I believe Mr Burgundy was refering to the money saved by not overpaying Scully would have allowed us to pitch for Clark By memory we are paying close to 100% of our cap this year so it would be unlikely that we could afford both.

I think we actually sit at around the minimum 92% but are paying 100% by way of bringing forward payments.

So we may have been able to afford both...though I am not sure we would have wanted to.

    Getting Mitch Clark had nothing to do with Scully leaving. We still have the compo picks we got for him and would still have had the money for both of them.

    We pay near 100% of the cap by frontloading contracts, so when Schwab says we are paying 90% in real terms it doesn't mean we can just go out and spend big on someone like Clark.

    We used the salary destined for HWFUA on Clark and we wouldn't have him if HWFUA stuck around.

    Probably doing it because we already named JT.

    I'd love to see JT not shake his hand Rd13

    My wife is expecting in May - better tie her legs together...

    Cheers Warren, I did look it up and buggered up! Best part is it was reported this morning he's not going to be captain and Filthy Phil Davis is going to be a joint captain with Ward and Power.

    Giants name their 3 Co Captains.. guess who wasnt one of them !!!

    even this lot knows you cant have a Squib as a captain !!

    He's now on the same level as Setanta O'Hailpin, what a fantastic achievement. Let's hope he does something that pisses the Irishman off.

    The Irishman tells the HUN today that $cully is as good as Ju$$.

    Tom Scully just like Chris Judd, says Setanta O'hAilpin

    Let's hope not.

    Wow, 3 captains and Scully couldn't get a gig, does anyone actually know why?

    I wonder if he is regretting his decision already.

    He probably demanded a pay rise for the extra responsibility and they refused.

    Because he is not a leader's a$$hole?!

    $cully is still getting paid more than all 3 Captains combined so i doubt he would give a $hit. Remember, he doesn't like cameras.

    Maybe the offer was - Captaincy or .........................we give your Dad a 6 year job for doing nothing ( 680k ) , your sister a lifetime supply of fake tanning cream and all the free haicuts you like at "Blind man Bob's barber's"

    • 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.
