Want to read a "funny" rumour?

Story doing the rounds about Tom Scully,the consensus number 1 pick.

He was brought up by his single mum and Carlton are now in the process of trying to prove that his biological father played 100+ games for them and that they can take him father/son.

All sounds crazy, but this is Carlton we are talking about.

 

I'm the Father.
 

Can't we bid pick one?

How many Midfielders do those Parasites want???? Uck i Hate those Carlton Pricks....Grrr

Lousy Stinking CHEATS...


No, I'm the father!

Good man. ;)

Can't we bid pick one?

yep !!! :lol::lol::lol:

that Blue lot are absolute filth...whether or not such nonsense is true.. screw them !!

Then Carlton have to take him with their next pick (no.12 or there abouts) or let him go into the draft


If true, I presume this means that Scully and his mum are Blues supporters.

Scully is a Richmond supporter and his father is actually God, so technically he is related to Jack Watts and Jack Grimes, and is coming to Melbourne under the illegitimate-brother rule ;)

I heard Tigers.

Just for the sake of this say that the rumour is true...

Carlton would get to bid for a father-son and then if say Melbourne offered a pick (ie 1)...(so say Melbournes first pick is 1 and Carltons is 10) Carlton then have the choice of taking him at 10 because that is their closest pick to the offered pick (so for Carlton, it's a gaurantee if they want him) or if they don't want to give up pick 10, then Melbourne would be forced to take him with pick 1.

With Tom Scully, if this came out to be true and he actually wanted to be a father-son pick, he is gauranteed to go to Carlton because they would take him with their first round pick reasistically

ie, with Ayce Cordy...Doggies wanted to apply for a father-son pick and the Saints said they would take him with their pick 13 so the doggies had to take him with their next highest pick which was pick 14...if they didnt want to do that, the saints would have had to take him...

we do know this is all doo-doo dont we !!

Sounds like a good laugh.

Wonder how much Visy would offer?


Any sort of source for this? I'd probably die if we lost Scully.

What are they going to do? Drag some ex player out and pay him some money to say he slept with Toms mum? It would be amusing if it wasn't that stupid.

No, I'm the father!

No, I'm Spartacus!

"Tom....trust your feelings, I am your father, you know it to be true"


They know we're... Cough.

LOL

Wait a second. How did Marc Murphy get out of the Brisbane F/S drafting? Did he turn it down on the grounds that Brisbane is too far away?

Could Scully do the same thing, despite the fact the club is down the road from us? Man, that'd be awesome. Brisbane would be patting us solidly on the back.

Murphy didn't want to move up to Brisbane.

The Lions tried to move heaven and earth to get him but it wasn't enough.

In the end it call comes down to the individual.

 

Maybe we can get Maury Povich to host the Draft this year.

Seriously, this is rubbish. If it turns out to be true, I will kill somebody.

Garry Lyon could have gone to Hawthorn under the Father-Son rule. But chose to go to the club he was zoned to instead. Good man.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
