Scully done over?

I must have been looking the other way, but near the start of the game did a couple of Collin*@%#d players get stuck into young Tom?

I remember him kneeling on the ground as if he'd been roughed up and then coming off the ground for a time.

Remember last year Jack Watts was given "the treatment" at the beginning of the game as well!

 

He was poked in the eye early on, so I'm assuming his reaction was the result of that incident.

Its an adult game and i'd expect when the dees become a better side to do the same thing to others.

We need to harden up and realise once anyone crosses the white line they are a target. I think we are learning to protect them better however

News Flash - Top draft pick put under physical pressure by opposition. Lets move on....

I have no problem at all with a player being put under a bit of pressure and I wish we were better at it!

I was just asking what happened! Let us move on then...

I believe it may have even been from friendly fire via a Joel MacDonald swinging hand

 

Scully and Trengove were both put under intense physical pressure as you would expect. It's all part of the learning process and both will be the better for it.


I poke in the eye can't make you drop three chest marks can it? Harsh, Yes but expect number one picks to take at least two out of three.

I remember Jack Watts being in possession and being tackled. I don't remember him being the 'victim of bullying' or whatever garbage people like you seem to want to remember

He was targeted bigtime and i wonder if it had an influence in him dropping those chest marks.

His attack on the footy however is first rate and ability to get to the right position phenomenal. You can't teach that.

Due to his size though, i think he'll be pushed around until he baulks up.

Very happy with him.

Yes it can as an unfocused/blurred eye would effect depth thus make it difficult to read the flight of the ball

  • 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.
