The playing group should not accept this. It is not just one game next season that they will need to make a stand, it is seasons to come. He did the best thing for himself, which in turn, has hurt the Melbourne Football Club, MY football club. The current playing group MUST draw this "line" in the sand.

While the sky is still well above us, and will be in the same spot tomorrow, this is a very dark day for the Melbourne Football Club. We need to get Ross Lyon or Mick Malthouse, otherwise I strongly believe we will hit rock bottom for the next decade.

When he plays Melbourne next year we should all throw monopoly money at him.

Seriously though, the way that he's handled this has been extremely poor, to notify the club while he was in Sydney is absolutely disgraceful. Look at how Davis and ward did it in comparison, those two players took the money but they did it was integrity and grace. They looked their club in the eye and did it the hard way. Scully though scampered up to Sydney and made the announcement up there.

Weak as [censored].

Okay. I need to know something... Do we get 5 years to use our draft picks??? Cause obviously we are going to lose our first round pick for Jack Viney next year and it's regarded as a strong draft. Where as this year is regarded as a weak draft.

Someone please help

6 Million over 5 years and 2 Million up front.

Would any of you knock back 2 million dollars going into your bank account?

He knew when he pulled out of the last game V Port,he'd played his last game at the G,and avoided all the last game with the boys stuff in Adelaide.

Small 20 year old with a baulky knee that can't kick. I think we dodged a bullet

At last! Some reality.

Well said UC>

Losing a Trengove or a Watts is my idea of disaster. Not this contrived crap from the AFL/GWS/SCully camp.

Bring on Ross Lyon

It was obvious months ago that Scully would be gone

Who can blame the kid if you got offered that much money wouldnt you?

However as a Melbourne supporter I am extremely disappointed still in a number of aspects

The speculation about Scully throughout the season was damaging .

The amount of money Scully is to get is absurd !

The AFL is responsible for this in more ways then one

My last comment is held for how we obtained Scully and what we as supporters endured in the hope of landing him . Just goes to show that it doesnt pay.

The Melbourne Football Club must put this all behind them now. Land a Better than just Good Coach.

The Players must learn about Pride in their club and never say die . Even if you are getting thrashed the next coach must install in them that Pride.

It is a Marvelous tool and all I can say is maybe just maybe if Scully had had pride in his club he would never have gone. But he has so now we must deal with it and the MFC needs to stand up to the AFL

and obtain the best deal they can for our club out of this sorry Saga

How many membership renewals are being sent back to the club today?

Not mine.

The club showed good sense in not upping the ante any more.

If he had stayed it would have only been for the money - not the club.

Lets put our focus back on the current players and getting a coach who can take us to a flag(s)

Scully gone yep taken the cash, who can blame him really...

It is now time for MFC to make a stand for ONCE!!! In regards to the compensation imagine if it was collingwood who lost a number 1 draft pick after 2 yrs, the up roar. MFC Stand up and be counted, show some fight, show some leadership, stop being constantly walked over and putting up with second best!

    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

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
