Having fun, Tom?

Well here is a 2nd.

At least his GWS team hasn't been beaten by 186

They've only been in the comp 5 minutes. Get back to me when they've notched 150 years and we can compare worst, best, etc. but I'm tipping by then they'll have gone the way of University.

Wait 'til the snide remarks and jealous whispers about him starts in the changerooms from his teammates, if it hasn't already.

The whole thing has the potential to be hugely destabilizing through their playing list.

And don't forget about his old man - that situation could really [censored] players off (if he's still getting paid under the cap, of course).

The bulldogs got stiffed Ward is a gun, Scully legacy will forever be the highest paid biggest underachieving worst AFL player ever, the name T Scully will for ever be that of the player who took the money and run and this will last forever in Football circles, was it really worth it Tom?

Wow Scully collecting 39 possies against the bulldogs was lifetime ago.

Hate the bastard and as l knew all along he is the most overrated player in the history of the game...........good on ya Sheeds, you dropkick

Even the mighty Stan Alves and Mark Maclure would bang on about Tom after some of our 2010 wins. Unfortunately, Tom hasn't lived up to his expectations; fortunately for him, he has become a wealthy man at a young age.

He was too young to bluff his way through 2010, he is a footballer not a PR man. Still, his pantomine messed with our club and helped undo steadily improving performances. We have come out of the experience somewhat 'sullied' but have the afl's draft picks in our saddlebags, and have used the tom money wisely to secure a player who does live up to his reputation.

No doubt Tom Leaving hurt us not so much because we lost him but in terms of this year we haven't gained anything on the field for loosing him. There is no doubt come the end of the year we have the chance to rectify all of this and hopefully we can say thank god he left because we gained so much more. Gotta feel for the doggies though GWS and GC got a knife and gutted the doggies list. Thanks AFL ya knobs.

Interesting to watch the body language during their Freo game. Although being pummelled there was a lot of fight and spirit as a team by GWS. But starkly contrasted by Tom who appeared no different from his disinterested softish efforts in his final few games for us season. Something is already simmering there I believe.

Good. Have you expressed your thoughts on the GWS forum, when you were traded there ?

I was permanently banned from there, thats why I'm back.

PS. They are looking for good moderators if you are interested.

I'm loyal to Demonland. No amount of falafel will see me move.

I love the irony of this thread (and I'm not immune!), when many of us are banging on about how T Cloke should pull on a Melbourne jumper in return for bucketloads of cash.

If Scully had proven himself to be a gun then win us a flag and be one of the top players in his position and then was offered a million a year it wouldn't bother me as much as a bloke who had done nothing,produced nothing and most importantly won nothing and then skipped town for money he doesn't deserve and hasn't earned.

Just could not quite fit in there. I was on the nose when I insisted that Range Rovers were better than Skodas. And that their falafels were overpriced and not as tasty as those found in Broadmeadows. That was the final straw that broke the camels back.

Cloke was pivotal to Collingwood in their premiership year (and in their premiership defence - aware they didn't win but they got close)

He's been AA, he's been a B&F winner, he cost them bugger all at pick 39 under the F/S rule

If Scully had given us 7 years and helped us to a flag or two - I would've packed his bags and paid for his plane ticket

Nope, not getting over it.

Too boring for you? Don't reply please and I'll return the favour.

Get over it Jumbo!!

For heavens sake Scully did the correct thing moving to GWS. Who cares anymore?? You obviously loved him otherwise you wouldn't sulk so much. Scully is still a kid same as Trengove. He'll be good don't worry about that.

Stupid thread moaning over scully...get over it and move on

This is probably the most used expression/thought on this forum, right behind "don't like Scully threads? Don't open them!"

Not to mention he lied his ring hole off all year about it - that's what annoys me the most.

What annoys me is the thought he might have stayed

Imagine we were paying him $650 large for 5 years and he was playing like shyte

Can you imagine the threads that would be on here?

Nope, definitely dodged one very big bullet

Don't be annoyed Harcourt. He didn't lie either. Made of his mind at the end of the Season just as he said he would. He's a kid. Big Bucks on offer would of been mad to stay at Melbourne.

Not moaning. In a year where everything has gone wrong (has any club had a worse series of events without even mentioning the heavy injury list?), it gives some relief to many of us to put the boot into Scully and to think we may have dodged a bullet etc.

We enjoy talking about it in a year where there is little enjoyment.

And to those who endlessly post about our hypocrisy in throwing big bucks at Clarke or Cloake, the complaint is not that Scully went for $, it is the timing and manner of his doing so that irks.

We Scully haters consider ourselves a bit like the Simon Wisenthal Centre.

It may be a long time ago but we refuse to let it go.

If that is a politically incorrect comment then swap it for an old digger who survived Changhi and wont forgive the Japanese .

Either way ,the 31 jumper is tainted forever with disgrace .

    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

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
