Tom Scully left because he wanted a career. He'd have ended up on the scrap heap with the rest of them had he stayed.

I'd have him back in a heartbeat.

    I wouldn't take Scully back and I doubt he breaks into our midfield. He is a shocking kick. Good on Scully for cashing out at the Giants because he didn't achieve much there. Maximised his career earnings and has probably got the most out of himself, even though he has achieved little. He just wasn't very good in the first place. He has sh*t skills and no poise. He is always rushed. We dodged a bullet.

    Injury free and under Clarko I reckon Scully will be an absolute weapon. For that reason alone I want him just so he doesn't end up at the Hawks! And for a pick in the 40s?????

    seems too good to be true...

    is it the ankle issue?

    If not us you would think there would be at least 4 or five other clubs very interested.

    This is rubbish, he was out all of this year injured but was all Aust squad the 2 years before that. He's a very good player and would complement our mid field perfectly

    Tom Scully deserted our club when apparently he told Jimmy he would stay. Left for the almighty $$$ THEN did his ankle which if my info is correct has had two operations to fix! 

    A HUGE NO FROM ME TAINTED MONEY HUNGRY MERCENARY!

    I’m weighing up which is the more bizarre thread, this one or the Harley Bennell thread. Line ball.

    Maybe we could get both $cully and Bennell: trade for Clarrie and Gus. I am sure Ding Dong ? would think that was a fair trade.

    This thread needs more @Supermercado.

    I've just been thinking about how much more interest I'll have in GWS next year when this dead-eyed mercenary plonker is gone.

    Hope he somehow ends up at St Kilda so we can be guaranteed he'll never play in a flag.

    Jake Carlisle spewing on him would be icing on the cake really.

    Classic. Remind us who it was again?

    Oh Ok. So let me get this straight. You guys are all happy to let an All Australian caliber wingman (2017 40 man squad) go a fellow top 4 contender for a ham sandwich at the expense of filling one of our key needs which is outside run, carry, class and goal kicking.

    I guess we’ll all settle for JFk spudding up the MCG southern stand wing next year as most of you can’t build a bridge and get over an incident that happened 7 years ago.

    As much as my heart says no my head says yes if his ankle is good

    the guy ripped our heart out when he deserted to fill his wallet but I agree that he would certainly help fill a void we have with outside run and the thought of the Dorks getting that advantage makes me feel sick

    would be hard no doubt to cheer him like other players who have been loyal but - if it took us closer to an elusive flag why not consider it

    How the [censored] do the hawks keep bending over the comp?! Mitchell for 14, Scully for 40. 

    Its like there is different rules for them

    ITS amazing that Hawthorn just keep plucking talent from other clubs and they give up nothing to get them across. Meanwhile, the MFC is sitting around waiting on the flogs in the West to sort something reasonable out. We have a lot of spots to fill on our list, dunno why we are seemingly sitting on our hands when blokes like this are moving

    Putting aside my total dislike for $cully. Hawthorn are the number one destination club because they have the leagues number 1 coach and a great medical team which $cully might need. 

    In the cold light of day if $cully came back to Melbourne supporters would just have to put up with it. I have no doubt the football department would do what’s best for the club. 

    $cully already knows at least a third of the supporters at Melbourne despise him and surely that would be on his radar.

    They go to the Hawks because they are a succesful club with facilities rather than a public park for a training oval

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
