The Tom Scully Saga



Recommended Posts

The mods can tell you it isn't me (IP address).

Nice try, that's way too easy to spoof...but I'll take your word for it anyway.

My favourite was songwriting stewie... I have never watched FG but it was a classic take on the diatonic chord progression...

Oh cool, another 10 page Tom Scully thread.

Didn't he say that he wanted to hold off talks until the end of the season, and increase his value with good second year form?

That suggests he's trying to get more money out of Melbourne. I can't imagine GWS paying more than $800k a year for him, and he would be likely to get (at the moment) about $300k at Melbourne? Can easily push that up to $400k a year at Melbourne by playing great footy this year. Doubt GWS would do an increase like that. An offer of $800k early this year would turn into $850k, maybe. That's just my opinion, though.

My comments are pure poppycock?

I'm still waiting for you to make a contribution of value.

It's always just sarcastic or demeaning jibes, but never offering much of an opinion.

What's it like there on the sidelines? Afraid to get into the game?

Anyway, still can't remember who it was, but they've been people involved in AFL coaching, whose opinion I respect a hell of a lot more than yours.

It's something I've taken notice of, and in quite a lot of cases it has proven to be true.

Maybe you're taking it a bit literally...

you break me up Artie (or is it E25?) :blink:

Hmmm. Two computers ... Two IP addresses?

Not necessarily, but it is one possibility of many.

I've got work, home, and iphone and I am sure that the mods are comfortable with saying that they have never seen those three IPs under another name.

Just don't need to.

rpfc is doing the job of multiple posters anyway...

Is there any danger in the world that one day will pass without a new fawning, sycophantic thread pleading for Tom Scully to remain at the club?

Enough already!

Here here - together with the breathless announcements regarding Todd Viney's progress towards manhood

I took your word for it the first time... just stating fact.

Conversely, sometimes I suspect the volume of posting by some could only be explained by a team of posters.

No and No. I can categorically state that it is not rpfc. The poster has been warned accordingly within the guidelines of Demonland.

Now please, let's move back to the topic.

Surely Todd's reached puberty by now :-)

Do we have to?

Ok then... During the north melbourne game I was sitting in the players area - or rather where many of injured etc players and wags were sitting. Tom was sitting away from the group with an older gentleman (I suspect his father?) and was certainly "isolated" from the group.

Tom Scully - Good player or Great player?

Discuss.

Good player currently on the verge of an exciting time with a plethora of similar aged players and a club of second-to-none supporters who love their club with so much passion for what their club is embarking on....the pursuit of a flag and greatness for the red & blue. One who may well one day be a 'great player' in a great football team. A team that will ply it's trade so well on the greatest football ground in Australia.

One that will follow in the footsteps of the good work undertaken 'til now.

The media just edge their bets with this type of rubbish.

1st they will say he is going to create hype

2nd they will say he has signed a HOA

then if he goes they will say i told you so and if you stays they will say well he signed a HOA and changed his mind.

Its ridiculous.

If Tom has signed a HOA all means is that his management have locked in the terms with them - it does not at mean that he wanted to go in the first as they will clearly wait for other offers to be tabled with the intention of all along staying at the demons.

Personally i do think he would of signed anything and we should trust the kids word.

How is Chewy, Wheels ?

You may remember my dog with the ultra long tongue - Hannabal ? She died last year. Anyone ever had a 15 year old family dog put to sleep at your home while she lay on your lap ?

I've not been the same.

16 year old border collie 2 weeks ago.

In the space of 3 months last year I had my best mate randomly fall and fatally crack his skull, my 14yr old cat go down in 1 day, and my father suffer complications from heart valve surgery to the point where he was almost lost three times. I've alot more grey now, and feel your pain.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
