"Don't go to the snow, come see Scully" - Sheedy

Recommended Posts

Hoping we belt them.

Also hoping Scully is completely wiped out, even if it's unfairly and our player cops a suspension for it. I want him, and anyone else, to know that if you walk out on us, we will hurt you, and make sure you're never right again.

Do you really like your own post?

I gave it a 'like' too just so it doesn't look too strange.

I really can't stand this mob....

With what they did to us last year re Scully, and now look like shafting us again , by forcing us to take Viney with a high draft pick.

If I was Melbourne president I'd make a phone call to them , just to say, look you really hurt us last year,all we ask is if you could refrain from this viney nomination as a sign of respect, otherwise it's gloves off, and we will stop at nothing to bring pain to you at every opportunity.

We need to start the process on Sunday. No mercy. Let Sheedy play his infantile games while we get on with winning games of football.

Really?

Maybe they could return our Tonka Truck and crayons too.

Win. That's enough. Maybe an errant elbow to dog's head.

Maybe they draft tamper and bid without intention to draft? Don't expect Vlad to intervene. Kieren Jack anyone?

Are people reading a little more into this comment than is actually there? I think that comment is just Jon Ralph rehashing the comments made a couple of months ago where it was mooted that the GWS would make Melb pay the "correct" price for Viney by nominating him, thus making us pay pick 3. It's not a confirmation that it actually is happening I don't believe IMO

I don't think there's too much ambiguity about the words 'GWS has promised to bid for Demons father-son candidate Jack Viney should it finish below Melbourne'.

They've either promised or they haven't. If they haven't then that would be an appalling piece of journalism from John Ralph and I would be disgusted if I was GWS.

methinks the MCG is looking a bit worse for wear.

A bit of "blood and bone" is in order.

Cool. Then we can jump the fence and see it ourselves.

MFC has announced that 'Kick on the G' is back after Sundays game.

Didn't GWS only have 7000 to their last last home game , and that was mostly Richmond supporters.

Maybe the GWS fans were out at some sort of falafel convention?

They measure the crowds by weight in Western Sydney so 3,500 of the crowd were Phil Scully.

The best way to hurt GWS is to WIN, no dog acts on $cully behind the ball that will lead to blokes being suspended. Then launch a raid on the club when players come out of contract.

Great opportunity for either no.4 or no.10 to iron out no. 9 & get posters on here off their backs for a few weeks.

Best revenge would be a win this week and a raid on their talented homesick kids in 18 months time. Doubt it will cost $1m per season to lure some away from tumbleweed stadium.

Edit: Beat me to it Philthy!.

I might be wrong, but I thought Gubby Allan said a couple of months ago that Viney would be looked at like all players and that it was actually other clubs trying to lobby GWS and GC to bid for him to ensure that Melbourne doesn't get him for a second round pick. The comment above isn't attributed to Sheedy saying it with the rest of the stuff about Scully and Snow etc... it just looks like filler to get his word count up. The "promise" is pretty safe, I wouldn't think of it any different than 'election promises' in politics. Doubt that GWS will be disgusted, but having that trash out there doesn't hurt them at this stage, and if someone comes back and says "Jon Ralph said you promised", it wouldn't be hard to discredit it, unless he can rely on having an actual quote there to back it up.

I wouldn't put it past Ralph to sensationalise in this fashion, to be honest 90% of AFL journalism is appalling in the quality, effort and research they seem to put in. It's barely discernable from tabloid journalism most days.

Am I the only one around here who doesn't want to see Voldemort ironed out on Sunday?

I mean it would be far more satisfying for me to see someone like Jordie McKenzie tag him so closely that he barely gets a touch.

I agree WJ I want a 20 goal win

With Scully having 5 possesions.

Firstly, Scully has been playing a defensive role himself and secondly, I wouldn't want him thinking he warrants that sort of attention in what has so far been an underwhelming career.

Of course Jack, but if he just happens to ....... wink nod say no more

Crowd of 7000 last weekend.

They won't survive.

Fev pulled 5000+ to a Southern Tasmanian Football game by himself, (Aker did a similar thing with Glenorchy in the State league last year, as did Robbo for Devonport or Burnie) but these players singularly pull similar crowds to suburban games down here in Tassie. Just goes to show that the positioning is more about TV market than who turns up at the game itself.

But it's not a good look to see 7k against one of the larger Melbourne clubs... especially one that is actually performing pretty well at the moment.

They will survive SMF

The AFL will keep pouring money and draft selections in for as long as it takes.

That might take 20 years but they will survive.

Tag their tagger? Why? Let him get it, 40% efficiency doesn't scare me, probably less than that running around looking over his shoulder.

I'd like to see him stretchered off in the 3rd, want to enjoy a few ironic cheers as he butchers the ball first.

And in all serious, I'd hate for us to give away idiotic frees at the start of the game to help them get a good start.

Definitely want him ironed out. I want him physically harmed. He needs to know that walking out on this club has ramifications that he will feel for the rest of his football career. He made his choice, now he should deal with the consequences. We need to have a big win, and we need to flatten Scully as a statement. If we don't do both those, I will be disappointed in the club.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
