Scully Hypothetical



Recommended Posts

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?

Guest Baaall....Yeeess!

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.

Pure gold.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
