Reckon Wines has a bigger upside then Cogs. I would say at the worst Ollie Wines is Jordan Lewis.

Same. I actually think the two are very much alike.
Can anyone compare the Combine data of the two?

Maybe, think 9 is getting closer to his correct position though.
His kicking isn't natural or fluent enough for leysy to like him any higher.
Respect that your a fan scoop, & still think he can be solid enough.
Would probably be stronger in leysy view but haven't had the time to get right into this years draft crop.
Also wouldn't be certain we'd take Wines (or many) over Vlastuin either.
We have a different ranking system that puts different priorities on players, so the guys we really like are often rated far higher by us than at other clubs.

That's actually a big complimet Scoop, pre-injury Cogs was one of the best inside mids in the game - 15 Brownlow votes, 40 possession games, B&F winner. If it wasn't for the dreaded OP and then knee injury, he would have been a club legend.
The Macrae and Daisy comparison is an interesting one, although I'd say Daisy is a better mark and probably a better kick. On the other hand, Macrae seems to rack up more possessions and already has an impressive engine. There's nothing really stopping him from emulating a player like Gaff and playing midfield very early on in the piece.

Gee, Ollie even looks like a junior Dustin Martin.
I haven't seen his long-range kicking; hope it's as good.
Seems to be better 'life-focused' than Dustin too.
If he can kick, that's the type of midfielder we want.

Spend a lot more time on the turf in that clip than Dusty would, but its a big benchmark. I'd rather Wines than Vlastuin, but theres a few id prefer over Wines. In less than 30 hours, all these hypotheticals will be a bunch of hypotheticals in AFL jumpers.

Yeah agree Phanto and has that bollocking style of run like dusty....Wines has very good endurance that's a big plus in my eyes....

ON top of that, consistently doing big numbers is always a big plus for me. At worst you will get a solid 10 year inside citizen.AstuteTiger said:Yeah agree Phanto and has that bollocking style of run like dusty....Wines has very good endurance that's a big plus in my eyes....
