Scully would be right up there on the list of players who made the most money while being absolutely worthless. That deal was even disgusting by Fremantle standards and they are the kings of terrible trades
worthless yet he has the most kms per game of any player of the last 15 years or so? hes an elite runner and in his prime he was a great player??? overpriced but not worthless. u have no ball knowledge
As a freo supporter it hurts me seeing we traded away both Hodge and Mitchell in one trade, but I cant picture either of them at any other club than the hawks.
if deledio doesn’t leave, tiges don’t have the cap space to get dion prestia, who was arguably the missing piece in that richmond side. Plus after years of Richmond mediocrity he was according to some quite cynical and wouldn’t even talk to new players after having seen so many failed prospects pass through the club’s doors.
You missed an important part of the Jack Watts story. He had just found a new role on half back and was really looking like a new player in that role. It was like 2 games later he got badly injured and never returned. I always felt it was a very sad way to end a career that could have had a really nice conclusion without that injury.
They screwed up a lot over that period of time. But I never understood the later on criticism at them taking him over nic nat. Watts was the consensus number 1 at the time, they would have been crucified if they didn't take him, and it was the right call at the time, no one was really sure if nic nat would actually be good. And they certainly didn't do enough for him
@@biggi3st3v3 I also got the impression that Nick Nat would not have been happy with Melbourne and pull a Luke Jackson and go straight back to Western Australia.
Would you still have that same opinion if he was picked at 60? Played almost 200 games and kicked 150 goals over the 10 years he played. If he wasn't picked at no.1 most would say it was a successful career
