“It’s not even worth discussing.
“Ollie loves it there, he’s captain, loves the group and loves Kenny … and Port love him.
“It was obviously a difficult year with injury but he’s really excited by next year and really keen to bounce back and lead the boys next year.”
He’s gone then

I've heard Walker, Jenkins, B.Crouch and Adelaide 1st rounder from Carlton for Wines, Motlop and Port's pick 84. Good source too.

Wines and Cunnington reasonable?
I'd rather have Cunnington for sure but yeah Wines has youth in his side. I thought Wines was impressive early on but maybe hasn't kicked on like he should have, or at least like I thought he would have. Maybe making him captain probably hasn't helped. It's not just a Geelong thing, I've been very impressed by Boak this season now that Kenny has put him where he should be. I really do see Wines as a Ling type (not necessarily a tagger), but you shot me down a bit for suggesting it.
Disp 24 v 21
I50 3.8 v 3
Dis eff 64 v 64
Tackles 5 v 4.5
Bit less required of Hopper with the other guns around him perhaps?
I for one rate Wines highly bar his odd brain fade foot skills here & there. You can build a good midfield around him. Port must keep him IMO, you would get rid of SPP before him obviously.
If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.
