Thank god for the new rules.

Honestly a there’s high chance Bugg’s replacement would be better than him anyway.

Does anyone think that these other guys training and desperate to get on an AFL list showed more than Bugg and both parties decided to part ways?

Bugg very well may have lost the passion and thought with the new rules it would be better to let a youn guy get his chance rather than wating a year.

Two bigger stories at hand.
WTF is the world coming to, when these social influencer w***ers can make such a good living off gullible, empty lived indiscriminants, and HTF does one make an overnight fortune from managing said w***ers?

The second is more relevant on here. Why is the list management group so dead set determined to add "mature" insurance to the list. Gibbons is a bit older,
but, Fisher, Palmer and Blakey are surely capable of offering sufficient "back up" for what will more than likely constitute a handful of games. Cottrell is an athletic machine, and I haven't seen enough to comment on his footy prowess, but if we have persisted this far into the training block, they must see something. Hate the term, but enough of the deckchairs looking for that extra pay day before slipping in to oblivion. The youngsters 18-21 at least have some scope to step up and become serious players, while adding that same depth insurance.

Surely any disharmony in the group would come from those players aware that they do not have a long term future at the club going half arsed at their work and negatively influencing the group dynamic. We have enough senior players in combination with young men entering fourth and third seasons in the competition. Give me a hungry kid anyday (given what we already have).

I have seen enough of Fisher and Gibbons to add them immediately to fill the two actual vacancies. Happy if the club is interested enough in Cottrell. Surely sooner is better than waiting for "deadlines" With Pickett down and some possibility of out, Fasolo's indiscretions delaying his season, and now Bugg gone, we
have a shortage of high half forward, crumber, pinch hitting mid types, it doesn't take Einstein to see we have the replacements already in the wings.

Quite a strange way to look at things, so one sided that is.

If we dont have any 'bad news' stories in the next 7 weeks that would be a great result.

And to think the trots were part of evening television in the seventies on the penthouse club. Bill Collins and Mary hardy (and others) did some pretty decent work on that show if memory serves.

We use to sit and watch it as a family, good entertainment and when the races came on we'd put 20 cents in the middle and pick a horse.

Come on people.

How many of you had him in your best 22?

What can you do?

The bloke doesn’t want to footy anymore. Plenty of other footballers out there. It’s up to the club now to fill the available spots with good prospects.

Admittedly, I thought he was capable of adding something we lacked.
While he's entitled to pursue whats in his best legitimate interests, I think its poor form committing to to a list spot then declaring otherwise shortly afterwards.
Any way, we move on.

While there may be bigger money in todays social media climate, who knows how long that will last....and its gone....
My Space anyone?
And you know what they say easy come easy go...so much more prevalant in todays fast money mentality.

In 5 yrs time who is going to give a frig you posted 25 selfies a day, on the other hand, I would still buy you a beer 10yrs later if you had played 5 seasons of AFL (would bump it to Crownies if you were a blue bagger)
