Did many players shake his hand after the game or be friendly with him??? I missed it.

Yeah they did. Most shook his hand, a couple had a chat like Blease and Garland. Classier way to go about it once the siren goes.

Agree with above, but it was nice Junior was applauded for a couple of good things he did.

$cully will be good but can't help but think that if we really nail these compo picks (?!) we've dodged a bullet paying this guy anywhere near $1m a year. I just don't understand why GWS would pay him that much. Better them than us though for sure.

I have no doubt that he was approached by GWS people before he was even drafted. He was the standout 18 year old in his draft year, and he was always headed for GWS as soon as his first contract was up regardless of what he did in his time at Melbourne.

Tom Scully will be lying in bed sleepless tonight thinking

-I disgraced myself by acting like such a dodgy p-ick, and the footy world knows all about it

-I am nowhere near as good as the money I am earning, and with every s-it game I play, the media wolves are going to start feasting on me

-This mob is going to get regularly spanked for years to come. I will probably retire without playing a final.

If only Scully had received some of the physical treatment that ended up coming Junior's way - such as a Moloney forearm to the throat!

That really [censored] me off. I was also glad they gave him a free when Davey pushed him in the back.

He is a champ and the reception he got from our supporters today speaks volumes. Scully will be lucky to get that reception from his own supporters, let alone opposition supporters.

I was thinking this a couple of months back. He's been thinking this for a while now. Although for $1M a year, he seems the type that wouldn't give a stuff either!

More of a reflection of himself than anything. Im so bloody happy he's gone, soooo happy!

Yep, totally agree. He's terrific and deserves complete respect.

Loved the roar when Watts pinpointed the pass to Trenners who nailed the captains goal

Said it all for me, Tom who? Will doubtless turn out to be a good player, but will never reach level to justify the Gary Ablett coin he is on. Good luck to you Giants, may you forever struggle to hold your emerging talent with his bloated salary on your books

The guy sitting in front of me (who seemed to have no affilation to either team) interrupted my booing by turning around and asking

"Would Jim Stynes boo Tom Scully?" Couldn't come up with a witty response in 5 seconds.

I always seem to sit with weirdos.

I dunno. I think a mattress filled with $100 bills does a lot to make you sleep well at night.

Well, apparently Jimmy's autobiography that is due out in a couple of months deals with his disappointment with the way Scully behaved, so although Jimmy didn't actually boo, he did have his say. I am not bothered about the fact that Scully left, more power to him for getting paid far more money than he is worth, but I find the way he left dishonourable and shameful. I always wondered why GWS went after Scully with such a vengeance, but then didn't Sheedy get knocked back for a coaching gig at Melbourne? Considering the catty spiteful way he has been behaving this week, it seems perhaps there was a personal score to settle which interfered with better judgement...

I have come home hoarse from booing. Two young girls in front of me kept blocking thier ears each time I booed I was so loud. I enjoyed every boo, let me tell you. By the end of the game my wife was giving me "the look" because my booing was getting under her skin.

However, by half way through the last quarter Scully became irrelevant to me enjoying the rest of the game. I have purged my soul and Scully is now in the past. He may become a really good footballer in the next few years but he has made a monumental blunder in choosing GWS. But from here on, what happens to him has no importance to me whatsoever.

R.I.P. - any further interest in Scully, father or son.

My brother recently jumped on the Dee's bandwagon he isn't really in to footy but he is a signed up and paid for Redleg member so god on him but he did ask me today at the game which player was Scully before the bounce so I pointed him out and he said to me after the game he would have thought a 6 Million dollar player would be a Buddy,Judd or Ablett and he said all Scully is good for is a couple of handballs. After playing footy for 20 years and watching the Dee's for about the same time my Brother who basically knows bugger all said it best.

PS. When I played I only used to shake the hand of my opponent for the majority of the day - its got ridiculous all the handshakes these days.

As for Tom, how do you feel now you slime bag?!

Bleasey and Scully had a nice chat - they're very close friends. A few others came over and shook his hand, but they didn't linger.

A thread about Sully who left our club for a deal of a life time & when our footy dpt was in a mess!

Carrying about booing & how they booed... really cmon!

I also was very angry when I left but understood why, remember we are not the only club that lost a star/potential

Lets face it we beat an u19 team, lets not forget we are 1-10,

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
