Tom Scully has been running rings around the other kids since his junior days. And while he may have worn a Tiger guernsey to Auskick, it's the team of red and blue that's about to gain a running machine.

we've all seen articles on this kid before, but, another one wont hurt to fuel the spirits of the Demon faithful

Bring on 2010!

 

[Mr Rude]

Do you think the HUN is having a sneaky go at us? Tom "The TANK Engine" Scully.

 

[omit]

as long as "the tank" doesn't stick it's all good

 

[FOOOOTY]

mate, when hes receiving a premiership medallion in the red & blue, i aint gunna give 2 shits from jealous opposition supporters calling us Tankers, nor do i suspect the Hawks feel that way about their premiership last year built on the Franklin/Roughead combo brought about by a priority pick.

There will always be trolls about and there will always be a team finishing last and getting the first pick (next few yrs excepted)

 

[Demon Revival]

Most people on various threads are talking about how Luke Ball's work ethic is going to change things at Melb, well stuff him, this kid will show the way & inspire older players to up the ante with their output...

Another inspiring article to generate excitement for demon supporters...

 

[Dez!]

F*** me this kid's attitude is amazing.

If we had 22 blokes with an attitude like Scully's I couldn't find an easier job in the world than coaching the Melbourne Football Club.

Also the photo that's in the Sun of Watts and Scully together as kids gave me goosebumps, Draft day couldn't come any sooner.

Jamar taps to Moloney, Moloney handballs to Trengrove, Trengrove to Tank, Scully pinpoints pass to Watts- laces out, Watts handballs to Wonaeamirri running into an open goal BANG! MCG erupts. Bring on 2010! Sylvia should be in our leadership group hard as ****!

That's right... and most of those who've made such jibes have been pretty well exposed for their hypocrisy on that subject.

Loving that passage of play... especially Aussie running into the open goal, of course

 

[DeesFan]

We dont want to use the word Tank as it might come up that we tanked to get him. Dont want to give people any opening.

Like the Blues new saying “CAN YOU SMELL WHAT THE BLUES ARE COOKING”
they could use the wooden spoons they got to stir the pot.

No Freo supporter has the right to make any comment on any other club in the AFL

Grand Final appearances- 0
Terrible song. An utter disgrace
Shocking Purple Jumper
The worst trade and draft history in the AFL
What the **** is a docker?

Piss off you troll. Perhaps rewrite your post in something close to English and consider what you write before you embarrass yourself again.

Please, someone tell me what the Fremantle football club actually stands for. They have only 1 rivalry, no history, no long term success and lack character, any great conviction or interest for any football supporter outside of WA. In fact there is a lack of interest from half of WA as well. "Cmon boys its Warfie time" WTF.

 

[AFL is Number One]

Who gives a shit what supporters of other clubs say?

I agree 110 % Well said Dez.

 

[WattsGun]

Id tank everyday of the week to get scully!!! welcome aboard...

 

[KickLongTackleHard]

This thread just attracts trolls, aka sad sad people with nothing enlightening to contribute towards a football conversation due to a severe lack of knowledge and understanding of our great game.

we might be shit like you guys on the footy field.but we make a shit load more cash.cash eventually means power. on & off the footy field.

Really? Is that why our sponsorship revenue is the 5th-highest in the AFL and why we've smashed our membership record 2 years running, and will smash it by even further next year? Is that why we've improved our financial position by over $4 million in only 18 months?

Is that why we're guaranteed around $1 million profit on the gate at the MCG every year from now on, and another large regular cash flow from our Darwin deal?

cash eventually means power. on & off the footy field.

Well good luck with your delusions anyway mushroom boy... see you about 15 years further on down the road when we've filled our trophy cabinet even further, and you're still utterly devoid of any AFL success.

You don't seem to realise that you barrack for Fremantle. I repeat - YOU BARRACK FOR FREMANTLE. That means you don't get to troll clubs...

Not to mention that their trophy cabinet is a locked box in a disused toilet at the bottom of a cellar with no lights, and no stairs, with a sign on the door saying "Beware of the Leopard"

um, Collingwood anyone? Massive financial superpower, but yet they have won 3 flags since 1937... and lost 19 grand finals in that time - i love that stat .
If Collingwood is that bad, imagine Fremantle.

Put your Superman capes on boys, it's wharfie time

Imagine Freo.

Oh I forgot that in a competition with a salary cap, drafting and competitive balance funds that money was the key to success.
Obviously St Kilda and the Western Bulldogs must have bought their way to top 4 positions this year. Oh and of course those wealthy Kangaroos must attribute all that success over 15 years to the river of funds flowing through their club. In fact Geelong (5 million debt early in the decade) and Port Adelaide must have just spent big to achieve the ultimate success as well.

What was I thinking
