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!

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
