Bulldogs will not lose, and he has not been picked for months. His season is over,  why be so judgmental. 

Because of precedence, it really isn't that hard to grasp.

UNEXEPTIBLE  l am sorry  NO EXCUSES    How many chances does someone need.  Rules are there for  good reasons. 

Bennell should know better.    Something is not connecting with the culture that the MFC has around  them.

Financially this will cost us and seriously Harley just when I thought you'd got yourself together you did this. I don't care if he was told he won't be offered another deal. He is still a melbourne listed player until either tonight if the dogs win or if the miracle occurs when our finals campaign is over. 

Ugh!

If he hasn't come back into the hub then there should be no financial penalty for the club. 

The problem isn't leaving the hub, anyone is free to do that any time (the first 14 days notwithstanding), they just can't come back in.

I don't think we should wait for the facts, I think we should hang the bloke and then later on see what it is all about.

What if he had been told he is not playing again this year and maybe even will be delisted?

So, what if thinking he is finished, he goes out for some drinks, leaving the hub and not intending to return to it, which he hasn't.

In that scenario where is the Covid breach?

Maybe that is not the scenario, but can we wait until we know exactly what happened, before we have him tried, convicted and retired from the AFL.

Please explain? 

Don't see you going off at the afghani families that deliberately broke the rules and went to each others houses 

No you don’t because I don’t post my every inner thought on Demonland. 

Just because you don’t deem this disease deadly enough for your liking, doesn’t mean that it isn’t extremely contagious, very invasive and does a lot of damage (even without death), and that thousands of cases would see our health care system collapse to the point where loads of people would die for lots of reasons, not just Covid. 

People breaching the rules are selfish flogs. People who think they can visit their family because they feel like it, are selfish and are costing the rest of us our freedom.

We all have to make sacrifices and do the right thing so that we can ensure our health care system can stay as good as it is, and so that we can save the lives of many elderly people, who you may not care about, but who all have families who love them and want them alive.

Im guessing you're a person who hasn't lost their job due to the lockdown and hasn't lost a loved one to suicide this year?

All good and well to say case numbers/death rates are down but this indirectly hits people massively. You'll wake up when you lose a dear friend close to you who is at wits end due to these restrictions

You are wrong on both counts. I lost my job and my husband’s business is surviving on jobkeeper and is 70% down. 
I had a friend attempt to commit suicide and I had a friend who works in a hospital who got this thing and nearly died and is still suffering the after effects. I also have a friend who’s 4 year old son has advanced cancer and he can’t go see him because only one parent is allowed to visit. 

So don’t tell me who has and hasn’t suffered because of this. We are all struggling. We are all suffering. 
I am very sorry to hear about your friend, and the pain you feel is no different to the pain 700+ families have felt this year when one of their loved ones have died from this disease. 

This is awful for everyone involved. To rant about misleading statistics and facts that suit your personal narrative doesn’t help to make it easier or better.

I was going to respond to the poster and then restrained myself. You should do the same Jaded. Starve of oxygen.

Probably best to hold off on the crucifixion until the facts are known. 

U mean DONT do what the media do Ethan. 
 

That’s a novel idea. 
 

Can’t stand the media as facts are not a consideration most of the time, just put 2 and 2 together and come up with wth 5.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    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.
