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 PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
