Andrew Pugsley
Andrew Pugsley (born 25 July 1978) is a former Australian rules footballer who played for Collingwood in the Australian Football League (AFL). Pugsley came to Collingwood as a rookie late in 1996 from Scoreseby via Eastern Ranges. His versatility as a forward, where he could play tall and small were valued, and his form in the reserves in 1997 as a goalkicker saw him elevated to the senior list for 1998. He kicked two goals on debut, his first two kicks resulted in goals, a very rare achievement. He played only five games, before being delisted from the club at the end of 98. His final game was the Round 8 Queens Birthday loss to Melbourne where he performed admirably in a losing side taking a strong last quarter mark, however it was not enough to hold his place and he was delisted from the club at the end of 1998. He sought a further opportunity at Richmond Richmond most often refers to: * Richmond, Virginia, the capital of Virginia, United States * Richmond, London, a pa ...

Australian Rules Football
Australian football, also called Australian rules football or Aussie rules, or more simply football or footy, is a contact sport played between two teams of 18 players on an oval field, often a modified cricket ground. Points are scored by kicking the oval ball between the central goal posts (worth six points), or between a central and outer post (worth one point, otherwise known as a "behind"). During general play, players may position themselves anywhere on the field and use any part of their bodies to move the ball. The primary methods are kicking, handballing and running with the ball. There are rules on how the ball can be handled; for example, players running with the ball must intermittently bounce or touch it on the ground. Throwing the ball is not allowed, and players must not get caught holding the ball. A distinctive feature of the game is the mark, where players anywhere on the field who catch the ball from a kick (with specific conditions) are awarded unimped ...
