The only relevant one there is Trengove and even he isn't that relevant because he was never offered the Godfather type deal that Scully got from GWS.
Hogan, Brayshaw and Petracca didn't come into the league when two new clubs were about to so using them as examples is wrong and irrelevant.
The relevant part is really simple... They all have signed extensions in there first or second years to stay with us... Scully didnt and never intended too...

Threads gone weird again. Always goes strange at the mention of Scully. Don't mention Scully.
Done... He was nothing at Melbourne anyway

That was Garlett pretty much the entire 2014 season in the VFL.
Unfortunately for Carlton it seems when players know they are finished they completely clock off. Just wished they were a bit more like Dangerfield and gaf till the end.

I still believe GWS talked to Scully before he was drafted.
For the love of God.
THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH RIDICULOUS OFFERS FROM GWS!
The situations are completely different.
Dez read and think about it ok... He could of signed an extension in yr 1 but didnt period.... He didnt have the offer in his first yr did he??? Im thinking not...
He was regarded as an exceptional talent, signing an extension would mean waiting longer to sign a long term big money deal after your rookie deal.
Would have been a bad business decision on his part.
He might want to join him there but Col will only be playing for Boxhill ..
Are u his manager justifying his geeedy and selfish actions... Prove yourself first then go after big money deals... Prove u are worth them... Bad business or not...

Think Colin would get a game ahead of Frawley to be brutally honest, especially in a good system under a coach who understands the value of KPDs even when they're a bit undersized.
Not justifying anything.
You've just completely flipped your argument, by not signing an extension he aimed to prove himself enough to get that deal and got it from GWS.
Honestly contemplating standing out on the highway hoping to get hit by a truck after this, my God.
I havent flipped my argument at all... I think u need to stand in the highway... By not signi g an extension he proved to the football world he is all about the money and never about being a club player will to sacrifice anything
I think I do, your posts are killing me.

Why are people still talking about Scully? He took the unrejectable deal, he's not turned out that well and we got Hogan from the ordeal. Move on!
The thing that was most unique about the Scully deal, is that GWS didn't have to trade for him. It's also unlikely a club will have that sort of salary cap space to throw around again.
We got very lucky, in that our compensation helped secure Hogan, and Scully hasn't come on as expected.
We potentially could have been reemed by this circumstance - imagine the players involved were reversed and it was Hogan we lost and got Scully..

Do people really care if a player wants to leave? seriously of a player wants to go .. who the hell cares .. I just want a team of players that want to play for the Melbourne FC .. if they don't let them go and bring in players that want to play ...
Even if Hogan wanted to go, yes it would piss me off but hey I wouldn't lose a nights sleep .. that's a list managers problem ..
