I take my hat off to you.

I haven't seen a player glide across the ground like he does.

He is fast, tough, courageous smart and uses the ball well.

If I was GWS I would be offering him $1 million a year, not Scully. Great effort after a long time on the sidelines, well done.

EDIT: Massive typo.

    Wish he didn't get injured

    Very very important player.

    Needs to work on his disposal, but just so strong and so quick. We missed him.

    He stuffed one kick early but overall I thought he used the ball well. He is very good by hand, where Scully has good hands in close, Bail has a penetrating sweeping hand pass that can break a game open.

    One of my favourites because he's fast and hard. Great to have him back.

    Yeah, a seriously good player who adds pace and hardness. His first kick was a shocker but his contested ball was great as was his speed.

    Really missed him this season. Ability to use the ball and cut a swathe through a pack....brilliant.

    Gazelle like. reminds me of a past winger .:)

    If you were picking your best 22 for Melbourne he would be one of your first 10 picks.

    Great to see him finish off the year in the seniors

    Bail actually kicks a lot like Judd and Pendlebury - ie: looks good over 20-35m when kicking low, but nothing special over longer distances.

    He is an excellent advertisement for good players can come from outside the first round of the national draft. Whilst he has only played a handfull of games, he shows remarkable promise and many of the qualities we demand from our players. Very glad to see him back today, unfortunately much too late in the year for anyone's liking.

    Gun.

    AA potential if he gets his body right.

    The two players that we missed most when it mattered:

    Jack Grimes

    Rohan Bail

    Both Hard.

    Both Quick.

    Both break the lines.

    (And when they don't try to take the eye of the needle option) they both deliver reasonably well.

    Big Fan-we certainly look better with him in .

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
