Recommitted Ollie Wines [re-signed until 2026]

[straightuplazy]

Fantasia and Essendon’s First should get it done

Believe GWS has our first this year and can't hand over 2020 first due to the trade rules I think

 

[Schulzenfest]

A Fantasia/Ollie Wines straight swap would be a win for Port Adelaide.


Port have other players more than capable in the midfield. They need better goal scorers.

Fantasia is a forward who's never kicked 40 goals in a season and who's only kicked 30+ goals in a season once, two years ago. This is a laughable post.

Isn't Ollie Wines playing SANFL.

 

[schmuttt]

Trading him now after he's just had easily the worst year of his career and he's contracted for the next 3 years would be moronic. On that basis I fully expect us to do it.

I fully expect us to be equally moronic and offer pick 2 for him.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Isn't Ollie Wines playing SANFL.

Umm ... no. No he isn't. I feel like I shouldn't need to point that out, as it's very easily publicly accessible information, but no he isn't. Next question?

No.

He came back from injury through the SANFL, but so has almost everyone this year.

I’ll give you our first as long as you throw in another player as steak knives with tatts, a s**t hair cut, wears long sleeves?

 

[Tiger Tim]

More than that - Ollie is a champ unlike that girly-man Wingard.

 

[foxdog50]

Surely this is BS that he wants to return back to Victoria.... Just another story to start up i suppose...

Supposedly was looking at a trade a couple of years ago, but surely that ship has sailed. Signed a five year deal, took up a captaincy role. Why leave now?

We don’t have a first rounder. Hence why we wouldn’t be involved here.

2020 first. AFL makes exceptions to the restriction rule all the time.

Your club should be doing everything it can to land a tall, powerful midfielder like Wines. Difference in midfield power was by far the biggest difference between us and you a week and a half ago.

Lol way to twist the truth.

He was going to play SANFL until Butters was a late out due to injury just the other week.

Because Wines himself was coming back from injury having not played for a month.

Come on mate, even the coach said he wasn't best 22

 

[Red Bull]

Shame for us if he leaves this year, Essendon have been him to multiple times in past years but have been unable to shake him loose.

This year we have zero trade currency so wouldn’t be in the hunt.

If Milton goes to Sydney you will have currency.
The guts of a trade could be :
Carlton pick 7~8(Adelaide) to Sydney for Papley.
Pick 7~8 to Essendon for Milton.
Pick 7~8 to Port for Wines.
There would obviously need to be add on’s, but there is a starting point to work from.

 

[HirdyLannister]

Wines is up there with the most overrated midfielder in the comp. On out put/career so far he is work a 1x 10-15 pick.

But the port nufs say he is captain and has 3 years on contract, so what.. Doesn't mean he is elite...

 

[Schulzenfest]

Come on mate, even the coach said he wasn't best 22

He absolutely did not say that. He said that he didn't want to change a winning team. To his huge detriment, Ken very rarely changes a winning team. It's why Todd Goldstein had arguably a career best game on the weekend against a rookie in his 5th game while last year's premiership ruckman sat in the SANFL.

Wines has been on our list for seven years. If you can find a team sheet that reads "Ollie Wines (omitted)", even once, throughout that seven year period, I'll concede that I'm wrong. But don't bother looking, because you'd be wasting your time.

Hypothetical trade

EFC In: Wines
Out: Francis, second round pick

Would love to keep Francis - as he is our Hurley replacement but We do need that inside grunt midfielder a role we have lacked since Watson retired.
I guess Port would enquire about Fantasia and Redman as well.
And with Hooker + Hurley a few years left as well as Ambrose who has improved heaps, plus a developing zerk thatcher - we probably have the option to offload a key defender like we did with Carlise.

Would rather do

Orazio + 2nd for Wines + 3rd

We can cover the loss of orazio but francis is part of our future defense.

I'd rather not take either Essendon player we don't need.

And as far as s**t trades, that's up there..

I think that trade will remain hypothetical. Wines is worth a mid first and change. Don’t think Francis and a second comes close.

Don't need LOL
For a team sitting 11th you need all types of players and a miracle.

All we need is a new coach.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

They've been pretty clear they're after two first rounders.

I think that probably about right to be honest as long as they aren't top 10 picks.

But I doubt they'll get it so I think he'll be staying.

I dunno, call me crazy but the cats are likely about to get two firsts for 25 year old Kelly. 25 year old wines might be a decent replacement. He's had a bad year but is a bull. West Coast stooge us with two late firsts I'd give them up for wines. Almost like for like
