WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - TOMAS BUGG


whatwhat say what

Recommended Posts

I am getting more convinced with each passing hour, that we are trying to do another deal with Bugg involved.

It is a simple deal for probably our pick 50, yet it is not being done and there appears no angst from anyone about it, nor is it being reported on.

We now have only 1.5 days left of the trade period and it doesn't make sense to me otherwise.

like what else? we should trade all our picks (besides 50 that goes for Bugg and our 5, 6th and 7th round) for 17. If we can, Grab some more talent for pick 17

What about Tomlinson and Bugg for 29 and 50.

The last pick in the draft that's worth any points is Pick 73 I think, worth 9 points. So Picks 29, 46 & 64 are the only ones we have worth anything given Pick 50 already seems to be allocated.

I wonder what role people expect Tomlinson to play for us. He is not quite a mid, forward, back or ruck. Has a tank but that is about it from what I have seen.

He played his best football down back. I'd play him as a key position defender and leave Frost or McDonald forward. That is if we took him.

I mentioned this in another thread but surely we are looking at another ruck man.....

Agree. In the games i have seen him play, he's done nothing to suggest that he will become a good AFL player, let alone a great/star player. Overrated (probably why Carlton are interested in him)

Playrers with a big tank will be very valuable now the sub rule is gone. Hes shown he can get the footy and cover a lot of ground at AFL level.. he averages a lot of marks and works hard.

Would be a very good link man between the arcs. Hes not a forward though, doesnt kick goals.

A role that's like a combination of Isaac Smith and Jack Gunston.

Bugg is not rating a mention anywhere. Strange.

There's plenty in my room.Maybe you bathe too frequently.

How naughty of you to make a non football quote Biffen. Please delete it immediately or I shall report you to the Snitch.

Not much footy on.

Bugg-er all to discuss.

Why don't you just tell them to bugg-er off?

Just looked at his highlights and he reminds me of a similar type to Viney. In fact all 3 of the players we are going to/have picked up seem to show ferocity at the pill. After all of the extremely negative talk on here about trade week I feel confident that the ins will add a bit of grunt to the team. Not big fish but man eaters never the less

Any link to those highlights?

FWIW re Tomlinson...

Carlton offering big money for 3 years I am hearing. He is to move in with Dom Tyson back in Melbourne. If we trade McCarthy then Tommo will be staying. If we keep McCarthy then Tommo will be gone with the other boys to Carlton (has to be a ripper trade though).

Looks like Carlton are going to haul in 4 or 5 GWS boys with just two picks

I have no idea if any of them are any good or not

Not really, SOS is just bringing the rejects he recruited down to the Blues to further continue their ineptness.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
