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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
