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

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.
