GWS midfielder Tom Scully reportedly wants to come back home to Victoria, and Hawthorn are set to be in the box seat for the 27-year-old.

Herald Sunย journalist Sam Edmund told SEN Breakfastย Scully wants to return home, and Hawthorn are right into the elite two-way runner.

โ€œThe big name that the Hawks are trying to get now, 100 per cent confirmed, is Tom Scully,โ€ Edmund toldย SEN Breakfast.

โ€œThey are into him in a massive way. Take it to the bank.

โ€œHe wants to come home, but without being inside the club itโ€™s hard to know how hellbent he is on it.

โ€œItโ€™s also hard to know how willing the Giants will be to get rid of him given theyโ€™ve lost Shiel, theyโ€™ve lost Lobb, theyโ€™ve lost Setterfield โ€“ how many players will they be prepared to lose?โ€

Sam McClure confirmed the news on Trade Radio, admitting Scully had already completed a medical with the Hawks, and the Giants were open to trading him.

McClure also suggested it looks likely the Hawks will now bring in Scully and Chad Wingard during the trade period.
