From what I have seen this year, Jack Trengove just keeps getting better. I know that Scully has been hampered by injury, but I think his foot skills are certainly holding him back. Jack can win the ball, as well as having the extra skills, (and size) to back it up. Not saying that this will not change in the future, but I think that if I was sitting at the draft table right now, I would pick Jack.

Totally agree, when they are both playing, Jack just seems to me to have more of a presence on the field.
 

In the long term Trengove will be the better player. The only area Scully has him covered right now is his running capacity.

Scully does not have enough penetration in his kicking, and im not sure that will change, its just his kicking style


Trengove Vs Scully, can't wait for this to happen :( .

He's got 10kg to put on, which may decrease his running but up his kicking length. At the same time playing in a better team would help his accuracy but he'll never be an accurate kick.

I think overall Trenners will be the better all round, but we will marvel at Scully's endurance like we did for Roberts Harvey, and I think he will be elite inside like Harvey and only a decent kick.

I think If I could, I'd take both, to GWS, But I don't think 'Vlad', would allow that to Happen, so I won't try.

Don't want to bight the hand that feeds mine.

Oops, that was a post that should have gone on my GWS board instead,,, a misdirected forumpost. Sorry Sheeds, forgive me, I'm only a young fullback of the Century.

I'm not that experienced at this recruiting caper.

It didn't influence my vote, but I've actually admired JT's media appearances of late - even after the disappointment of the suspension. For a 19 year old, he was also very good on Before the Game Sat nite.


They are both brilliant footballers as you'd expect from pick 1&2. Still happy to have them over Martin but geeeesh I wish Martin only signed a 2 year contract so GWS were also trying hard after him.

I'd rather lose Scully.JT has a much more physical presence,is more versatile as he can play anywhere,takes a better grab and at this point is the superior kick (and signed for 3 years)

Scully has the better tank.

I think it's fair to say the Fyfe is having the best year of the 2009 draftees up to this point, with Martin not far behind. I can't split JT and Scully, both offer so much in different ways. We need to keep Scully.

He signed an initial three year contract instead of the regulation two-year contract that Scully signed.

He still comes out of contract next year.

Trengove. Both will be great players (in their own way), but Trengove strikes me as a better club man - and we need that.

In fact, if Scully does head north, he will have killed the great opportunity that was afforded to this club. We could've had Trengove and Martin (who's proven himself to be loyal), or Trengove and Rohan (or Melksham or any other top 10 pick from that draft).


Picked Scully as he will be a genuine superstar. His kicking doesn't concern me, as his handball more than makes up for it.

Trengove is going to be a great player, don't think he'll reach the heights that Scull will, but that's bloody high.

I think the poll would look a lot difference if Scull had played the entire season, especially after putting a bbit of ink on a piece of red and blue paper.

Trengove every day of the week, he has really endeared himself to the club and the supporters, Scuuly has not. Oh and on football ability alone, still Trenners.

both guns dont need to split them they are different types of players who will complement each other nicely...... hopefully.

i have #31 on the back of my jumper, but i voted for #9 in the poll

Trengove has obviously played alot more this year hes got alot to be exited about; Great marking, great kicking, all round class! Importantly he looks like he loves the club and the playing group

Scully offers us some different skills which are similarly as valuable.

I hope we get to keep them both, because they are both guns. its like trying to ask Carlton supporters whether they'd prefer Gibbs or Murphy :(

Lineball but Scully for me. Trengove is Cousins* to Scully's Judd. Trengove will be the great clubman and leader but love watching Scully grab the ball and accelerate away from the pack or dish out the impossible handball. And hands up if you don't think he will work on his kicking. Want to keep both please

*Without the character flaws


Scully

I always thought it was Scully but clearly I'm wrong

 

Trengove. This time last year I had slight concerns over Trengove's pace, I don't see it as a problem now.

Tough, keeps his feet, great handball, decent kick, brilliant over head and seems like a leader of men.

Scully will be very good, but right now fans and the media overrate him.

This is BS. Both have brownlow potential - but it's scully by a bit (star vs superstar type difference), scully can be THE best player in the league, trenners can be ONE of the best.

If there was no contract dispute and scully was pick no.2 rather than 1 I'm pretty sure most would have a different opinion.

In the end this is simply Ablett vs Bartell. I know some Geelong supporters in 2006 or 07 would have said Bartell but Jr was and is a better player.

Keep the faith and this is just a nice problem to have for the next decade

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
