Scully and his mates

Featured Replies

Can we please have another semantical argument about what Tom did and didn't say?

 

In regards to Tom being annoyed at the lack of professionalism at MFC, I hardly blame him.

I don't care how many clearances or contested possessions he gets, when the vice captain goes out and gets smashed on a Sunday after a game, it reeks of a lack of professionalism, no matter how it's spun.

As rpfc mentioned, Scully would have entered the AFL excited by the prospect of working with other professionals who do the utmost to extract the best from theirselves.

Obviously this is not the case at MFC right now.

Over time Scully will realise that's the way it is, even at the next level, except for in extreme circumstances.

Didn't Judd have similar concerns about the team culture during his time at West Coast? Still managed to help steer them to a premiership with a browlow along the way.

 

hey everybody my host family told me something was up here and i thought id better get on and set you strait with some FACTS

i know these forums are on the web talking about the demons and that includes me lol and we are told to ignore the internet but doesnt stop us using twitter and we do read the forums so you better watch what you say lol

i try not to read them myself but my host family did tell me about this one and you guys really should pull your heads in and stop panicing because nothing had been agreed to yet

no i have not been approched by gws no i have not agreed to anything with mfc. were waiting for the season to finish so we can see what deal the players assoscation can get and also form i am in and get a better deal. dont want to be negotating a contract in the vfl lol. if i am then we will talk before seeason end otherwise will wait. everything is in the hands of al my manager yes he does talk with gws all the managers do but he has told me not to say anything anyway i cant talk to gws before this season if over but cant say why yet .... .all in good time be patiant

anyway gws will be a good club you only have to look at suns wow something big happening there. richmond boys are cool too wouldnt mind going there but cant see it happening would have to be drafted. but for now 100% comitted to mfc so again dont panic your all panicing for nothing

and by the way no one takes the internet as serious as you guys.putting these things on the internet doesnt change anything you will not talk me into signing with anyone or any club. the decison is als really and he doesnt read any forums.

also dont post anything more about me as al dont like it and he doesnt want the price to come down you know what i mean lol

oh yeah dont forget huge game queens bday see you there we want a massive demons turn out GO DEMONS


The whole GWS-signs-Scully-and-trades-him-to-Richmond is poppycock. They can't actually do that with a player on an AFL list, only with players who aren't listed who they're picking up. Tendai Mzungu is the example - Gold Coast grabbed him and traded him to Freo as a non-AFL level player, but GC couldn't do the same with, say, Ablett or Bock.

The question should be, why are you following them around on twitter :) they are footballers...not the messiah.

Maybe Scully dones't like twitter etc and told the boys not to mention him as he likes his privacy. Just cause some people like to share crao about their lives, not everyone does!

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
