It's Essendon, cheating is in their DNA. They'll find a way to siphon money to him outside their cap. Just like their mysterious "legal settlements" to all the WADA convicted players who remained at the club. Payments which were never disclosed nor factored into the salary cap. Amazing that. 

[censored] cheats.

I don't see what all the fuss is about with Shiel, he's an average midfielder. Oliver, Viney & Brayshaw are all better than him and Harmes and Petracca could easily surpass him also.

Last season he averaged just over 24 touches a game at under 70% disposal efficiency. He was elite only in inside 50s, everything else he is average or below average.

Won't be the difference between a flag or no flag at the Bombers.

i'm sticking with my 'too small, too selfish, prone to turn it over' rating

(seeing as we were never in the conversation to get him; if we were, i'd adore him)

Agree with this. Maybe not too small, but definitely a turnover merchant.

Slight upgrade from Devon Smith, good player but not a gun IMO.

must say I have not rated them but with Daniher back they should challenge for the 8 but no more

Wasn’t even in the best 3 mids at the giants. 

Kelly, coniglio and ward all ahead of him and in my opinion a fully fit Scully is as well.

If they don’t win a final at a minimum their 2019 year is a failure 

GWS salary dump and they'll get less than he's worth. Salary dumps recently made legitimate by the AFL, must've known something was happening 


Even before this year, we'd won a final more recently than the Bombers.

Not too upset about Shiel. Turnover merchant and has a selfish attitude bred into him at that "team of champions" the Giants. 

Shiel is a jet you guys are kidding yourselves.Very good get by the Bombers. They will give the eight a shake next season.

So good that the Hawks missed on him. Sucked in poos and wees you’re on the steady decline.

Nobody takes a $1.8million dollar pay-cut willingly.

Nobody ever.

I smell a pack of rats.

Now the radio is saying that the Dylan Sheil trade to Essescum may not happen (as GWS are demanding two first round draft picks)!

But Scully for a 3rd rounder is fair.

Scully might be lucky to play consistent minutes again so his worth is diminished. Who knows how banged up his ankle is and if he will ever reach his peak form again. Shiel is worth a first and second rounder I'd say, good luck to the Giants in trying to swindle the Dons.

Would not put it past the AFL to be dropping confected B.S to spice up tonight's live t.v extravaganza.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
