Shock, outrage and confusion flooded the football community when this trade went through at the ‘small’ compensation was a future round 4 pick, in reality a pick approximately around the range of 60 in next years draft, or to out in more blunt a ‘salary cap dump’ trade.
Depending on which media reporting outlet you listen to, the severity of his injury and subsequent recovery from surgery could see him miss large chunks of the 2019 if not the entire season all together. If Scully can get back to even 85% of his best his endurance running he’s going to be a huge inclusion for the Hawthorn Football club and compliment their midfield balance perfectly.
Focussing on his fantasy numbers he’s never been able to deliver us numbers that would consider him to be a premium. The closest he got was back in 2016 where from 22 games he averaged just shy of 96 in AFLFantasy and 97 in SuperCoach. Outside of that season he’s floated his averages across all formats from the high 70’s to mid 80’s. While these numbers mostly make him irrelevant in salary cap formats of the game he’s a serviceable draft selection historically.
Barring some miracle recovery regardless of his price and guaranteed discount he’s unlikely to be in starting squad calculations making him largely irrelevant in the salary cap formats. He may be worth a super late draft pick up depending on the depth of your squads and team numbers, but certainly wouldn’t lose any sleep if someone else jumped on him.
