Player Watch Pick #7 (2012) - Ollie Wines

[FishingRick04]

Wines was dislodged by Toumpas being bumped from the top 3. The Doggies loved Stringer and needed an outside mid (Macrae) to complement their group. Hey presto, pick 7.

Melbourne should have taken wines and left Jimmy to us, the world would have been a nice place then Hopefully Ollie is as good anyway.

It's all done now so go team OLLIE

Even if the Dees had skipped Toumpas, Dogs would've taken him

Toumpas would not have gone past the bulldogs. Exactly the type of player they would want.

 

[Oliver King]

Good get guys, of the top 10 he looks with probably Stringer to be most round one ready.

Stringer looked like a beast in the top 10 line up. He is going to hurt people.

Yep, some bitter Dogs fans when Melbourne tanked their way into picking Toumpas.

Hope so mate

Back on topic, what I like about Wines is his disposal is better than most pure inside players like Clay Smith and the like. Good chance to win the Rising star next year.

The highlights package of him isn't really a good one. It doesn't show any of his stoppage work

Fascinating. I had thought of that clip and this one that some relic would post...



Didn't pick you to go the UB40, Ford!

Too much Cruise on the radio!

Didn't feel right calling him Cheap Wine, but still Barnesy!!!

 

[Macca19]

Could there be a bit of a Rich comparison with him? Leg speed a query allowing him to slide? But did Ollie slide (By my definition is due to a flaw in his style of play) or did he drop because of unexpected selections?

He didnt slide. He only dropped due to selection circumstance. He was locked in at 4 until GWS decided to take O'Rourke instead of Toumpas. Similar to how Salopek fell from being a locked in Saint at 3 to falling to us after Carltons picks were taken away the day before the draft

More...............Wines...............Rhodey please

We need a Mid that'll knock you off your feet

Welcome to the PAFC Oliver Wines.

Well done Peter Rohde

 

[Sin City]

You've got yourselves a beauty here

With all of the Wines puns, we've missed out on the potential for Ollie jokes.

'So Ollie, how do you feel about being drafted?'
'I LOVE FOOTBALL!'
'Thanks Ollie'.

 

[Northalives]

A one grab player. He is a far better prospect than Toumpas.

 

[n4nirvana]

Good drafts guys

Ollie Wines
AND
Pick 4 - Toumpas --> to be cashed in 2 years

 

[El_Scorcho]

Really happy with Wines as a prospect. He'll be able to do the only thing Matt Thomas is apparently good at, which is making space for his fellow mids, while also being an elite stoppage player.

Watch how easy he makes it for the likes of Boak, Hartlett and Broadbent to run and spread and break away from stoppages as he develops.

Exactly what we needed.

Good get guys, of the top 10 he looks with probably Stringer to be most round one ready.

I wouldn't have been disappointed if we picked him.

Thanks Ant for the neutral input.

 

[Jones2ByrneJones]

With Jacobs leaving 16 vacant, perhaps Wines could take it. His twitter handle already has it (@wines16)

 

[Oliver King]

He should get 9.

 

[pastmyprimus]

Club captains normally ring new recruits to welcome them to their new club. You'd be pretty stoked to get a phone call from Chris Judd, Jobe Watson, Gary Ablett or Luke Hodge.

But what was the reaction when Dom called our recruits. I don't know who you are and how did you get my mobile number.

"I'm sorry, you've got the wrong number."
