Scully to return : Sun Jul 19, 2009 11:39 pm  

Seen no mention of this all day but... reading article in the Daily Mail, saw Scully was saying he is itching for a game as feels as fit as ever etc.

With him still being on Saints books, commercial side, etc, do you think Potter would consider brining him in short term to cover few injury losses? I know it's good to give youth a chance but atm, seem to be running out of those lads aswell!

Would also solve kicking problem, as well as in halfs (not sure how long, Wheeler & Eastmond out for!).

What you reckon?

Yes I would have him in. BUT we'd then have to put ALL his salary on the cap, which we probably couldn't afford to do.

To return to the injury list or to the team?

Hmmm, when Radlinski played for Pies, wasn't he working there at the time? Yet played for £0.00 'officially'!

Didn't they also break the salary cap every year in those days? If it's possible and he's in reasonable shape its worth doing IMO. If he's not and if he's not been practicisng the kicking (And why would he?) then it's not worth it.

More than likely, but mean if possibe to do so!
Well if he's been coaching you never know he may have been practicing the kicks, but I know what you mean, wouldn't be any harm in throwing him into a few training sessions to see how he goes etc!

Plus imagine if the few months off had got him back in full shape and he came back with a bang and stayed fit? You'd have another 2/3 years out of him, or at least someone would!

i'd be happy to see scully back in the vee, but it wont happen

Id like him to stay away from the field and keep doing his bit commercially.
