Tom Scully wants to be a GWS Giant for the term of his footballing life

:lol:

"I know my future's here and I anticipate I'll be here for the rest of my career."

March 5th:

He also said he loved the idea of being a one-club player, which he anticipated would be the case.

"I love the club, I love my teammates and I want to be part of the future going ahead at the Melbourne Football Club," he said.

He's not a very good boy is he?

    Maybe he's just had an update on his knee condition?

    I believed it the first time he said it - but I am not stupid enough to fall for that "one club player" crap a second time.

    Tom - better to say nothing and have people think you are liar and money grabber, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt

    Playing as the big name in that debacle of a club should ensure 6 years seems like life....especially on one leg.

    When I read the thread title I thought it was referring to Phil, then thought 'he won't have a problem there.'

    After his dad got the $200K on top of Toms $6million, my view changed to believe GWS added his dad into the mix to get him over the line.

    Which I interpret as they really had to throw everything at him in the end. I then lost a lot of my blind fury believing it was a real struggle for him.

    Or maybe Im losing my edge....thats possible too.

    Guess we'll have to take Tom at his word...

    guess we won't - once bitten twice shy

    I think he was truthful in that the MFC will be the only football club he plays for throughout his career as GWS doesn't constitute a Club, but a manufactured money wasting franchise that will never encompass the traditions and soul of a Football Club.

    or maybe he means his knee is @#%$ed and he will never play for gws?

    Things have really gone a bit quiet since the conclusion of trade week. All he's really said in this article is that hopefully he gets to play for GWS for a long time. It's not really newsworthy and he's hardly going to come out and say "I'll be here playing with these stooges until someone offers me and my old man more money". Not many people will be digging up his quotes six years later when he signs with another club.

    I look forward to not reading about him on Demonland in the near future, and only having to think about him when I boo him at the G once a year.

    Too late Tom, you can't be a Giant for life, you've already been a Demon!

    haha...tom is making cash for comment now! what a joke

    "the last five moves have been difficult so I think I will be a Wellington Whopper for life"

  • Quote

    If the mugs keep shelling out $1m a year, why not?

    On the other hand, if the Wellington Whoppers offer him $3.5m a year in 2017 then why not fly across the Tasman just to have a look around?

    The Launceston Lyrebirds will be worth a look at too.

    To be fair, it was actually: Scully said: "I know my future's here and I anticipate I'll be here for the rest of my career."

    You can blame the journo for the "Giant for life" comment.

    • 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.
