The Moreton Bay Buggers have been a part of the Frisbee landscape in Brisbane for a decade.
As a Brisbane Premier League team the Buggers are now in their 5th year of existence. In those five years many players have proudly and enthusiastically worn the Bugger black, blue and red.
I've dug into the vault and found the team lists from the last five years. I'm missing the original team list as Rueben Berg was the captain and mastermind behind the Bugs entrance into the competition. The lists and number of season played by each Bugger can be found on the right side of the page.
Many players have come and gone from the Bugger teams. Some have moved away from the competition and play in other leagues. Some have thrown their last disc in anger and now only participate through the email list. Young men who learned their frisbee craft with the big bug on their chest are spread across the BPL teams including 2 other club captains.
The MBB club has always been active in bringing new players to the competition. Over 30 genuine new-to-frisbee rookies have had their first taste of organised competitive ultimate at the club.
It is worth mentioning the following long serving sons of the Moreton Bay Buggers for their efforts over the years.

It is a proud history full of excellent players, great teams and good frisbee times. I'm hopeful for many more.
Up the Buggers.

Great post and nice additions down the side. Your lost of past results certainly looks better than the one on the Dojo list. They are still going on about some playe they won over 4 years ago.
Damn Mike that must've taken friggin forever to put together! I must say I never really figured you for the history buff, but there I go - wrong again. Nice stuff.
Now you need to take it all the way back and include the rosters from all the MBB Nationals teams...Strewth then you'd own the captains of all the BPL teams!!!
BTW Wetnose I'd have a comeback for that comment of yours if only you made any sense. Playe? I just hope you're not doing DIY calligraphy on your wedding place cards...
Love the BPL history boys.
Its part of what makes our competition great.
If you include the nationals teams I think its only the Passion team that doesn't have a few Bugs dressed up in other colours running around.
