To the max. Could be one of those rumoured life threatening cases

That's what spending too long at Ology does to a person.

No, it should be obvious to us all. If he hasn't signed by round one, he's already decided to leave. The GC experience should have taught us all how it will go.

Speaking of round one can it hurry up and get here already?

I didn't believe I was.

There is just a different 'median' outlook between the two sites.

Some say it is a myth.

I don't think so.

Just my opinion.

Im new here but i am guessing that when you start your opinion with "it is obvious" when it really isnt obvious then ridicule is gonna happen

Give it a rest - it's obvious that the post was my opinion, like every one of yours on this thread. You guys are just looking to cause trouble like half the demons fans on these forums. Try to reply to posts without the toolishness.

Find a hobby or something.

And I gave my opinion on your opinion.

Sunrise, sunset.

I was glib, though. And sometimes we don't need to be.

It's that obvious is it ? If he hasn't signed by round one ? Pull the other one and it plays jingle bells.

Just my opinion!! Calm down (in advance).

Oh, well....that gets you off the hook then.... :rolleyes:

And opinions have to stand up to scrutiny.

If your opinion is that you will be nervous that Scully has not signed before the end of next year then you wont get an argument from me.

So here is my hobby - looking up words in the dictionary. When you said it is obvious that Scully has decided to leave if he has not signed by round one i looked up the word obviously and came up with

—Synonyms

1. plain, manifest, clear, palpable, unmistakable

I think it is not plain, manifest, clear, palpable or unmistakable that Scully has decided to leave if he hasnt signed by round one.

I would suggest it is more obvious that his manager thinks he will get a better deal at seasons end rather than beginning of the season. There is more evidence of players not signing contracts that are lapsing until seasons end to get a better deal than there are players that not signing contracts because they have made up their minds to leave.

Jack Watts ? Nathan Jones .....

You most certainly do to some around here.

Scully won't sign because he's single minded in his focus on getting the absolute best out of himself and his career. Money will be part of that equation but not the be all and end all. He'll wait until Melbourne offer him the kind of money he knows he can earn. It'll then be up to the club to determine if he's worth it. I've got a hunch they think he is! Remember we've got plenty to offer, we're not the basket case we were 3 years ago and he's in a great position to see that.

And got plenty to take his place if too greedy.

I was under the impression he is one-in-a-generational talent...

I know we want to posture in case he leaves but let's not kid ourselves - it would be a massive blow.

Nasher is the one who is proficient in propheticness.

A semi private convo we had a while ago where Nasher predicted much of what's going on in here.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
