Tommy Bugg on report

[Rod Grinter Riot Squad 5,654]

Have never really warmed to Bugg, but am not going to hang him on one offence. 

 

That said, he deserves at least six weeks for the biggest dog act I have seen since Hall belted Staker. Disgusted with him.

Well Mickey..did you see the provocation? didya ? 

Bugg did stuff up yes ? He collected Mills a beauty...most deserved.  I bet most folk couldn't whack a bloke as well if they TRIED !! 

It just happened ffs. The Spanish Inquisition probably isn't required ?

If you think Mills deserved than you have no idea.

You've gone from 'he didn't mean to and couldn't do it again if he tried' to 'Mills deserved it.'

I'm done arguing with you. Everyone can see it but you. Have a think about that

Gee.. someone clocked on the chin...goes down. Out for the game 

Must be weak as plss !!! 

Good get BB 

We could have had the moral high ground 

May be rectified by Buggs statement.

Admits stupid act unstated that head is sacrosanct 

Apologised to player and family and those in the club.

The cheap shot is not the way we want to be defined, I'm happy with that.

I think you did just that with your next sentence.

Disagree.

 

he deserves what he will get, about six weeks. He won't disagree that this will be fair, no sane person would. Am not calling for us to fire him or to never give him a chance to play for the red and blue again.

WTF are you on about?

Even if Mills was annoying him, Bugg does that to every player he goes near on a field. If he can't deal with whatever Mills was doing without resorting to punching him in the head, he shouldn't play AFL again.

That was a dog act and he deserves 4+ weeks.

[Deefiant 441]

He seemed remorseful in his interview, his reaction to me looks like he knew it was a bloody stupid thing to do. Guessing he will cop 6 weeks. It will be interesting to see how he responds to his holiday.

My Swans mate reckons Bugg should get Tony Abbott to give him a character reference!

That would work like a charm - not!

Bugg is possibly the dumbest player Melbournes had for the past decade . I don't think I've ever seen such a dog act from a Melbourne player in my life. Would not be dissapointed if he was delisted at seasons end.

I hear Cardinal Pell will be in Melbourne for some business. Maybe he could swing by the Tribunal to speak some words of Bugg.

Rod Grinter did that every week. 

Times have sure changed. 

Bugg will do his time and earn his spot back in the side

When you play the bad guy like Bugg does, it will never end well. You can take the Bugg out of Gembrook but Caulfield Grammar can't take the Gembrook out of the Bugg.

Worse than the Houli hit.

Which one of you lame rrses who threatened to boo Houli will claim this is not as bad?

Bit difference saying this to saying BS like he did it every week, and in '88 the ball was very much in play.

 

unlike you, he wasn't a sniper.

Every week? What bs. Wannabe excuse.

So what's the point of relevance to Grinter? Like comparing apples and oranges.

Bugg should get 5-6.  Weeks where we needed him. That's all that matters.

The point is. Rod did his time and is still revered at the club

Tom Bugg will do his time, but many want his tenure terminated

times have changed a lot

Balls used to belt people every week. It was part of his game

he could also play.

Injuries are the major factor. We have been struck down severely this season. Far more than most. 

But depth is also an issue. I have found it bizarre reading comments regarding how much "depth" WE actually have. We certainly don't have enough. It definitely doesn't require an internal review. Mahoney and T. Viney are doing an excellent job. It's just where we are at during this building process. We must remember we have a young a list, and a very promising one at that. We have a good future ahead and I am 100% confident with the current support staff (and that's saying something regarding previous staff members).

Rod did not do that "every week". To claim so is a simply a romantic lie.

Yes, it is not the 80's. Apart from that your post is bordering on an excuse for Bugg's action WYL.

Stop looking for comparisons that are irrelevant except for the club and the game. Otherwise we'll be going back needlessly 150 years to find a 'winner'

We need Bugg. He'll be out maybe 4-6 weeks for nadda.

Or is it now ok for us to get a reference from the pm or a cleb?

I am not excusing Bugg's actions at all

4-5 weeks is what he will get

But i don't want to sack him and burn him at the stake either

You just don't want to remember. 

Most games in the 80's had a single camera coverage provided by the TV News crews. 

Players belted each other all the time off the ball, some got caught

bugg is fool for what he did, but don't change history
