Scully Hypothetical

Okay boys, have a geez at this one for size.

The year 2017 has just completed. The demons have just notched their second premiership in three years. Tom $cully is sick and tired of being beaten pillar to post for the rabble GWS, being belted by over 100 points 67 times since they entered the league. His performances alone have been exceptional, winning 5 best and fairests, a clear outlier for their team. He expresses interest at coming back to Victoria, and nominates Melbourne and Richmond as the teams he is interested in.

After the hurt he has delivered to our club, would many of you consider opening our arms to accept the callous player to aid our tilt for our third premiership? Or do we allow him to walk to the dirty Tigers, our only real contenders?

(Just a bit of fun in the off-season I thought) ;) ;)

 

2nd Premiership? I'd still be drunk, but I'd take him back on contract that lasts the rest of his career, and play him in the 2's every week.

LOL'd. Love the angst B)

 

only if he tells the media that he has an open mind about the idea, and signs a stat. dec. that he wants to be known as a "two-club, two _ - _ - _ player.

No chance,money is more important to him than team success.

I'm tipping by round 10 next year,he's missed 3 games with his dodgy knee and hasn't had more than 15 disposals in any match due to a heavy tag each game and they've copped 4 100 point floggings and his room mates drink too much and the Mike Sheahan headline is:

6 Million dollar man under extreme pressure.

 

Having only won 10 games in 6 years, $cully will have turned to the drink, publicly embarressed himself on numerous occasions and earned the title Fev Jnr. Not the type of player the 2017 Premier Demons are looking for.

Not-a-fcuk

he would be worth considering if his knee is still usable....BUT this time the contract would have to be on our terms.

Remember Revenge is best served cold. I do not blame Tom at all...This was an AFL decision.

If Tom had knocked it back they would have offered him $7 million....He was a marked man.

I know people will hate him for it, but i actually feel sorry for him....he is going to get a heavy Tag every week in a young midfield

None bigger than whenever he plays the MFC.

Play him all season, then leave him out of the Grand Final....... :lol:


Well no one else is going to say it's a ripsnorter of a hypothetical..

$ully has cashed in his chance at success in football and will forever be known as the guy who left his club after 2 years to chase money and not premierships. It's the AFL's fault, but I'll still hold a grudge.

For the record that's a big NO times 6 million!

I honestly thought we'd seen the last of Sully threads. Can we move past the kid now or what?

I'd bring him back to the team with the promise of multiple flags, only to play him for three years at Casey.

Lie to him, just like he did to us.

By 2017 Scully has experienced life in football's wasteland and failure at GWS which for three years is an embarrassing basket case for the AFL and the football community until it is finally killed off after only five wins (three against Gold Coast, one against Port Adelaide and the other against Collingwood who crash disastrously immediately after losing assistant coach Mark Neeld) and is replaced by the Tasmanian Devils who take him on a substantially reduced contract.

Scully, who is hampered by a degenerative knee condition and distracted by a lengthy court battle to recover vast amounts of unpaid debts from the GWS receivers, spends the next three years rotating from convalescence to rehab to the odd game with the Devils' VFL team where he befriends team mate Brendan Fevola, turns to drinking and gambling, puts on massive amounts of weight and ends up resembling his father (or Peter Griffin, take your pick) in stature, build and personality.

By 2017, the down and out Scully is given his opportunity by the multiple premiership winning Demons who are magnanimous in refusing to hold a grudge about their former player. He is offered and accepts a contract from the club as assistant doorman beating disgraced former AFL CEO Andrew Demetriou for the job.

And they live happily ever after.

2nd Premiership? I'd still be drunk, but I'd take him back on contract that lasts the rest of his career, and play him in the 2's every week.

Pure gold.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
