I hope Tom was honest to Garry about what he thought was wrong at melbourne Dean Bailey apparently said on friday night on SEN Tom went to him a few times about issues. If there are issues and it looks like they are then they must be dealt with. We need to start fresh next season and maybe some people ned to go and not have a boys club mentality. Also what did happen in China last season. Did Scully really get vomitted on and did the players just treat it as a end of season trip. ANyway for those interested Tom will be on SEN ont he rum home after 4. I hope OX asks some hard questions.

Lets face it he has treated us like fools. Is he now trying to convince people that he only made the decision overnight. Give me a spell. Your mind was made up before that. You dont make a decision like that overnight. What 20 year old wouldnt take a job where you get 2 mill in your first season but lets face it he isnt worth that. He is so far off being in a Judd/Ablett category. The question is does he attend our b&f because I reckon Moloney will win it and I think he may have some advice for Tom like he did for Brock a few years ago. Anyway Tom I hope your knee holds up next year because I think a few boys will be gunning for you. Mike Sheehan said today he never htought Scully embraced melbourne and the culture. Matty Lloyd said he will get a bigger shock living in the west. On SEN they said that when the announcemnt is made Tom and his family will be climbing the bridge. Not sure how much of that is true and how they would know that but he will be even more gutless if he wont be there to answer questions. Peoples dont say you wont renew your membership. Re-sign to show your support for the people that did. Trengove, Sylvia, Gawn and the others.

How please do your reckon Scully was when he got to the airport and saw Hutchy there. Im glad he was there and made him answer questions even though we didnt really get answers. But if he was going up to have a lokk around why would you take your sister. Lets face it. He is showing his family where he will be living next year and introducing his parents to Sheeds. He will not go up there and come home then go up there again for a press conference. Sorry I believe either tomorrow or Tuesday he will be in a GWS top and he will try to convince the world he only made his mind up in the past 3 days.

Buddy just has bone brusing and a jarred knee. No ACL.

Did anyone see the start of ch10 news. Dean said he wasnt aware of the rules about betting. Duh when there are guidelines given to you and to all coaches and support staff and were you living under a rock when Heath Shaw got suspended. Seriously I know I wrote it earlier but you are dumb

How stupid is this guy. Firstly he walks into a TAB probably in his bendigo bombers gear and places the bets on. Dumb to start with. The he bets on his own team. Then he lies to the AFL and says it was for a friend and the bet wasnt on a bombers game. He then keeps on lying to the AFL until they keep questioning him and he buckles and says it wasnt for a friend and I did bet on a bombers game. Seriously and I thought Heath Shaw was stupid.

I dont think it was us that stuffed up that trade. I hitnk Sewell was happy to come it was Ferguson that refused to leave. More fool him. That was a stupid decision.

Whoever it is then they are brave. I reckon our team has got to be so frustrating to coach. But I think it would be good to get an experienced coach. But they are taking on an exciting list.

Yeah they said on mmm a few weeks ago that GWS could have someone right out of left field that no one has even thought about and when its revealed it will be suprising. I cant see Sam Mitchell going because he has 3 young children under 2. I reckon he & his wife would want the family support around them and he wouldnt want to leave hawthorn. Plus he is contracted next year. They just had Paul Conners on SEN with Harf and he said it wasnt all about the money, then harf said in all fairness if GWS only offered him abround 400,000 then he wouldnt have taken it. Conners said probably not but Ward was also excited about the people he would be playing with. Ward is doing a presser with GWS on wednesday where other team mates will be there. Apparently he told Paul last week he thought his mind was made up.

Matthew Warnock has told melbourne he wants to be traded. I dont blame him. He is obviously frustrated with his lack of opportunity in senior level this season. He has only played 4 games. But I think our backline is something we have got right and is pretty settled. Anyway best of luck whereever he ends up. Cant we send him to GWS as our only player they can have instead of scully.

Do you reckon melbourne will just put out a statement like this if Scully goes. I rerckon GWS will have a presser this week with Ward & Scully sitting there in there new polos. Well if you want to give Scully the captaincy then go ahead but everyone knows he isnt ready for it.

Well it doesnt fill me with much hope when his uncle told me tonight he and his mum have been looking at houses around sydney. But hey maybe he realised its not the place to live and he just wanted to check it out. Anyway on another note did anyone see the doggies fans booing Ward today in the dogs, freo game. Anyway just get the announcement over and done with.

