PORT ADELAIDE vice-captain Ollie Wines has strengthened his commitment to the club by agreeing to terms on a four-year contract extension.
Already contracted until the end of the 2022 season, the 26-year-old’s new deal will see him remain with Port Adelaide until the end of 2026.

Is this a good thing or bad thing?

Good thing imho. Very good player when fit, Boak and Rockliff getting near the end means they'll need Ollie more than ever. Still tradeable if he and/or the club wantaway but this way the club gets more say over what they might receive in return. Smart move by Port imho.

You guys would be happy if you tuck away Wines, get Allir and Fantasia in as well as Jones.
Would mean you have added 3 X firsts from 2018 - which seems to be working out ok.
3 X firsts from 2019, only seem the Georgiadis so far.
Then Jones this year who is tipped To go top 10.
So that's 7 in the last 3 years + Mead.

I love the way everyone shitcans Rockliff, Port's own included, I think he still has plenty to offer whereas most didn't think he'd get a guernsey in 2020.
He had 4 substandard games, we lost 2 of them, he averaged 23 disposals along with over 6 tackles per game, he may not be as nimble as he once was but he gets the ball, applies pressure and makes a contest. I'm more than happy to have someone with some balls running around out there and doesn't go missing for weeks on end.
If we lack anything while this window is still ajar it is another tall forward to take some pressure off of big Chuck, the poor prick never stood a chance half the time, especially in the prelim when he was a lone tall forward. Need to develop Ladhams for the role or someone alike, I'd even toy with the idea of getting Majak if we can get him cheap enough, if we don't fill that void this is going to be a wasted opportunity.

Disagree, I think Georgiades (191cm) will take Ebert's place (189cm) and his aerial ability, or at least desire to throw himself at aerial contests, out shines that of Ebert who whilst capable in the air isn't/wasn't the high flyer Georgiades appears to be.
Keep in mind we went to Dixon a lot and it worked, he wasn't AA and us prelim final hosts for no reason, it's only a small margin that could see us go one step further, we don't need to make wholesale changes.

I knew you wouldn't agree with me as you see more in Marshall than I do, his inclusion cost us in the prelim IMO. the only time Big Chuck looked dangerous was outside the arc and Richmond were fine with that as no one else was going to take a clunk in the F50 if he wasn't there.
Marshall averaged 6 disposals for the last 7 games, if his inclusion was for a negative role then I'd be questioning the thought process, or the fact he is picked as a lucky charm. He had the chance the shine, he should've kicked the first goal and then his confidence would've been booming, as would the team's, he wasn't in our best 22 and you can't take passengers in a knockout final against the for team of the past 4 years.
Just my 2 bobs worth.

Smart play. Spreads the salary cap load and we can now ignore any trade talk for good, he's been here since late 2012, so he's lived in Adelaide now for 8 years and with 6 years signed ahead of him he's clearly a Port Adelaide player for life.
A real sign of stability at the club that he doesn't see his future anywhere else.

For sure, but Treloar had already whored himself around and Collingwood have completely mismanaged their salary cap, what Wines and Port have done is the exact opposite. Wines has remained committed and loyal while Port have put one eye to the future to manage the cap space appropriately.
