Good to hear for Blues supporters. Another player chooses not to leave to shitty GWS. Surely there must be very little motivation to go for Tom...

Except for the trifling matter of that massive sack of cash they're waving at him.

True. And the more other stars sign, they more they can throw at young Tom.

Along with the Murphy signing, this is an interesting development in the GWS saga ...

Apparently this Coniglio kid from WA is a monty top 5 draft pick if he nominates this year, but he and his family don't want a bar of GWS.

They are seriously going to struggle to be competitive if they don't get some decent players up there.

Wow, can't really blame him though. Looks like there's a fair chance the joint is gonna be a basket case. Hope Tom takes it that this is no place for him if even an untried up and coming kid is willing to defer his draft nomination.

This type of scenario will help the MFC cause..when young guns publicly say they do not want to go to GWS...i like it.

Scully is as good as gone!!! If he hasn't signed by now, or indicated that he is going to, it's all done. Everyone else is re-signing with their clubs (i.e. Murphy, Bartel, Pendlebury). . Sad but reality I guess. .

He will miss some epic Queens Birthday confrontations!!!

Here is a song Tom & his management are listening to a lot this year....Sitting on the Fence...The Rolling Stones

Pendlebury signed a 1 year contract.

Hardly a great sign of commitment.

He said he hasn't signed, and I will back the club to convince him that the MFC is where you want to be.

Anyone find a quote or some sort of evidence in that article that Coniglio has even thought of a boycott?

I've looked and can't see any for the life of me.

Might as well just read another Scully to GWS article...

Anyone else feeling nervous that on the Footy Show tonight they are naming a player who probably wont be at there club next season.

Didn't even make the "news" section of the "footy" show. This whole HOA story has no legs.

Its ok Damo was talking about Lake not being at the bulldogs next year.

what people don't understand is that whoever goes to gws has already agreed/signed. we won't know until tom commits to the mfc.

That's rubbish.

Except Scully has publicly stated not he, his manager or his family have spoken with GWS let alone signed anything. That's good enough for me at this stage.

I don't think Tom is a liar.

Seems to me to be a very honest player and person.

Can we talk about his on field performances for a moment instead.

I am curious if others think that he and trenners are complimentary in their styles.

Trenners a hard ball winner with scully having the ability to make space and run (and run and run) a la Judd.

Thoughts?

They definitely compliment each other. You can throw Gysberts into this also.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
