Bugg fitted in well and often proved a pest to those whose job it was to stop. Filled his role well without being outstanding.

I'm underwhelmed by Bugg. I can see some value to him as a genuine tagger negating the opposition's best player, but his disposal is so bad that he will never be part of an AFL finals side. Yet another recruit who will be a list clogger by the end of his contract.

You can't have all stars in your finals side.....You need some foot soldiers ....Bugg is a good fot soldier

I actually thought that Bugg did have a few games where he was outstanding and made a real impact.  His biggest problem was that his form was a bit hot and cold at times.

He has a good knack of kicking goals and I do like his toughness, ability to hassle and get under opposition players skin - all valuable attributes.

He is the one player I find hard to compliment, and at the same time I have a hard time knocking him.

I really just don't know if he is going to get better, or remain the same. I guess we will find out over the remainder of his contract and then call it then.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
