Looks like Tom has been told services no longer required
 

 

 

glad to see him go but disappointed we didnt make a trade for him- would get a game at carlton

Best of luck to Buggy. 

He was going okay until he punched Mills. He was never the same player, or probably rated as highly by the FD, ever again. 

 

2017 was a great year for Tom that ended with the game against the Swans.

Thought he would make it back in 2018 but it was not to be.

Thanks Tom.

you're disappointed in missing out on a pick in the 60's ? He has no trade value

Thanks Tom, Im not sure the club gave you quite the protection you needed after the Mills incident. But he was always a heart and soul player. Crap shot at goal lol...but a heart and souler.

a pick in the 60s would still help

Agreed 100%...

Fringe player who killed any momentum to cement his spot with a stupid punch.  Likely to be picked up as a free agent. 

Thanks Tom, was hoping you could get more games, but it didn’t happen. 

You made Hardware Lane...


He made an AFL list and played a few games, which is more that most of us here can boast.

Sorry that he didn't make the grade with us.

I think these days the clubs see if any interest and if none then delist. They all do it.

thanks buggy. Unfortunately hung up to dry for his hit on Mills. Not the first player to have a brain fade. Some players Goodwin just doesn't favour and Bugg was one of them. 

Says a bit about the club when players of Bugg's quality are delisted in their prime.  An excellent runner and tough too.  I expect him to get picked up.

Good to see him exiting with class.  no more junior or beamer debacles


He was going well until that game against the Swans. Good luck Tom i finding a new home.

We must have a few coming in.

It shows how one brain fade can knock you on your arze in any walk of life.

Gaff and Bugg basically threw similar punches (though Gaff's connected way worse based on the severity of injury inflicted) but sadly for Tom, Gaff is an A grader at his best while Tom was always depth/a role player.

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
