Tom Scully

Featured Replies

My god.

Last time I looked at a Scully thread before this afternoon, the closed thread was only at 28 pages in length.

I've now (god knows why) read all of it.

It began hilarious, but by the end I was left depressed... by the stupidity of some of our supporters.

I think I've now reached the point where I don't even care!

I just want the season to end so we can conclusively find out the result.

 

Stepping away from the contract situation for a minute...

How bad is his haircut? Would have to be the worst in the league at present.

Since when have Richmond been in the running to get Scully?

Can someone please inform me why they would stand a chance? We could offer him more salary wise?

I know he was a supporter, but that means jack! Pendles, Judd and Buddy were avid Melbourne supporters, but I see them at other clubs?

Can someone inform me why we have turned away from GWS to Punt Road?

 

Received my $200 raffle ticket in the mail today. LJ and Skull are on it, surely the Dees wouldn't market this Player if they knew he was leaving. I'm a firm believer he will stay and am very disappointed with the amount of negativity directed towards him. He will be a part of our great team for years to come!

adds more pages to the thread???


essendon signed 6 today, including their best young kid heppell.. its not that hard tom, either you want to be here or you dont.. simple

The one Essendon player constantly linked with GWS is Michael Hurley who comes out of contract end of next year. Trust me thats the signature that Essendon really want.

There are 16 other teams that would move the earth to get his signature. Imagine Watts and Hurley in the same forward line, with Howe and Jurrah bobbing up around them... Be better then the buddyroughcyril

Tom scully to Richmond for Dustin Martin and everyone is happy

I'm not

By your logic it is obvious the Gary Ablett Jnr rates GC17 as a better prospect than Geelong. Can you see any flaws in your logic ?

Nutbean,

Well, no. Ablett did indeed go to GC17. As a 10 year player, with a Brownlow, two premierships, a fight with his previous coach, a sense of job-well-done at Geelong, and a golden chance at a superannuated juicy payday, he obviously did rate GC17 as a better prospect than Geelong.

On the other hand, Kreuzer & Scully, two gun players of similar pedigree and experience, have their whole careers in front of them. Kreuzer rates the West Sydney Ramraiders a worse prospect than Carlton. Will Scully rate Melbourne a worst prospect than the West Sydney Ramraiders (or one of the big Melbourne clubs)?


Again, Melbourne Bigger Clubs?

Why? Why has this new speculation started?

OK Judd and Buddy to Demons .Dunn and Bate to Carlton , D.martin to Demons for Morton.. Done .

More than reasnoable i would say Walter Dude!!

Have you seen Dustin Martin's haircut??

Jurrahs was nearly as bad as Danny Southern .


if/when he does eventually sign, whenever that glorious moment will be, who wants to join me for a quiet celebratory drink or '31' at crown?

i will be ecstatic if he signs, stick it up all the journalists who think he will leave

just a note also on the guys who were concerned with his expression during the singing of the song, tom isn't the kind of bloke who expresses himself that much after a win, he is so focused on footy he'd rather be doing his warm downs. He's a kid who hasn't touched a drop of alcohol or tobacco once in his life in order to pursue his goal, he loves the sport and I honestly can't see him betraying a club like Melbourne, he's not the kind of kid

Again, Melbourne Bigger Clubs?

Why? Why has this new speculation started?

Because we feel inadequate when compared to others.

Really wish we could just arrogantly sit back and say we will keep him.

Other clubs' supporters would.

We are going to be fracking relevant very soon, if Tom decides to stick around we will be absolutely fracking relevant.

As if. There were plenty of nervous nelles at Collingwood, Carlton, Essendon, etc.


Rpfc suffering from a bout of MFCSS himself..?

Haha couldn't resist.

Drinks will be served...absolutely...we must organize a night.

 

The "whisper" is that Scully not happy with direction of club.I am wondering exactly what about the 'direction' is being referred to. Is it about the coach, is it a rumour is it baseless. At the end of the day, supporting the Dees is a victory of faith. When I see what belief Jimmy Stynes has instilled into the club combined with our great playing list I have great confidence in our direction. We have other clubs seeking to mimic our debt demolition strategy: Footscray, Port Adelaide, Richmond, but can they emulate what we achieved? When Grimes, Tapscott, Jamar, Bail and Davey are fit, whose place do they take? That is the true picture of where we are at.

Ralph's been reading Demonland posts talking about singing the club song and orange powerade.

    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.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
