Tom Scully

fantastic work ethic, repeated second and third efforts, lightening handball, hits the packs at speed, both sided player, and enormous appetite from the contest.

i saw that in a 3 minute video. incredibly exciting.

 

Also featuring in this clip are Melbourne superstars Jack Watts and Jack Trengove. Very nice! :D

Star in the making. That goal at the end... NICE!

fantastic!!! luv it!!!

I think it's fair to say Judd has copied Scully with the head bandage!

i'm sure judd watches his tapes for moves...

this guy #1 fo sho'

 

His ability to keep his arms free and still hit a target when getting tackled is awesome! You can not teach that very well.

Lighting hands....dear god they were quick.

He reminded me of Paul Kelly from the swans with the way he runs and the way his shoulders seem to hunch up over his neck when playing.


He looks to be one on those players thats hits the footy at full speed, not many players can do this around stoppages one C Judd is the best at it. It makes the player look extremely fast even if the aren't.

Don't get me wrong, I have a man crush on Tom, and seeing him in that Melbourne jumper was almost too much ;)

I did notice though that he seemed to lose his footing a fair bit, especially early on in that package. I will blame it on slippery surfaces!!! Still going to be great having him run around for us next year.

Did anyone else notice only once or twice where he defeated a current AFL player named D Rich? Poor little Bam Bam looked flat footed against him!

This is the recession we had to have ;)

That sums up the last 2 years perfectly.!!! :lol:


he reportedly ran a 16 beep test at the AIS earlier this year

:o

That is insane. He must have a high a very high Vo2 max.

I have a problem............. who the hell is going to be my fav player is it possible that the MFC could be the most exciting team in the modern era will the young kids of today finally start telling there mum and dad collingwood, carlton, essendon supporters they want a red and blue jumper......

GO DEE's


He broke Jarrod McVeighs record of 15.6 and Matthew Kreuzer's VIS 15.4

Heard on sen he got 15.8 and then they stopped him, i think they got the picture. Predicted to break 16 at this years draft camp, pity he is not there.

Needs to work on his ball drop...

;)

 

Scully's awareness is great, if he can translate that kind of play to the AFL, he'll win a brownlow for sure.

:lol:

Some of those handballs when he looked gone for all money are absolutely incredible.

I know we've all been through these, but...

1:24 - Had the whole ground thinking "how did he end up with that in space?", 1:59 - He wouldn't have moved that on any quicker, flatter, more directly had he kicked it 2:44 - thread the needle... But can't pick which one's better out of: 2:30 - How the HELL did he know he was there?! Whoever received it must have been a good communicator... and the one at 2:56 - gone for all money, taken too much time to make a decision, gets slung, halfway to the ground not only does he deliver to a target, but to the target's advantage running into fifty.

Oh and that goal that started with him getting tackled on the wing... I think he actually had to slow down a lot to make sure he didn't go inside fifty too early. His team-mates had all clean possessions after he dished it off, and he STILL comfortably beat the footy forward.

I never realised it before, but my goodness he's quick. It's odd that it's passed me by, since I've spent more time watching his highlights than typing on here... ;)

It's not just that he's quick, it's that he's USEFULLY quick. His first 5 metres seem (among footage of kids, obviously) to be even sharper than Davey.

He's like the complete opposite of Bell. Bell has an attractively shaped kick, no vision or awareness, is remarkably quick given enough of a run up, built like a mack truck, doesn't handball too well... Whereas Scully's kick shape isn't considered a strength, has UNBELIEVABLE vision (not only does he know where to put it, he seems to predict where guys are going to place themselves), is at full pace within a couple of steps, is skinny, and his handball is already probably the best I've seen, besides maybe Black's. And that's a BIG maybe.

Does anyone else get a Boomer Harvey vibe from him? Only better obviously.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
