Having watched matches to date plus AFLW I was looking forward to watching Dees prime time only to discover its live on NSW only.

And guess what 

here in Murmungee I get My to cover from Shepparton.

My nearest neighbour across the paddock gets us coverage from Albury.

 

Hes a Collngwood supporter so no joy.

it would cost me too many beers to watch the whole game with him

Derwyane is unlistenable. Every action, no matter how ordinary or basic, is described using a superlative.

We are getting a bit maudlin aren't we guys?

Alright to get back on track, how about the following. With the Dees 3-0 for the first time in yonks, if the Dees knock off Geelong to make it 4-0, we have a competition on this thread to find the best image with 4 bananas in it. If the unthinkable happens and the Dees lose, we have a competition on this thread to find the best image on the theme of "Hells Bells". If it is a draw, Redleg gets to make the call about what happens.

What say you all?

We will be lucky to be vaccinated by finals time.

We are always careful to sanitise and social distance. Masks when too close to unfamiliar people.

its all a debacle, just as likely to get hit by a bus as die from Covid.

i want front line workers and incoming tourists etc from overseas to be inoculated, tested and quarantined if required.

Me too but I reckon you will get the vaccine by June. I am hanging loose till then. I just stay away from crowds. Have no confidence on the Vic government controlling things when Aussies start returning from OS.

Its the most remarkable thing that Vic community has been so compliant with instructions, and on my trip to the footy round  one everyone was cautious. Still not really congested . Stay away from public transport and sit near friends you know are symptom free.

i think the vaccine doesn't stop the spread just limits the damage.

keep fit and be less vulnerable. I fear what might happen when winter hits an people are more vulnerable to cold and flue.

Getting my normal flu injection next week. Re  covid injections our clinic told us last week they have no idea when they will receive the vaccine or how much. A bloody shambles! Re the first game at 50% capacity and only 23k there you can spread out,  at 75+ that will be a lot harder. Good luck l will look for you in the crowd!!!!!!

Good news for one of my favourites.

"MELBOURNE rookie and surprise free agent James Jordon is poised to clinch a new deal with the Demons just four months after being delisted by the club. "

4 to this point.

I see we have a New President!

But it should have been Uncle Bitters in the President role as his diplomacy skills would have us at number one AFL club in no time.

Thanks for the positive post re Round1 DPositive and the Covid plan response from the Melbourne crowd. 
 

However as I Have pointed out the likelihood of flu catchment is much much less due to the general population adhering to the Covid safe practices. Try just had been proved by the stats from 2020.

As usual OD your comments re Covid Vaccine and the crowds at the footy Are  at  best Flippant and worst inaccurate and misleading.

1. The total  numbers in the crowd Or the % of Crowd allowed  in the ground are totally irrelevant to the ability of Each person to move about freely.

Your ticket  has your seat no. and you are in a Zone and restricted to that area to purchase food and/ or go to the bathroom.

You cannot waltz freely  into another Zone to speak to an Old crony Or even your Mother in Law!

2. Covid Vaccine 

The provision of Venues for Vaccine In Australia is a Specialised operation with mist GO's not able to handle the rollout in these initial stages.

You asking your GP When you can have the vaccine is basically irrelevant if he is not one of the designated venues for receiving  the jab. 
It is not a shambles that you can't have it at your local GP clinic if they are unable to or are not a Clinic  dispensing the vaccine.

The procedure is to go to the Aust Govt Health website and do the CHECKER test to ascertain what priority you are. Ie 1a, 1b or 2a etc.

Once you get this answer then you can put your postcode in The box and about 5/6 choices Of locations nearby will be on the screen where you may Book for the vaccine once that Category has commenced.

( 1 a and 1 b are priority so far but 2a is getting nearer ).
 

In the future the Covid Vaccine procedure May become like the flu vaccine but we don't know really at this stage.
 

So waiting forvthe vaccine rollout fir your clinic is probably in vain and frankly if you are in either 1a or 1 b category you should be considering getting the jab ASAP for your own safety and your families as well. There is also a second booster to get within 2/3 weeKs or  12 weeks Depending upon which Vaccine either Sfizer or Astra Veneca you received.

It is not the GP's  real role in this procedure to notify all their patients that the vaccine is available unless they belong to a Clinic  that is approved for dispensing the rollout.
 

Hopefully that updates  generally your knowledge on both Covid plans and vaccine availability.

Thanks for the " how to suck Eggs" lesson. 

We are not supposed to discuss politics on Demonland so I won't bother with a two page rebuttal.

Reckon bitters would bring out the deviant and degenerate vote. It’s a surprisingly large constituency I understand.

  • NON-MFC: Round 12

    Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