Thats awesome. They just mentioned it on SEN and mentioned how sydney and essendon were sniffing around. Glad to see you re-sign Col.

A few things about this article. Firstly this happend 5 years ago. Why is it just coming to our attention now. Is this guy still suffering damage. Remember those days when we were allowed to train on the G. Seriously who hasnt been hit in the head by a footy. Does this mean in another 5 years more people will be suing us because of last weeks kick to kick after the siren. Because there were footys flying everywhere and I saw 1 guy get smacked by the footy right on top of his head. Also 180,000 are you serious. Unless you have a serious brain injury or damage then you dont deserve it. Also sue the player not the club. Another thing pay attention to the surroundings around you and if you wernt wearing a hard hat then that is your fault. Gosh we are turning into america. Suing everyone for everything.

Tom Scully general soreness. Whatever. We should make him play and if he hurts himself further its not our problem. Let GWS and there brilliant medical team deal with him. I guess that will have people talking. Anyway glad to see Fitzpatrick debut.

I always knew dean Wallis had no brains. What an idiot. Did he learn nothing from the Heath Shaw incident. I hope he gets sacked or suspended for a very long time. He should just get suspended for being so stupid. So he has aid he put the bet on behalf of a friend. That just makes it even funnier. So funny its essendon.

Well on monday we may find out because they said on ch10 sport last night that GWS may announce some players on monday who they have signed up that arent part of finals action. At least we will be put out of our misery. If Scully does go then I just want to know when he made his mind up.

So when do you think we will get a scully announcement. Next week or after casey finishes there season because i think they dont have mad monday until casey finishes there season. I think Tom will be relieved at 5pm on sunday. Anyway if he goes then I think Blease can slot into his spot beautifully. His pace was amazing last week. Ive resigned to the fact he is going but if he does re-sign with us then I thnk that will shock the football world more. It would be nice to see him re-sign and prove some people wrong. Cant wait to hear his reasons for leaving if this is the case though.

http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/122088/default.aspx Interesting article on the AFL website. Todd says he will review things after the season. I know we only beat GC but maybe he sees some things working and now he has been there for a few weeks he has settled into it. Todd obviously doesnt hold back on anything and it seems like last week there were some truths spoken about the richmond loss. As they said on radio today, Todd was the toughest player when he ran out on the field and he would expect nothing less than his players. He isnt afraid to make the big calls either. Anyway what would you think about Todd being coach. Im just not sure how he will go coaching his son.

I like the 4 page liftout out spread in todays age. The CEO of energy watch wearing a dees scarf looks good. Anyway im glad he has the faith in our club to sponser us for that much.

When this was announced 2 years ago people knew it wouldnt work but then they managed to win a premiership and not much was said. Now its getting closer and now its being talked about. The thing is Mick isnt a coaching director. Its not what he ever wanted to be. Sernior coaching is what he is good at. Also can you imagine Eddie coming to you saying that you will coach for the next 2 years then Nathan will take over. How does that sound. Of course Mick says yes. Can you imagine Mick saying no to that to Eddies face. Also its funny how we havent heard Nthan come out and actually say he wants Mick there next year.

That is an awesome deal. Also they did the ad very quickly. Glad to see Jack front the ad. Well done to those involved. Does that mean we can afford to pay 100% of the salary cap now and us memebrs wont be asked for donations anymore?

Yeah it probably was a bit harsh to put Bartram in with Scully and Morton. I know he has a crack but after 5 or so seasons you would have thought his kicking would have improved. It would be nice for Todd to coach a win. It will be interesting to see the crowd numbers though

Bad news. Some person at the club thought it would be a brilliant idea to sign him for 3 years. Im blaming Schwab as CEO I remember reading that West is out of contract and it said in the same article that Royal was signed for 3. So after this season we have him for another 2 years. If Richmond need that as motivation then thats pretty sad. I dont agree with him saying we were certanties to win but saying your confident, well there is nothing wrong with that. I mean he isnt going to say no on our form im not to confident.

So our last home game is this week. It would be nice to see a win and I think we will. I hope anyway. But it could also be the last time we see Scully, Morton and maybe Bartram in a demons jumper. Anyway I think its great that you will be allowed on the ground for a kick afterwards.
