dazzledavey36 56,399 Posted September 25, 2014 Posted September 25, 2014 I love Scully, thanks to him Hogan and Clark came to Melbourne. Sure Clark will leave but we'll get more than Scully for him at a fraction of the cost. I love how ordinary he is though Yeah Clark has played 15 games in 3 years and set to leave while Hogan played about 5 minutes in 2014. Hardly anything to be excited for.
Qwerty30 196 Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Yeah Clark has played 15 games in 3 years and set to leave while Hogan played about 5 minutes in 2014. Hardly anything to be excited for. Notwithstanding the disappointing outcome with Clark, his recruitment was an absolute coup for the Club that has struggled to attractive marque talent. And if you can't realise the opportunity that Hogan could provide this Club then you should consider the hole we would have been in with a grossly overpaid and underperforming Tom Scully.
Jesse Christ 2,884 Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 What was the deal with Barry? What did he cost us? Surely there were others a little more developed available- he still looks a couple of years off it!

ChaserJ 5,192 Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 From Barrett's regular Friday contribution on AFL.com: If: Then: Tom Scully wasn't on a million bucks a year... ...the Giants would be able to properly get involved in the Paddy Ryder bidding. He is, and they aren't able to.

He is, and they aren't able to. They could apply to the AFL for special draft assistance because exceptional circumstances apply and they would have a fair chance of convincing Professor Mark Evans that they have a case. After all, they're a franchise club and lack experienced players plus its unfair, MABO, the constitution and the vibe are all in their favour.

I agree One Eye the way they were duped by Melbourne was so unfair. As seen on TV
Elusive Tunbridge 795 Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Had Scully stayed, Neeld might have made him co-captain ... and we'd be playing tomorrow.

Surely there were others a little more developed available- he still looks a couple of years off it! He was steak knives in the Hogan deal, and pretty poor quality ones at that. Would have been worth a late pick in the draft 4th or 5th round.
Macca 17,129 Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Roos rubber stamped a 2 year extension for Dom Barry back in July of this year The best judges of 1st and 2nd year draftees are the coaching staff. Us supporters are in no real position to judge because we often just don't see enough of these draftees to be able to make a decent judgement. I'm happy to go with the Roos judgement on Barry
