Surely people are sick of hearing about Tom Scully and his contract. I can tell you he's signed nothing him and his family are sick of what is continually written regarding his contract especially when he indicated to the press in front of the camera that he will sign at years end. He said he would love to stay a demon loved the boys ect.

It's really embarrassing that it continually gets brought up. There is not much more he can say. Why should he? We cleared room in the salary cap (Cameron Bruce) for this EXACT reason. Also we have extra room in the cap as in recent years (last 2years only) have started paying the full 100% before this we were paying 92.5% All this hysteria is just helping his price grow. get a grip and have faith both in the club and the 20 year old kid thats a lot smarter then a bunch of you...

 

What else are we going to talk about?

Do you know Tom and his family?

Until a definative comment is made from Tom himself either way, or a contract signed/produced i reckon it's time all TS threads are immediately locked down and banned.

You should live in China. No one is asking you to read them or respond to them.

In repect to him and his family I think he's correct. What will continual threads do but harm the situation? We are making his managers job very easy atm with all the fear mongering. He has stated what he intends to do. At SEASONS end he will sign a contract!! Someone should put it on YouTube and replay it everytime they want they want that answer. He's not signing till the end of the year get over it and stop giving him reasons to leave... $&@! me

Don't be silly, many of the posters here seem to like torturing themselves over the Scully topic, just don't read the threads f you dont like the topic is the answer.

Deleting or banning the threads isn't the answer.

I can vote for both Yes and No...*cheeky evil laugh*

 

Personally I hate it as well. But its a MFC forum, we should all be able to talk about anything related to the Melbourne Football Club. Tom Scullys contract included.

But in saying this we dont need 20 threads, one should suffice and anything related to Tom Scullys contract talks should be put in there.

Good luck mods.

Thats my two cents.

Even if it's harming the situation...? For the betterment of the club they should be. Especially if he hasn't stated any different to his only press confrence.. He's not going to say any different. Think about it if you were trying to get a pay rise and knew you were in high demand..?


Sick of reading new threads about the Tom Scully situation, so I might start a new one about the Tom Scully situation.

Man up, don't read the threads if you don't like them.

I know his uncle very well & he just laughs and shakes his head every time GWS is mentioned.

His manager read him to be strong enough to deal with the speculation about GWS, to hold on until the TV rights & CBA were understood before commiting!

This way all parties understand the landscape and can negotiate a fair deal.

He is on a standard 2 year contract which is mandatory (Same as Dustin Martin & all other top 10 picks) in 2010 2011, hence the hysteria to sign has been created by the media & forums such as this. John Ralph cannot help himself & is hell bent on him going to GWS.

Cannot wait for his article when Tom commits to the Dees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Haha.... I will SPELL it out for everyone if you can't read between the lines..... It's not looking good if we continually question what he has stated!!! He will sign a contract and the end of the year. No earlier no later.

Thats enough from me.

I also just wanted to see if people like hearing the constant dribble.

Including banning this thread????


I'll test out this banning of Scully threads by closing this one.

  • 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.

    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.
