Debuting in round five, Scully was a regular fixture in the team for the rest of the year and won St Kilda's "best first-year player" award for his performances in 12 games.[2][3] In round 17 he was reported for striking Essendon player Charlie May, for which he was suspended for five games.[4] He did not return the following season until round six and kicked three goals in his first game back, against Essendon.[2][5] He played every game except the final two rounds, due to a shoulder injury.[2][6] His 1926 season was interrupted by an eight-week suspension, incurred for an incident in St Kilda's round two loss to Geelong at Junction Oval.[7] The incident happened after Scully received a free kick for having his arm pulled by Geelong's Ken Leahy.[8] According to the field umpire's account, Scully punched the ball away following the free kick, which struck Leahy in the face.[8][9] The pair then exchanged blows and had to be separated by the boundary umpire.[8] As Leahy was the first to strike, Scully's suspension was for "retaliation".[8] The tribunal chairman believed Leahy was the aggressor, but as Scully was also charged with striking they could not take provocation into account.[8][10] Leahy was also suspended for eight weeks.[10] A return to football was further delayed by a court case, relating to the theft of a motor vehicle tyre from the property of St Kilda vice president John Beddison.[11] Scully pleaded guilty to the charge and was committed for trial in August, along with four other men, two of them his brothers.[11] On the night in question, the men had dinner at the Duke of Edinburgh Hotel in St Kilda, which was managed by Beddison.[12] Soon after 8 pm, the men left in a taxi and Beddison noticed that the tyre was missing from his car outside the hotel.[12] Prosecutors alleged that Scully had taken the tyre, which he dropped off at a local motor garage during the taxi ride.[13] The judge asked the jury to take into consideration that Scully was intoxicated and the jury returned a not guilty verdict.[13] He played in three of the final four rounds of the season.[2] In 1927, Scully played 14 games for St Kilda and kicked 18 goals.[14] The following year he left to coach Penshurst.[15][16] References1. ^{{cite book|last=Holmesby|first=Russell|last2=Main|first2=Jim|title=The Encyclopedia Of AFL Footballers| publisher=BAS
