Hidden a few tabs down in this report . If this is right its the second time Scully has really f'd with the club he's leaving. They got a future round 4 for him because his ankle was so stuffed....and suddenly, hey presto, he'll be playing in the next few weeks. Clarko busy saying he got better with the hawks because we werent pressuring him about a return date. What a load of absolute frikn garbage. Remember his knee when he was playing for us. Full respect for his footy ability but the guy has the loyality of a pea..which is perhaps being unnecessarily harsh on the vegetable kingdom. Sully wanted to get to the hawks and made it super easy to for the to trade for him by having an ankle "that may never let him play again" then bang...all better. Somewhere theres been some big lying going down. GWS got shafted.

    I always thought $cully leaving was more to do with SC relief for GWS than the trade deal

    It was a salary cap dump, but that doesn't explain the 4th round pick in return.  If his ankle wasn't 'wrecked' then they would have asked for better than a 4th rounder and they would have received it. 

    In regards to him playing again this year... I'll believe it when I see it.  There is a such a massive difference between training, match sim, etc. and playing senior football; especially as Scully has always been a player who has heavily relied upon his running and fitness.

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
