Still reckon now's the time to be getting into Bugg's ear and convincing him to enter the PSD!

    Still reckon now's the time to be getting into Bugg's ear and convincing him to enter the PSD!

    Came into this thread to post the exact same thing.

    I'd be getting in touch with him & saying

    "Look, GWS have shown they're happy to offload you the first chance they get. We're offering you the chance to come back to Melbourne, play with a former teammate in a young team where you have a greater chance of logging solid minutes if you work hard. Make it clear to GWS you are going to leave through the PSD to come home to VIC, we'll do the rest."

    I agree, hit up Buntine whilst we are at it, he'll be better than Bugg.

    Buntine has been injured, he has a natural inside game, he'd be a dream PSD addition.

    I like Bugg.

    Just a really solid honest player.

    Will never be a superstar, but he could be a young Brad Sewell.

    Going by BigFooty and GWS Forums, both are in contract..

    That's a shame, but I think I remember hearing that this is correct.

    Bugg signed til 2015, I think.

    Not surprised, either.

    Sewell's A grade for mine. Not a superstar, no, but that tier down. Really underrated. If he turns into another Sewell, I'd be all over him.

    B+

    Not worth having a barney over though.

    IMO Sewell is just an honest trier.

    A very very good one, but that's what he is.

    There's nothing exceptional about him, he doesn't have any amazing strengths.

    That's probably what's so amazing about his continued success.

    Bugg doesn't quite play the same position, but I think he'll be an honest unspectacular hard worker.

    You can never have too many.

    Perhaps you're right. I'd have Sewell before Jones and that's no slight against Jones. I just rate Sewell higher. He's had the support of Sam Mitchell and Jordan Lewis though, so it's a little unfair, I guess.

    Bugg sounds like the sort of guy we'd be targeting with a second round pick, next trade period. Particularly, if blokes like Clisby, Strauss and Terlich struggle in '14. Does a second round pick sound right? I hope we stay in his ear then.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
