    Any idea how he ranked among GWS players?

  • Quote

    Didn't he tear us a new one in the last quarter of round 24? although he couldn't convert any of his chances I reckon he took 3 or 4 strong marks on the lead in about 10 minutes. Could have turned the game but didn't kick straight.

    Yeah/nah. The game was all but over and probably keen to impressed his future team mates he did bob up by finding a bit of space in the last quarter. We had subbed Mitch White, Cross was off and it was Oscar Mc's second game. Not a surprise there were a few openings in the backline.

    He handballed 2 of them off to guys running passed who kicked points.

    He'll compete with Grimes and Lumumba to give us a bit of work rate for a half back/wing spot and if needed be an option to fill Jetta's spot if he's injured. Hope he plays round 1 because he'll serve it up to the giants.

    I rate Bugg, he's a very solid run with player who can win his own ball, he will free up Vince and Viney and allow them to attack more.

    A bit more insight there on Bugg.

    Some quotes: 

    "Bugg said a strong endorsement of Melbourne by former GWS teammates Dom Tyson and Sam Frost helped make his decision a no-brainer."  Good to hear the guys are happy and spreading the word...any other GWS players we want to bring home...

    “I’m really competitive and passionate when I play. You can probably see the competitiveness because I get into a few fights – I got into a little fight with Angus Brayshaw in round 23"  We might have to start a 'Thomas Bugg - you made me cry' thread...he looks a good buddy for Viney!

    Haha! I didn't see that, did he get fined or anything for it? We're starting to bring in some real tough nuts, intimidation in a few years will be huge for us! Brilliant interview

    A fine exponent of unsociable footy.

    Another competitor that doesnt take a backwards step and loves to get under the opponents skin....  Like him, like him a real lot.

    Not keen on his disposal; I noticed it in the last quarter of round 23 and it was a bit similar yesterday.  Hope he can iron it out of his game because he is ripper otherwise.

    That wasn't Toby Greene was it?

    The 4 were the marks in the last quarter.  Not normally one to harp on stats but I remember him having a great last quarter.

    Probably was Bugg then. I've just seen Toby Green do that a few times. He would be a dominator if he could kick more than 30m

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
