Scully's management to talk to Melbourne this week

Melbourne is going to be a champion team again soon, with out without Scully. Let's just keep positive and wait for the end of the year when the kid might have a better idea of what he wants to do. For now, he is a Demon, and he needs (and deserves) the club, including the supporters, to fully support him.

    jack viney was a huge signing for melb last year...if he was able to resist GWS...why shouldn't scully do the same? the only real argument for him to leave is money...can't see other reasons?!?!?! if he doesn't like melb then how does he know he'll like GWS? serious...he is staying!

    Jack Viney never had the option of going to GWS you damn fool!

    Somebody find the facepalm image, preferably the double facepalm.

    ABSOLUTELY on the money there Samsara-We can only live in the moment, and right Tom Scully is a DEMON.

    The top 5 things that Tom Scully will announce at the MFC press conference:

    1. Football is not really what he thought it would be, and he is considering a future as a truck driver instead.

    2. He is engaged. (Possibly Lara Bingle, or the Stkilda school girl)

    3. He is gay.

    4. He lied about his age and is still actually only 12 years old.

    5. Feel free to add as I cant think of another....

    He can't find his left sock (he seems the sort of guy that might have them sorted that way). It's white with a black stripe.

    1. He has signed a generous 4-year deal, feels very fortunate to be at such a wonderful and proud club, and is looking forward to tearing it apart this season with his mates in the red and blue.

    They might be looking for a new keeper after the ordinary display in the cup final this week. :)

    comment from the HS

    Velocity Sports has previously stated that Scully's contract negotiations with the Demons would be deferred to seasons end so that Scully could "direct all his energies to the 2011 season". Velocity Sports also indicated that finalisation of the AFL's new TV rights was a consideration. Surely if those issues are relevant to Scully's future, they are also relevant to Gysberts'future and the futures of other AFL players in their stable. There is a strange odour in the fact that Velocity Sports are having ongoing negotiations about Gysberts'contract but are deferring discussions with Melbourne over Scully's future. Either Gysberts' welfare (and that of other AFL players in the VS stable) aren't as important as Scully's, or Velocity Sports are telling a few porkies about where things are at between Scully and GWS.

    You are not wrong, that was apalling. But i don't think Arsenne was really giving it 100%

    Good Luck to Birmingham, The Pubs would have Rocked out all week!!

    I guess there is merit here, and it is this sort of thinking that still makes one think he might leave. At the end of the day, Scully has much more bargaining power than Gysberts, and this management group might see signing Gysberts ASAP as a big positive whilst waiting is the best option for Scully, considering his position.

    Is there a triple facepalm photo..?

    In fact, the only practical way for GWS to steal Viney from them, was to finish last in 2012 and take him as top draft pick.

    Maybe read an article before linking to it..?

    Mate.... bottom line is money talks and that's all there is to it. He'll get to play his beloved football nonetheless and perhaps make history in helping GWS achieve their first EVER premiership!

    HOWEVER...

    - ALL his family are in Melbourne.

    - He'll never get the same crowds (the Dees' numbers are building!).

    - Victoria is the home of AFL!

    - The best stadium in the world will no longer be his HOME GROUND.

    It's either "GWS $$" or "the value of what the MFC could soon become".

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
