In slightly unrelated news, the other player we lost during last year's trade period (Matthew Warnock) has been nominated for the AFL's MVP award (every club has to nominate their three best players): http://www.aflpa.com.au/news/post/afl_players_announce_2012_mvp_nominees

Having not seen too many GC or GWS games, I'm probably in no position to comment. But it looks as though Warnock has been of more value to the Suns than Scully has been to the Giants.

he came about 15o something in the herald sun super player points thing. Still wearing Melbourne jumper as mark of respect.

"Tom's fourth placing was the result of an anomaly caused as a result of the use of a system of weighting the judges' votes," said Giants' CEO David Matthews after the count.

He also refused to confirm or deny that the club's assistant director of recruiting based in Melbourne, Mr. Phil Scully was on the judging panel or that he devised the weighting system itself.

Heavy stuff indeed!

Do they really have to insist on typing GIANTS in capitals every time in this story? Dont tell me they do it all throughout their website (no I'm not going to look) as some kind of ironical branding. UGH.

Was obviously part of the signing. 'Must finish in the top 4 at the B& F

Their lack of credibility just got even bigger...

Pretty much every article I've read involving GWS and Gold Coast have had their moniker's spelt in capitals... no idea why and it's absolutely annoying to read.

Interesting to see the SC player ratings across the league. Grimes is our best at 41.

It's bollocks, he was useless this year, they are only trying to justify how much there paying him, they know he's a dud but don't want to admit it.

Curious how Scully beat Giles? Giles has had an excellent year for a one out rookie ruckman.

Though looking at the 6-10 positions, they all had crap years so I would could only argue about one place; we are talking about the bottom team here.

In light of Scully's stellar performance at his new club, I propose that the AFL retroactively compensate Melbourne by awarding them an additional first round pick. I'm sure you'll agree this is more than fair.

WARD WINS INAUGURAL SHEEDY MEDAL

What a joke!

I can think if about a dozen players that had a better year than him.

Callan Ward has been very good all year in a crap team. He was a shoo in

When one considers that only 5 players played more games than him then it's feasible.

On a stats average he rated 11th, but it's subjective. And the following doesn't rate efficiency, hurt factor, etc. He's a fail.

An epic one at this stage.

MFC have dodged a bullet with the 2 PPs. Very lucky.

Not if you're a Bulldogs supporter..........Callan Ward won!

Poor Bullies!

Ward is elite already!

Scully isn't Wards bootlace, we got great compo in comparison to the Bullies.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
