    Actually wouldn't be mad. I mean, don't get me wrong, not pushing for it to happen at all but there's certainly a role for him on the wing.

    The price that the hawks are rumored to get him at too...

    he won't be going for a pay cut but his $1M a year deal ran out a few years back. I would expect he's somewhere round the 500-600K mark. Not much more than we would have been paying Tyson.

    Just cannot believe the lack of interest in him generally.

    Hawks have offered a 4 year deal which seems reasonable and he's passed a medical.

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

    The real question is, do we have enough room in the cap to employ his father as well..?

    The thought of $cully back in red & blue makes me spew in my mouth a little bit.

    BUT, if the going rate is a 40+ pick, and hes not Hawthorn or nothing, then I'd hope we are at least having a look.

    I think...

    I'd be delighted if he came back and played on a wing. He would be massive step from Tyson, Jones and JFK who are as slow as slugs.

    Who cares what happened in 2011. Build a bridge and get over it.

    I believe JFK took a slug which made him slow.

    It would be highly doubtful he will get up for next season considering the scope of his injury. Very few have come back from that.

    If that does, do big Max proud and direct it at some unsuspecting punter.

    The tought of Hawthorn picking him up for as low as pick 53 is making me spew.  Kane Corns and Tim Watson are also suggesting that the AFL shold get involved and investigate/ interven should he go for that little.  Fat chance of that happening, the AFL do nothing in these situations, just look at Luke Ball - Collingwood and Chris Judd to Carlton.

    Still it suprises me that the likes of St Kilda, Carlton, North and the Doggies are not into Scully and surely those players would have better trade material than pick 53 to offer GWS in return.

     Equalisation is completely broken if there was ever such a thing in the first place.

    Agree it's a bargain but remember that GWS are agreeing to it. While Scully is not entitled to say I will only go to Hawthorn he is entitled to reject being traded to a named club. Same as what Hogan has done to us with Freo.

    Obviously the Giants modelled their salary cap on a flag in 2017 and 2018. Understandable if you think about it. Now they have to do something drastic.

    Heard on the radio yesterday that Collingwood might be a chance for Patton. If so makes the decision to trade Lobb even more puzzling.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
