WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - TOMAS BUGG

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.

    Snitch does not understand subtlety, irony, puns , humor - in fact grammar generally. Therefore your response is inadequate.

    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

    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.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
