Scully & Butcher

Featured Replies

 

It's from Sunday's Herald Sun on the SuperFooty website. A good read.

Sounds like from Day 1 he will slip into the best 22 of whoever drafts him and make an impact.

Hopefully it is us.

 

Nice article, stuff like this is what's going to make the next 4 months bearable. Bring on November!


I knew when I was in the under-14s and all my mates were out going to parties and drinking, but I was in the Stingrays and all I wanted to do was really make it there, so I just said then, 'I'm not going to do that stuff'."

wow drinking and partying @ 13 they start young in the Dandenong area

anyway Scully sounds like he is just what we need @ melbourne all the talk is we need forwards but once Watts Comes on in 2-3 years we will be ok in that area with Bate , Maric, Wona, Jurrah, Miller, Petterd to support. THe midfield is what worries me most at the moment no speed or class and this guys has both

He won All-Australian honours at the national under-18 carnival last year as a bottom age player, and recently showed his first-class fitness, blitzing a 3km time trial in 9min 27sec.

To put that into context, Chris Judd broke a Carlton record running 3.2km in 10:30 in December.

is this faster than bail?

that means to beat chriss judd, he has over a minute to run a further 200m.

that is not bad at all

That is getting a good start on it. lol

If we go the way we are, we may end up with one and two in the draft.

Yeah i grew up in Broady and u 14's is about right.

I agree with you 100% about our midfield. We are screaming out for a classy player who can run all day, win clearances etc.


Ive played against scully and his what we need, hes quick and has great acceleration and he just to contest to contest so quickly with or midfeild struggling for speed we should get him if given the chance.

We are in need of a genuine A grade midfielder. Scully sounds like he's ready made. As much as this season is going to hurt, it seems it will be well worth the pain.

Add him and Butcher. All of a sudden our prospective side looks very very good.

Watched this kid as a junior, he played in the same league as my brother. He was nigh on unstoppable then and he's only gotten better. His skills were always brilliant, combined with the running he's added to his game over the past couple of years, he will be a star. We need to do whatever it takes to get this kid to the club. Not saying he's the answer to all our problems, but definately a few of them.

it would be great to get a talented midfielder that we wont have to worry about having an alcohol problem like sylvia to waste away their talents!


I've seen Scully a few times and he looks great - smooth and makes the right decisions. He'd be plug and play.

And without exageration, he'd already be in our best side. You'd be looking at a Rich/Palmer scenario.

Here are Tom's stats after the first 2 rounds of the year in TAC cup.

ROUND 1

Sat 4 Apr: Tom Scully :

Kicks: 23 - (15 effective)

Handballs: 12- (11 effective)

Tackles: 8

No goals

ROUND 2

Sat 11 Apr

Kicks: 10 - (8 effective)

Handballs: 20- (17 effective)

Tackles: 5

No goals

Let me know if you want any other stats on other players.

Cool He sounds like another Chris Judd type. Great, these are the players we need before Demetrio's Psycho love child GC17 gets to rape & pillage the Draft.

We are the last club to prosper from victoria for the next 10 years. Maybe i can bare the humiliation of this Cold & Bitter year after all.

I still want to win a few games this year, we must to keep the kids & sponsors interested. A fine balancing act.

I'd love you to spell his name right considering he'll be playing for us next year.

Thanks Digga!!!

Not bad at all.

Anyone know how Butcher has been going?


what club is Butcher from in the TAC cup?

stats for key forwards, i dont mind taking scully first as long as we have pick two aswell, it was only 4-5 years ago Neitz was getting doubled teamed. Blease and Strauss should help our midfield out when playing

those in the know say hes a great player but how many inside players do you need,

 

After 2 Rounds:

Luke Mcdonald (Eastern Ranges)

Goals: 13

Kicks : 23

Handballs: 7

Dont have stats for contested marks :(

Named in the best both weeks.

those in the know say hes a great player but how many inside players do you need,

I know it's easy because you're a Melbourne supporter but don't always equate 'inside' with being slow.

We don't have an elite midfielder and we desperately need a few. Scully would be right at the top of our wishlist.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
