New Scully/ Trengove highlights videos

Featured Replies

 

The biggest problem with these two is I can't decide which kid I like more.

Love these 2.

Even more impressive is that Scully's best attributes aren't even displayed in the video. It's his workrate and ability to get to so many contests and accumulate so many possessions. Also, it's his handballing from conjested situations that sets him so much apart from everybody else.

One thing about Scully. When he kicks mid-range to a target, his kicking is very good. However I really don't rate it when he bangs it long. His kicks get way too much height on them and not much penetration. Does anyone agree with that?

 

I think some of Trengove's most impressive play, especially in stoppages, is shown in the James Craig footage on the Draft Machine.

I agree. That 40m pass coming out of the backline at 2:45 was incredible.

He won't be kicking it a lot anyway, he's our extractor.

Very good videos, by the way.

Agreed. Far too many of his kicks were to contests or to an opponent's advantage. I've only seen limited footage, so I can't really judge but I don't think I've seen a long pass hit a teammate cleanly in any of his highlight packages. Could be the factor that costs him the no. 1 spot.

Trengove's footage is interesting. While his kicking looks much better as far as style goes, he didn't hit too many targets himself in that package. However the technique looks loads better. I think his footage showed him more to advantage because it showed his strengths in fast running play while Scully's didn't show us enough of his stoppage work, so perhaps not fair to compare the two on these packages.

Whichever one is taken first, we look like getting some really good talent.

I'm excited with Scully... i foresee him being a much more talented, faster and skilled version of Daniel Cross (who i rate extremely highly).

I always thought Crossy could have been a top10 in the afl kind of player if he could kick the footy, n had sharper pace. Now I'll only have to look at Scully.

Scully's in and under work and handpassing will be renowned as being the best in the afl in 2-3 years i reckon.

I'd be getting Strauss to help him out with his long distance kicking when we get him down to the MFC.

Based on that footage, the long kicks (or most of the long kicks) appeared not to hit the targets. However, is it entirely his kicks the reason why they didn't hit the targets ?

From what I have seen of him in other footage and live, I don't hold any concerns about penetration. Does Brent Harvey have penetration in his kicks ?

I agree with your other points about Scully's attributes.

On Trengove....he does look like a smooth Aston Martin.

Like everyone, I'm not really sure which one I love the most - kinda like picking your favourite offspring!

I hope I'm not being biased, but I seriously think Scully has the closest football brain to Chris Judd that I have seen. His ability/awareness to be able to play on after a mark/free kick, and even to be able to judge what tackles he can break is very similar to Judd. What will he be like playing in the AFL where it's quicker and the bodies are bigger? Well, he shows all the signs he will be able to handle it straight away. Obviously he wont win the Brownlow next year, but I could seriously see him playing 16+ games in his first season, then the sky's the limit after that.

Not sure I can really compare Trengove to any current/recent players. Hird maybe, just in the way that it doesn't matter where he is on the field, he attracts the ball and does uses it well.

One thing I hope happens - If Tom Scully wants to keep his number 29, can the MFC pleeeeeeease organise for Dean Chiron to do the official handing down of the jumper? I don't think anyone as worn it as good since!

Counting chickens before they have hatched?

I am sure one Micheal 'Juice' Newton maybe disappointed that you are giving his jumper away while he is still wearing it :lol:

No. You're not the only one. This has been broughtup a number of times around the traps.

I think you might be guilty though of wanting TOO much from your pick #1. They can't all be perfect, and if playing the percentages and kicking long to a contest when there's nothing else on is his biggest fault, then he's doing pretty well. I reckon Scully might end up making his mark a long way from our attacking fifty anyway. And when spotting up a target coming out of defence, suddenly his kick seems faultless.

A very small concern, and one that could be fixed/minimalised by making different choices.

My only other concern with both these kids is how different playing in the AFL will be. Scully breaks a lot of tackles in the league's we've seen him in, but it's going to be a while before he's big enough to break the tackles of AFL players. (and an NRL player)

Dont think they can just give players numbers away but i reckon he could up grade to No.31????

Certainly some good numbers to choose from, 5, 9, 31

Did Shaun Smith wear No.29 ?


Did Shaun Smith wear No.29 ?

Gee, you guys in here are far too serious. I was taking the pi$$ out of Dean Chiron. Although, had I remembered that Newton wears 29, I would have asked him to pass it down. I guess that's what happens when you only play for Casey!!!

  • 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

    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.
