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.

    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.

    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.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
