Scully out of TAC Cup decider

TOM Scully, Melbourne's No. 1 draft choice-in-waiting, will miss tomorrow's TAC Cup grand final after having surgery to mend his injured knee on Tuesday night.

Scully, who will miss the chance to captain the Dandenong Stingrays in their second consecutive grand final, had a small crack in his kneecap repaired and some floating pieces of bone removed from the injured joint.

The midfielder was injured during the Stingrays' 41-point preliminary final win over the Geelong Falcons on Saturday, sat out most of the last quarter after starring early and saw specialist David Young yesterday ahead of his operation.

I liked this bit:

The Cannons' side will feature the Western Bulldogs' two father-son prospects for 2010 - Tom Liberatore and Mitch Wallis - with Wallis rated a particularly promising prospect at this early stage.

Disappointing that Scully will miss – I was looking forward to our boys going head to head to see how they compare with the best.

Calder to win by 4 goals.

With Libba and Wallis featuring the best no doubt.

Wouldn't it be great for them to really shine, and we can give the bird to the football world telling them to 'eff off' - They're ours!!

On the weekends form Dandenong should start the favorites but we all know to never write off the Cannons in the finals.
I'll go for the Stingrays by 12 points.

You won't have any problems recognising Wallis in particular. (Not that you probably would anyway)

No, I've really had enough of footy and apparently I haven't gotten over last week yet.

I'll tape the game though.
