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.

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. "

James Jordon (JJ), don’t remember him, did ever play a game?

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.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
