Eddie has dropped on the radio that Tom Scully has signed with GWS to play with them next year. May not get much time with Melbourne this year.

!!! Eddie Maguire?

Why would he know about Melbourne/GWS signings....

IF & I mean IF that is a real kick in the backside to Demons. Reckon that IF true Scully would keep his mouth shut as per the Suns signings earlier last year even tho the rumors were rife & that they did eventuate!

Never believe a word that man says!!! He's from Broadmeadows :P

If true, that is a massive blow to Melbourne and the system in general. It can't be true...surely not true.

They should get the same compensation as the Ablett deal, because his potential is huge.

Not enough though.

Eddie is always trying to shower in other ppls paddock >:(

Perhaps he is saying "instead of getting Pendlebury, go after Scully, and I'll pay for half his wage out of my pocket"

They aren't short of money. They will probably go for both  :P

Scully will go... Melbourne are on the up but that sort of money  :-\ too hard to resist.

They should have made players who have played less than 50 games off limits

RiOtChEsS

agreed thats just horrorfying either that or the Ds shouldve signed him too a much longgggggggger contract 8)

ossie85


They didn't really have a choice. All new draftees are offered a 2 year contract, up to Scully if he wanted more.

Boomz

I guess they didn't think they would poach players so young & new on the scene... It's going to be very messy if he goes & they get flower all compensation for a player that will be an absolute gun & he was a priority pick wasn't he?

ossie85


Indeed.

Taking Ablett away, or any of the Collingwood guns, is almost fair game, as Geelong and the Pies have had success. But to take away Scully from the Demons... the AFL should do something.

Same with Dustin Martin, who I heard rumours about at one stage. Has he signed yet?
