Just when I thought the biggest problem was I seemed hooked on 'Beamer's Bumps & Bruises'...
At least it open an opportunity for another young player to get a game.

Re: Scully out for 4 weeks.
It's a very legitimate question relax buddy.
He is backing his ability to have a cracking year and inflate his market value, and will now miss 4-6 weeks (HUN says 4-6) which reduces his ability to do that.
Our midfield is looking very shaky now with McKenzie out as well.

Re: Scully out for 4 weeks.
it doesnt matter how many games he plays this year, there still going to have to offer him 700,000 a season to keep him regardless.

Re: Scully out for 4 weeks.
i reckon we will be right
if you think about it
Round 1 vs sydney
Round 2 vs Hawthorn
Round 3 vs Brisbane (MCG)
Round 4 vs Gold Coast
Round 5 vs BYE
Sets sunday up for a huge game, saying we lose to hawthorn, we really should beat brisbane and gold coast (with possibly frawley back for both), going 3-1 into the Bye would be huge, gets scully right and possibly mckenzie right for a massive start after the Bye.

Re: Scully out for 4 weeks.
Terrible run of injuries thus far... Doesn't bode well for a successful season.
I hate to pessimistic, even though I often am, but as a betting man I feel there is decent value betting against us making the finals. Can get odds of around $2.30 to miss the 8. I'm thinking about splashing, and hoping I lose my bet.

Disappointing but, as jurrah13 said, it shouldn't be too bad. We should be able to beat Sydney, Brisbane and the Gold Coast without him and would probably lose to Hawthorn with him.

Re: Scully out for 4 weeks.
So the official line:
"The scans detected bone stress in Tom's left knee cap," Melbourne doctor Andrew Daff said in a statement on melbournefc.com.au.
Bone stress is a fairly non-specific term. Amongst other possibilities, it could mean bone-bruising, or, the early signs of a stress-fracture. Whatever the scan means, there isn't any doubting that the volume of Scully's training has been limited during the last couple of months. Finger's crossed 4-6 weeks of complete rest will get it right.
If memory serves, didn't Scully suffer a similar injury in 2009 that put him out of the TAC cup finals?

Re: Scully out for 4 weeks.

Re: Scully out for 4 weeks.
Odds are based initially on how much they anticipate will be bet on each side but the odds can change radically based on actual bets placed. Overall, they just represent the public sentiment which is reflected in the bets.
The odds for the Swans have dropped from $2.30 down to $2.15 since the news, will be interesting to see if they drop any further.

Exactly the same thing he fractured his patella at the end of the 2009 season. Hopefully just a coincidence

Re: Scully out for 4 weeks.
All shit aside if MFC offer him $700k a season over 2-3 years I will be very disappointed. I know that GWS are going to throw massive coin at him, but to suggest he is close to even worth that is an absolute joke. If he wants that sort of cash I would say walk.
If we offer him that amount of money then Frawley, Green and Jamar should be on $1.5m a year.
Before I get shot down, he looks like being a star but at the moment he would only just scrap into a top 10 players, let alone being the highest paid player at the club.

Re: Scully out for 4 weeks.
Pretty fair question imo. Im not overly distressed with him missing 4-6 weeks this year, but Ill be gutted if he signs with GWS.
And make no mistake - this could have huge ramifications for his next contract.
GWS will not get a chance to do their own medical examinations before the end of the year so they would be seriously reconsidering any million $$ contracts for this 19 y/o..
If this is a re-occurance of his fractured patella of 2009, Melbourne should hold him back for 10 weeks.

Re: Scully out for 4 weeks.
Agree with this. May cause unrest with the other star players if he's payed to much. Could also bring team closer together if one of the players jumps ship for cash.

Re: Scully out for 4 weeks.
well bruce was on 600,000, how do you figure that, the guy was a *******, and losing a player like TS isnt going to bring them closer togother, in that media conference the kid talked about values, repaying the club, loved his mates and loved going to work everyday,if he was 26yrs old youd be worried, the kids 19, hes not going to move up to that shit hole, hes just holding out for a better contract.
