Scully is just Neale-Bullen with a first round pick aura about him. 

What a load of BS, ANB plays with his heart, god I wish he was a better kick but that pays no respect to him, and he deserves it.

Imagine being Tom Scully.

You play at 3 clubs where you're remotely never going to be welcomed back for any future player functions, or part of any 100 game club where you receive life membership at the club..

You'll always be a loner Scully.

Oh, but I guess he will always have his millions.

Adonski, it goes to show that top draft picks are best used to recruit talent and class, not work rate. By all means screen the talent for attitude, and if work rate is not there than ask why not, but then back your culture to get the most out of each recruit.

Josh Kelly is as smooth as Egyptian cotton.  But boy, he doesn't like getting his hands dirty.  It's in him to get a hard ball, but right now he's a seagull.  He better pull his finger out or he'll quickly become another overrated player.  There's no press about him, but he should be dominating games and he's presently not much more than a rich man's Scully. 

I thought Josh Kelly was going to be the best player in the competition. I’m not sure what has happened to him but he has gone backwards big time.

Signed a mega million $ contract.

With his and all the talent around him he should be starring.  But like many of his teammates, they know they are good and think it will just happen without the hard work...

...recipe for a lot of unfulfilled careers.

Roos' original preference for Billings over Kelly may turn out to be the right call.

That's a bit personal. To quote Justin Bieber, "Who cares who the haters hate".

I get the impression that Max isn't the type to measure happiness and sucess in life in $.

I will take your word for it. I could handle being an average player who got paid $ millions. I would sleep well ever night.

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad.

    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. Date of Birth: 10 January 1992 Height: 193cm Games MFC 2024: 19 Career Total: 235 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 24 Melbourne Football Club: 9th Best & Fairest: 316 votes

    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. Date of Birth: 7 August 2003 Height: 185cm Games MFC 2024: 23 Career Total: 48 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 1 Brownlow Medal Votes: 1 Melbourne Football Club: 7th Best & Fairest: 347 votes

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    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.

    2024 Player Reviews: #39 Koltyn Tholstrop

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
