The MFC Facebook page reads: "Tune into the Footy Show tonight to hear the latest from Draft picks 1 & 2 Tom Scully and Jack Trengove live on Ch 9, from 9:30pm."

Not sure if that means they are on, or just news. Just in case anyone wants to sit through the rest of the crap to find out.

They're probably confirming that Scully and Trengove will play Round 1.

Hope they don't get the boys drunk on the set.

Nathan Jones tweeted they'll both be appearing. Hopefully someone posts here when they're on - can't really stand to watch the show generally.

hmm can't wait for a bunch of slimy questions/comments directed at them about how they feel having to play for the loser club and tanking etc

Col Sylvia to appear also. Could be interesting!!

Please tell me Scully won't be manning up on Brown or Hall anytime soon!

Just saw the senile old fool sheedy try talk up GWS say what you like about Bailey but thank the lord we didn't get sheedy

Must have been pretty daunting for those 5 kids. How nervous were they! Spoke pretty well though our boys

Oh dear, poor Sculls. Cue the screaming.

Scared me a little that Jack said about the club being a great place to start his career... maybe he was just like a bunny in headlights on the show. But he kind of gave me the impression that he'll be gone in a few years.

Did anyone else get this feeling?

Not at all!

Yeah, most definitely.

I think it was a carefully orchestrated move by Trengove to make his intentions known to the football world, before he even plays his first AFL game.

Nah. He wouldn't have signed for three if he felt that way.

Very good point

Hell yes!!

I was even nervous when I was watching it, felt awkward.

If we rise up the ladder Jack Trengove will not leave Early-Simple.

yep players stay with successful teams as a general rule..

Why would a kid who's never played a game talk about anything other than starting his career?? He's hardly going to skip forward to which club he plans to retire from.

I don't get the impression from Trengove he is that arrogant he is already planning his exit out of the place!

He hasn't even played a senior game of AFL yet!

He was nervous, and if anything, is probably sick of being paraded around as the face of the club.

He has signed for 3 years, and his best mate is at the club for 3 years too...........when we start winning games, he won't be going anywhere.

What was the actual interview about?

What was the actual interview about?

It wasn't a real interview as such as they intorduced five draftees(Lucas, Melksham, Cunnington, Trengrove and Scully) with Gary having about a 30 second chat with each of them. Nothing intresting said and no information on the new draftees, just the stock standard I am fitting i really well and the club and all the boys are treating me well

First time I have fully watched a footy show for about three years and I don't think I am missing much to be honest, Sam Newman has to go for me to watch.

For what its worth, i thought the footy show was entertaining last night. each to their own.

Scully was great last night, obviously nervous, but him standing inbetween Browny and Hall was great fun.

This is a little paranoid..

Jack's just a kid, and to me it look like he was just happy to get through the interview, without making himself look like a tool. It would be a huge call on his part, to proclaim AFL stardom before his first game.

I don't think there was any personal agenda in what he said.

Last night's Footy Show was one of the best in the past couple of years IMO.

No coincidence that Billy Brownless was nowhere to be seen, and Shane Crawford had a reduced role.
