped as co-captain after the fact, or Port's cleverly worded media release that avoided the actual report.

Against their will =/= Contracted, btw.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Ollie would think otherwise - why else would he meet with Carlton last year?

That was 10 months ago. You may not have noticed but since then his current team has shot to the top of the ladder and his home state has been locked down with a deadly virus. Ollie wanting out last year is no guarantee that he still wants out now.

I guess you can look at it this way, or you can say clubs are holding players to contracts they willingly signed, and players are looking to break contracts

 

[Adz2332]

wonder if he is having second thoughts now about trying carlton again?
Carlton have yet again faulted this season and Port sitting top. And having some genuine excitement around with the crop of young guys we have

Granted i cant see us staying top there but finals are almost a cert

I see it both ways if a player desperately wants out probably better to move them on.

Then why didn't Port move Ollie on?

Carlton busy with Papley and it was too late into trade period. Just my guess.

and the price wasn't right.

From what I've heard, Port might look to offload Ollie this year to get back into the 1st round (smart move), but Ollie might not want to move (if the offer is equal to Ports).

I think he will be gone, Carlton probs the location.

currently pick 7 but that would go wayyyyy back down the order with compo, academies and father sons etc

There are only 2 players (Campbell and JUH) who would likely go inside the top 7, so it won't go "wayyyyy" back down, maybe only 2 spots, which isn't dissimilar to other years.

And if a team offered pick 7 for Wines, firstly they'd be stupid, and secondly they'd probably want something in return.

I'd suggest 7 for Wines and a pick in the 20s is a good deal for Port

 

[philthy05]

Well you would think that.

the reality is that teams throw away draft pick after draft pick chasing guys remotely as good as wines.

if thats the offer Port would have a laugh and walk away

Then why didn't Port move Ollie on?

Clearly wasn't desperate to get out we were obviously keen to get another first rounder hence shipping Howard out.

 

[THE_GUN]

Well, Wines is available - that's why he was shopping himself around last year.

But we've been over this. Glass shoulders, big coin and looks like his best is behind him. Would much prefer someone cheaper and without the form/injury problems, let alone huge cap constraint which could be put to much better use.

How much for that KPF you guys have for sale , the one who wanted to go to sydney last year

That would work for port if they can stock up on later picks for the F/S players we have this year and get a low pick before. Trade some picks around to help both parties.

Play like he did today and he will cost a premium.
That performance was Wines of old.

Full-time stats:
28 disposals
23 contested possessions
11 tackles
10 clearances

Last few games, he's been Rolling into great form

 

[philthy05]

Has had a strong past 3 weeks from memory. He’s moving really well. Kicking goals as well.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Inside midfielder takes time to work into form after shoulder injury interrupted preseason, who would have thought?

 

[Buzzasto DaSilva]

Shows the benefit of having a consistent pre-season which Wines has been deprived of for the past four years. He looks lighter, fitter and a lot calmer with the ball in his hands. He's in great form.

 

[philthy05]

22 of his 28d were contested possies.
10 clrs
1 goal.

has looked to be enjoying his footy. Hoping he is keen to stay. We’ve got 2 years of contract to convince him or get something nice back.

 

[JUSTWORK]

Phenomenal tonight.

 

[Total Power]

Was an absolute beast last night and kicked a goal too. The game before that he has 18 possies with 51% gametime.

Absolutely must keep.

 

[TheGrizz]

In form midfielder who is Vice-captain of the top team on the ladder.

Why the hell would he leave? No chance.

In his latest interview on radio Ollie said he wont be leaving Port as he loves Port and the Players. So that's that.
Who would go to Victoria with their Corona Virus problems ... Geez
