Just about had enough of this bloke. Him and the EFC go hand in hand together, all this 'look at me' bs.

Was umming and ahhing most of 2019, then again during 2020 (whilst he was in Aus). Now he arks up again about another possible stint, lol. Save me (unless he wants to put the scum through the ringer again - that i have no problem with ?)

    He said he'd play a short stint, June to September, in the event his local club are county teams were out of their respective GAA championship. His county team, Tyrone, are strong and make the semis most years. I'd be very surprised if he returns.

    Melbourne were trail blazers in terms of recruiting in Ireland. Sean Wight and Jim Stynes were brilliant servants so why have the club turned away from this source of players? Other clubs continue to have success there so why not us?

    Potential to pick him up as a rookie under the AFL's new monthly rookie sign on rules (or whatever they are) potentially?  But I'd hope we were not in pole position to get him based on us having a low enough ladder position at the time to pick him up.

    Home sickness is a real thing, I don't want to diminish it. But I think this bloke just wants to pick and choose and do things on his own terms which isn't really a team mentality. 

    And to be fairer too him he's also talking to Irish reporters about a move in a few years time. He's not planning to fly back over here in June. So the time to assess it is in the future not now.

    He’s the player who derailed our season before it started with his positive test. Obviously not intentional but didn’t he go out on house inspections which were disallowed?

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
