Squiggle tips Demons at 77% chance -- What's your tip? -- Team line-ups »
His head was way too small for his body
Why wait, the MSD is around the cornerTyronne Vickery into Tom Scully into Jon Patton.... we are on some run currently... Looking forward to welcoming Tyson Stengle and Sam Murray to our club next season.
Any pun intended there?Always struck me as a bit soft in his Snapchats.
What did that cost us?
A 4th and a future 4th and money we had plenty of because we have been under the cap for years.
Here is your chance. Rather than cheap pot shots tell us your plan.
The floor is yours. What would you do with a 4th round and a future 4th round pick?
Yes the old broom, sweep, rug policy has served them well for many yearsAlso, from the AFL website - how is it a "shock" retirement ???
Retiring is what you do in the AFL to get away from your problems and then they sweep it under the rug.. He was always going to retire....
Pathetic from the AFL really. Spineless even
Exactly what we should have done instead of trading for Omera and Wingard... go to the draft...and yes I know what you’re going to say “but fourth round draft picks are a lottery”...
I would say getting injury prone washed up players is much worse..Scully and Patton were both cooked before coming to us...the worst part was the fact they continued to be gifted senior games over our youngsters...
Patton consistently got games last season when he didn’t deserve to play..and we wonder why Mitch Lewis was so poor..yes he was injured in pre-season, but he wasn’t giving a consistent go.
Scully continued to get games the last two seasons when he didn’t deserve too..he was a liability..my favourite from our supporters was the “but he works really hard and opens up space for our midfielders”....he was an absolute potato every time he played...he did not have a single above average game...we also had smith and Henderson and still gave him games.. he was soft and didn’t get the ball despite running more than anyone on the ground...
The development and growth already this season in guys like Morrison, jiath, Moore proves exactly what a waste of time and resource it was bringing in those guys...
Please tell me what draft picks we selected guys like sicily, Hardwick, Worpel (despite being a spud this season, he’s won a B and F), Moore, Lewis, Koschitzke with and tell me paying guys like vickery, Patton and Scully over $500k a season and gifting them games was a smart decision and good list management.

For every good 4th round pick there are dozens and dozens who have gone nowhere.
Last year I dont think any clubs even used a 4th round pick.
We took a chance on potential good players.
Scrimshaw was a 4th round pick trade. Please find fault in that one.
DeGoey.By all accounts an absolute moron.
Goodbye.
Scrimshaw was young and wasn’t getting paid $500+k a season... Scully and Patton were way past their best and both injury prone...
Scrimshaw was also another youngster who was not able to get consistent games over the past few seasons because Clarko kept gifting games to guys like Stratton, puopolo, O’Brien, ceglar and Scully.
Not to mention knowing that all the, err, evidence would be reviewed by your employer.I feel sorry for him.
It cant be easy dealing with the humiliation of dealing with your personal issues and weaknesses in the public eye. Hopefully hes ok and can become a better person in the future. Treating women with respect would be a good start.
Patton and Vickery played for Hawthorn?See ya chump.
I hope he gets himself sorted so some other poor unfortunate is spared his bullshit and that he does ok in life.
But beyond that I will happily try to forget he ever played for Hawthorn.
the carpet is not as silly as we think.. examples are made but it shouldn't be the 'hang 'em ad weep. do we protect the players who don't knowYes the old broom, sweep, rug policy has served them well for many years
