Summary: It was an up and down year for Bugg who played a number of defensive roles on both opposition midfielders and small forwards.

Bugg had an injury-free season and averaged 16 disposals, his best effort since 2012.

Pat On The Back: It would have been easy for Bugg to drop his head after playing reserves but he worked hard on his game and finished the year strongly.

What They Said: “Tomas worked hard in the NEAFL and certainly earned his re-call after some strong performances” - GIANTS Coach Leon Cameron.

Look Ahead: Bugg has now played 65 games in the AFL and is getting more and more experienced each year. Next season Bugg will aim to cement a place in the seniors.
