Urged on by Jason Dunstall, Alistair Lynch (Tom Scully manager) said Scully is doing absolutely fantastically (implying he has veryhigh value), and said "I'm sure he will sign a contract at the end of the year" to which Jason Dunstall said "which means he is going to GWS". Lynch just smiled.

Draw your own conclusions....

Which to me said "he ain't going anywhere"

Still a MFC player if and when I hear any different I'll worry then.

Can't spend your life as a supporter jumping at shadows perpetuated

By an opposition president.

When Scully gets back on the track I will be most interested to see whether he has modified his 'floating chip' kicking action which our forwards will never get on the end of. If he was at a club like collingwood they would hammer that out of him over a couple of summers.

Lynch is his manager so his number 1 responsibility is NOT to give away if Scully has or hasn't signed with GWS.

Let's assume Lynch knows Scully WILL DEFINITELY sign with GWS, and he was confronted with the statment 'which means he is going to GWS'. If it was me, I would 100% go on the front foot and be defensive and answer the question by saying 'nothing will be known till end of the year'. The fact he didn't have a defensive answer to that statement means he doesn't feel the need to.

To me it says absolutely nothing.

There is no indication either way.

What a waste of the Internet...

Agreed. I opened this thinking it was going to be something substantial.

Maybe we should make a sub forum for all Scully - GWS threads.

Really????

Other than a confirmation he has signed with someone what was your thought before you opened this?

Garbage thread.

It was posted after his manager discussed the situation, fair enough I would've thought otherwise why bother responding????

Garbage response as better to say nothing RR. Geez...

I agree that the Scully situation should be confined to one thread. But others within this thread with their high horse moral ground come straight to the Scully thread, seemingly so that can shout loud it means nothing.

Why?

Do you all think shouting loud enough will change anything?

Are you just wanting to make your case so you can say "I told you so" to people you don't even know?

It's worth a discussion especially after his manager brings it up. Don't bloody open the thread then.

This topic will go on until a contract is signed, get used to it or ignore it.

Until your outrage when he is in the V Line jumper!

Wow. Crappy thread, sure, but the title is really the hum dinger here... It has no correlation whatsoever to the OP...

Is this what demonland's come to?

Aaah. Leave it up here as a cautionary tale.

I watched it and the only inference I gleaned, albeit a small one, was that he'd stay with Melbourne. He spoke of the CBA and that he was sure he'd sign at the end of the year, which is when Dunstall made his quip about GWS and all Lynch could do at Dunstall's throw away line was smile.

You read it one way and me the other.

The title say 'Alistair Lynch on Tom Scully'

I was expecting more than 'Tom will sign a contract at the end of the year'

I expected a decent paragraph of info from Lynch's point of view. Maybe some inside information.

Why could this have not been added onto the end of one of the other Scully threads?

This thread is a complete load of trash. We will know one way or the other whenever he signs and know then with whom. Guys, please let's leave this alone. It is surly getting us all down.

That is how I read it, despite no indication either way.

As an aside, the opening poster suggested "draw your own conclusions" - some of the replies to date have seriously lacked topic related substance - if anything...nothing - and were deleted as such. It is something of interest to Melbourne supporters (despite some posters being fed up with the topic) regarding a Foxtel programme AFL insiders , and comments from an associate of Velocity Sports (Alastair Lynch) - Tom Scully's management company, those who don't like it shouldn't have to comment.

I agree with this - even your use of the word "whom" was correct in this instance.

Thats what I thought too, and god I hope you're right.

How many possies has he racked up this year? How many best on grounds?

Last time I checked he was 3-4 weeks off.

If anything, his value is idle until he can get back on the field to play good footy.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
