Scully says that he'll be back round 6. I don't think so

Recommended Posts

It's my experience that when footy players are injured they are generally unhappy - especially when he is 19 and gets idiot supporters constantly questioning everything about him, and everything he does, as if it were some sign of his intentions.

Yep good.

Op, you think it may just be that he's injured and he wants to be playing?

Look at what our poor Tom has to put up with...

Can the kid do ANYTHING right these days, without people questioning his every move and action?? FFS.

The article I read today said Tom very close to returning, will probably start running this week and miss the next 2 games, then we have a bye, then round 6 he'd be a likely starter if all goes well. Thats good enough for me, until I hear different from the club.

Did you remember to check his fingers to see if there was any ink on them? Non MFC approved ink maybe?

If I was him I'd seriously consider leaving just so I didn't have to deal with some of the idiots that support this club.

Agree 100%

The kid has a serious injury.

From what I am told his injury is general not an easy one to fix.

Now before you jump done my neck I have no inside information on Tom's knee.

But I have a couple of friends who work in the Medical / Physio industry.

They all tell me the same thing " Tom could be out for a considerable period"

One of them suggests "forget him till July " He has had this problem before

and then he has to get back his fitness.

That could mean not much from Tom in 2011.

If this is half true any wonder Toms is less than bubbling over.

Lets just get off his back.

When he is fit again he will play.

There are other more pressing problems for the club at present.

Like how come the President sounds more like the coach than the coach does!

i didn't start the post cause he aint smilin. I started it because he answered the question without conviction and heart. That told me that even he doesn't know what to do.

I'll sit you down in public and get 500 people to ask you the same question and see how long you smile for....idiot

And yet again we see the descension into petty namecalling.

Isn't the internet awesome for abusing strangers? Especially ones that folow your own club and whose heart is in the right place. Love it.

Agree I cannot believe the things people are writing on this site at the moment. It is scary to think how people draw conclusions out of thin air...

Between people like wacko maco and good ole America de Cali...wow....

Yesterday while collecting my scarf and horns Tom Scully was at the membership stall. I asked him how long it would be before he's back and he said round 6 after the bye. Yes at first i was wrapped but he didn't say it with conviction and certainty. it seemed an average answer. I have a quiet suspicion that the club might not be letting the kid play because he hasn't signed on yet. He seemed unhappy and wasn't smiling.

It will good to have him in the team against West Coast, but I just want the club to make sure he has recovered completely. It appears he came back to early to play against Brisbane pre-season.

If you have a quiet suspicion, keep it that way (keep it quiet).

I would argue that people who question the integrity of individuals at our club such as Scully based on their perception of tone don't have their heart in the right place....

Can just see the headline. SCULLY HOUNDED OUT OF MELBOURNE BY IRATE FANS. MONEY HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

Complete tripe.

I remember speaking to Col Garland after he was forced to wear the moon boot for the second time, he didn't raise a smile either.

Of course Tom is unhappy, he can't perform that which he has trained his heart out for years to do.

You all act like these players are your best mates and you have to defend them at all costs. They arent and they dont read these boards trust me. They dont really care what supporters feel or say.

Not anyones mates...just simply taking what they have said on face value until proven otherwise....anything else read into is a total waste of energy and time. When he stays I wonder what people like America de Cali will do with their time then...

No, the internet is obviously awesome for badgering and blabbing about badgering 19 year olds about their future.

I guess it does pay to smile more.

Tom should probably work on his fake smile - try and keep the rumourmongers at bay.

Or he's just suffering through an injury, is fustrated and annoyed he is not currently playing.

And we're done here.

    Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level.

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.

    The son of former Demon Brownlow Medalist Shane, Taj added a further 16 games to his overall tally of games but a number were as substitute. He is slowly fitting into the team structure but without doing anything spectacular and needs to take further steps forward in 2025 for his career to progress.

    Bowey’s season was curtailed early when he sustained a shoulder injury that required surgery in the opening game against Sydney. As a consequence, he was never able to perform consistently or at anywhere near his previous levels.  Date of Birth: 12 September 2002 Height: 175cm Games MFC 2024: 14 Career Total: 61 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total: 6

    SLIP SLIDING AWAY by Meggs

    It was a sweaty, slippery night at Cazalys Stadium, a tough slog with low scoring and missed opportunities.  The Hokball Hawks hung on to win by a goal and sit second on the ladder, relegating the disappointed Demons to, almost certainly, finals spectators.   We had to win this match. When news broke of late withdrawals of talisman Kate Hore and key back Gaby Colvin, expectations plummeted, and Demon fans despaired.  The bad news was the signature song of 2024, a season that’s
