The Tom Scully Saga

[Tricky 341]

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...

True. It's not rpfc. Carry on.

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.

Hmmm. Two computers ... Two IP addresses?

Not necessarily, but it is one possibility of many.

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?)

[Tricky 341]

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

let's check his IP address to be sure

[rpfc 28,250]

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...

[Dinosaur Rover 197]

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.

[H_T 3,043]

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 :-)

Tom Scully - Good player or Great player?

Discuss.

[Tricky 341]

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

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.

Not sure at this stage. Do you think he will stay or do you think he will go?

Why and why not?

Love to hear all views and theories below ...

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.

[H_T 3,043]

Do we have to?

Yep.

Was he eating chips with sauce ?

[Tricky 341]

...

good work undertaken .

Good thread that one - kudos

Yep.

Was he eating chips with sauce ?

Certainly not, however the gentleman accompanying was drinking BEER!!!

WTF does it mean?

Surely this is against official TS policy??

[Tatu 416]

I'm finding it terribly covenient that this issue has sparked up again this week, when we just happen to be playing Eddiewood.

C'mon boy let's not get distracted! GO DEES!

Good player now, great player later.

[Bruce Almighty 0]

Very true, and I wonder what Bucks would rather have now........some extra coin, or a premiership medallion.

or 3 maybe 4 if he is there

[Bruce Almighty 0]

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.

agree

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.
