7-UP

Watching Eagles make me realize the only difference between us and them is they have senior players that been there and won premierships.

Maybe we should change the policy and have few guys with good experience so we can be the eagles of 2012.

"WE WERE WRONG"

The Age

The Australian

Channel 7

Fox Sports

The Swans

Hopefully this is the case for Scully, Morton and Martin.

Can we delete this topic.

Hopefully he didn't sign because dees already know scully's decision.

But i am over the moon Sylvia committed to us and F**** off media you got another story wrong.

Now let me see. That leaves them with Sheedy, Choko Williams, Phil Davis and ...

You forgot Gubby Allen.

P.S- and Israel Folau, who according to sheedy the best talent in AFL :P :P

Didn't sheeds say he secured one of three players out of Pendles, Swan and Thomas.

Obviously even Sheedy doesn't know what's going on inside his club.

After reading the first two paragraphs in the article, some might definitely change their opinion, even though the author is Caroline Wilson.

SCULLY FUTURE NOT SET

Warning: Just read the first two paragraphs because the rest is as bad as than anything written in this forum about Tom Scully.

At least I can say Morton is not going.

Why would he appear in Footy show grand final review with boys at the end of september if he is already leaving to GWS.

If you want confirmation check JTren9 's twitter account.

I heard SEN talked with Sam Blease and he said he is best mate with Scully and confident Scully will wear Dees jumper next season.

That's a big confident booster for people that still believe he will stay.

Regarding the drug gossip, last year a bouncer phoned SEN and said he felt he had to comment on the Melbourne boys. He said that with all the negative publicity about Mad Monday and what teams get up to, he felt obliged to say that Melbourne were well behaved and respectful during the end-of-season bash, and when one of our players had too much and they told him to go home, the senior players first asked if they could put him on water until he sobered up, and when told no they put him in a taxi and apologised on his behalf.

Absolutely a substance abuse issue here.

Is it Scully that had too much

Well don't just ask us to delete, you delete your comment first.

And this person is not the only one who blame us having a bad culture. I heard this comment a lot after Dean Bailey got sacked.

Don't speak if you don't have any evidence.

I repeat all I have said, not that I can remember now.

Why would it be announced quickly? If he was waiting until the end of the season he might be interested in the collective pay deal and who our new coach will be (and we all know that will not be announced until after the GF).

or maybe he is already agreed to stay with dees but decided to talk contracts after season?

Why do you think demons administration perfectly fine with waiting until end of the season.

This is an AFL video that shows kicks after the siren to win the games. http://www.afl.com.au/video/tabid/76/contentid/384765/invoke/default.aspx#playvideo#playvideo

Warning! It has 1987 Dees vs Hawks Preliminary Finals footage of Hawks kicking the goal after the siren to win the game to advance to the grand final.

Which makes me wonder does any Demon player has a kick after the siren to win the game, because I hasn't seen any footage of demons winning after the siren in this video.

Scully is a smart kid, who knows he might have agreed to stay with Dees already but been true to his words will talk about his contract at the end of the season.

From what i know Jack Trengove signed his contract 3 weeks before the announcement, so don't be surprise demons just want to surprise their fan's and get their membership up by announcing scully's decision right after the season end.

But the thing is Ward hasn't made up his mind when the news broke out about gws offer and has been playing fantastic footy for bulldogs, maybe Rodney Eade been sacked and Bulldogs missing Finals mght have motivated his decision to leave.

I have to say right now even though we had a bad season we are ahead of bulldogs right now, and they are going to be in rebuilding phase starting next year so that might be the main reason ward decide to take the cash and run.

Has media got anyone right about who GWS will get next year.

Why am i saying this?

Because Alipate Carlile resign with Power. http://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/122247/default.aspx

And for a fact only GWS signing Davis came into media attention just week before his announcement.

So who do you believe scully or media?

I think the answer is simple, because there hasn't been any proof yet that scully lied to anyone so I trust scully.

On Footy Classified Joel Selwood talked about the Ablett situation last year and how it was a factor the the team "underperforming".

Clarkson talked about the need for stability in a club for it to succeed and that was one of the reasons he's staying and announcing the decision to stay "early".

I don't know how much Scullygate is destabilizing MFC but I know it isn't doing it any good. If Tom goes I can understand his stance but if he stays, and he knew he was going to stay sometime ago then he's not served himself or the club well.

Can you say a team that went to preliminary finals as a team under-performed, I know Geelong were premiership contenders, but they are clearly the number 3 team last year.

IMO there's a main reason everyone inside the club defend Tom Scully all season (Because they all have a reason to believe Tom Scully is staying.)

Unlike some tabloid reporters who doesn't know anything.

I think people will be surprise by the announcement Scully makes at the end of the season

The deep bone bruising?

Directly out of the mouth of Cameron Schwab yesterday.

Some would choose not to believe him though.

Also said it was the other knee that was the issue, not the one he fractured before being drafted.

So any comparisons to Cooney would be moot at this stage.

It will heal fully, but it just takes quite a bit of time.

He can still play on through the pain, but it'd be considerable.

mate have you asked him his opinion about scully's decision?

IMO Tom Scully seems really happy and pumped with our win

and for those people that make assumption that he is gone I'm not being sarcastic.

Demons sign $6M deal with EnergyWatch

I want this to be the headline with Tom Scully's name at the end of the season.

Well except $6M

Well the last time i check this article is written by Mike Shehan, so it's up to us to make our own assumptions.

And apparently the main person behind energy watch who agreed to this deal is a bulldogs supporter.

Bulldogs won't be happy about that, what is bulldogs main sponsor some sort of restuarant or something?

wait let's trade Colin Sylvia, Cale Morton and Tom Scully for 6 first round picks for GWS, no matter how good that trade would be it wouldn't help club's development

it's frustrating to see some people still see negative jokes about this contract............

I wonder how they survive this season?

I am shamed to have demon supporters like that.
