Viney used an open hand, never anything in it.

 

didnt see Bugg incident, but have read about it and a fine seems fair enough IMO

He played a good game The Bugg

Good news as Viney's contact with Rance was deemed to be with an open hand.All clear. Buggsy was fined a grand for pushing an injured player.

As it should be!

I can never question his endeavour or his attack on the ball, but he's such an untidy player. He drops marks he should take when the pressure's on and misses team mates too often. He's good depth though.

He got into Richmond Players early and unsettled them

Did a great job...

Maybe the club should have a 'Tomas Bugg fund'. Clearly he will be fined flying the flag many times. We need that. It sets a precedent and deters other teams from trying to bully and push us around (although I would argue in this instance that pushing an injured players is over the line). Bugg is necessary. Going off of a recent comment (Kane Cornes), Bugg is even still in the head of retired players. This kid is breaking people down mentally, Cotchin might not recover from this.

First on our tackles ladder though.

Rance 3 weeks down to 2 with early plea for his weak act on Watts.  The MRP criteria should be amended to add an extra penalty for cowardice.

That's the endeavour I can't fault. His pressure around the ball is terrific. His deficiencies appear when he has ball in hand.

I like Buggs intensity, tackling but he is a little sloppy. I like him getting under the skin of opponents but the fine he copped is fair. Melee involvement is one thing and flying the flag is fine but pushing at an injured player hobbling around in the hands of trainers is not particularly tough. Do not like this one little bit.

Yep. Bugg is one of those players I would absolutely loathe at another club. Pesky, trash-talking show pony that annoys the hell out of the opposition.

That said, he wears a demon jumper, so he's great.

More than depth....the new breed of the Roos' vision.

Tough, unrelenting, fit, fast.

Gets to many, many contests and can spread too.

I know you didn't question his endeavour, but I reckon he'll get better in the skill department.

Jon Ralph won't be happy with that after he continually had a crack at him last night.  Should have gotten 10 weeks based on his tweets.

Bugg, Kennedy, Jones, Vince and (best for last) Viney are the best things to happen to MFC for a decade.

Bugg can turn it over but god I love how much of a pest he is.  Got in Cotchins head something fantastic last night.

Bring it MFC.

Rance got 2 for smacking Watts... About right I think and from what I read vince was not cited.

Rance got three, a guilty plea will downgrade it to two.

What did Cornes say about him? Got a link?

Love what Bugg brings, we have needed a [censored] like this for years.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
