I had my first pre-season soccer training session last night. At the soccer club I was widely ridiculed at the start of last year for saying I would rather lose Tom Scully to GW$ than Jack Watts. Since then my steadfast defense of Jack Watts as a future superstar has become something of a running joke at the club. The boys love nothing better than winding me up about Jack.

Anyway, one of the boys at the club was involved in running the Cadbury super team promotion in blacktown last week, where 20 AFL stars ran a clinic for youngsters. Jack Watts was up there, as was Tom Scully. My mate is an avid North Melbourne fan and said he went there expecting Jack Watts to be a tool, but said Jack was an absolute ripping bloke and readily interacted with all the staff organizing the event. Tom on the other hand was aloof and barely spoke to any of the staff and came across as an arrogant nob, kept to himself and didnt really even interact much with the other players up there.

I suspect young voldermort has a touch of asperges syndrome, certainly reads as a good fit

I love the payout on Tom. Makes me laugh. I'm not going to "get over it", nor do I want to. I'm going to nurture my bitter feelings toward our former player for at least his footy carreer. I'd advise if you are "over it" you'd best stay clear of threads like this one...

Exactly, this is sport and it's based on emotion - there's no need to let logic and reason interfere.

What I don't understand is, why are those whio are sick and 'over it" of these T$ discussions still keep punishing themselves by constantly viewing and then posting comments? If they are true to their words then they should not be be seen or heard on this topic.

Spot on Paul...Why should i forget significant incidents to do with the MFC?? I shall remember all his career and move forward at the same time.

Lies are lies, $6 million is a lot to pay someone who cannot be trusted....so let's all watch this one.

"It's called style dear...You wouldn't understand"....

And here I was thinking I was still in with the cool crowd at the ripe old age of 27, clearly Im mistaken.... Haha

On behalf of one R Flower I would have run through and over Dipper with the greatest of pleasure. Im only a bit over a 100 kg and i might have bounced a litle but that would have been a pleasure !! lol

As to the Scully thing.. it doesnt actually surprise me. I dont think hes quite got the ticker ( real ticker) hes made out to have .. Playing kiddie ball is vastly different to mano a mano .

That certainly wouldnt have impressed the Martian Man ..... he hates a squibber. A big black mark would have gone down next to T.S.

Kharma !!!

And now he is stuck with him, or rather each one stuck with the other.

I wonder if he was actually consulted by Vlad the powers that run GWS prior to the dirty deal? If not they sound more dysfunctional than the HSU.

stop embarrassing yourselves guys by paying out Tom Scully. Seriously, stop trying to make yourselves feel better. He was a gun at Melbourne, and will be one of the best players in the AFL for the remaining 10 or so years of his playing career. It's no fluke that he was targeted specifically by GWS and offered him the most money in the AFL. no fluke.

Lets get over the loss and use the 2 inadequate "compensation" picks at next draft and hope to God that one of them is half as good as Tom Scully.

He was ordinary at melbourne. He might have or he may become a top player, but he wasn't with us. Pushed over off the ball like a ballerina in a typhoon.

Roadkill possum on his head

Close! Maybe a Skunk hat.

I hear Tom's taken to the West of Sydleigh, and in his down time, heads to the hills where he's learning Music & furthering his media studies.

Here's some of his best work at hand, a little ditty he knocked up whilst whittlin' & fashioning his best hair...

"Gee, I don't feel any different after that lobotomy"

Great one. Was the lobotomy part of his rehab?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
