Tommy Clurey is a ripper, the last of the Power players apart from Boak to play at aligned SANFL club. He was a solid contributor and top bloke at the Bay in 2013.

Wish him well as he tries to find another club.

I don't reckon Scully's junior development was the best. Saw him play a few times in the U18s, he's a bloody big kid, 203cm, but didn't really go anywhere near the ruck.

You'd think having a couple of strings to your bow at that size would be in your best interests.

Don’t think he wants to ruck, forward is his preference

Selling himself short if he wants to get back on an AFL list

Way to ruin your AFL career then.

His development was hindered because Port didnt have any good top up players
I blame the SANFL for Scully not becoming an elite AFL player

Players choose their positions now?

[Brodlach]

No point having someone playing in the ruck who doesn’t want to and not compete for taps.

Just because you are tall doesn’t mean you are a ruckman

Not the best attitude to have if you want to have a long successful AFL career....

At some time in his life he'd have played in the ruck as a junior.

By all means play other positions, I've seen it with kids I've coached and my own kids, the more strings to your bow, the better.

AFL clubs love versatility, especially a ruck/forward combo. A big bloke with forward craft is a brilliant addition to a team.

With Dixon retiring and Finlayson on the outer, it seems there's a void for a forward/ruck in the Power team.

Are Port the new Geelong?

Scully came thru the juniors with a heap of other talls, hence was played forward, don't think he is combative enough to play ruck, however was surprised Port didn't persist with him and try him there.

Mind you if he stays forward and comes back to SANFL and kicks 50+ goals he will be back on an AFL list very quickly.

Don’t come in here with facts

Steene and Barnett the rucks

[Dutchy]

and Lemmey, and all found themselves on AFL lists.

So, 3 lads going through the ruck at Westies? Why not 4? Lemmey was mainly a defender in his last year, Barnett also up forward.

I just don't get pigeon holing yourself by saying "I just want to play forward"

Anyhoo, this is in danger of going on as long as the GWS fines so I'll stop now

If you want $600k a year you do it.

Not if he sets the parameters for how or where he plays he won't.
