    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.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
