Poor choice by Harley and no doubt will suffer the consequences but a lot on here showing little knowledge on how addictions work and how hard they are to control.

    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. 
     

    Support you 100%

    It's a Vic thing and we may only be in lockdown for 2 more weeks - but with relaxed integrations the numbers will increase and we'll be back in lockdown again.

    Of course he doesn’t. It’s all about him getting dirt published.

    I was just thinking the same thing, people never stop being addicts they are only recovering/recovered addicts. 

    It’s still a very disappointing situation to see Harley find himself in, there are a number of ways to deal with this so it’ll be interesting to see which way we go. I wonder if he was with any other players prior to him leaving the hub, if so why didn’t they stop him? 

    Second question is Harley’s partner and kid up there with him?

    Apparently in the hub with him. Or now they are and he isn't.

    Ralphy just cleared up the Bennell issue he evidently confused the Maroochydore hub for pub an easy thing to do after a few schooners.

    Yeah sounds like he started drinking in the hub. Ran out of booze, so went drinking outside the hub. 
    A bad look all around.

    I thought he wasn't suppose to drink he was not allowed. Poor form.

    Could someone please explain how the hub rules work...

    I was listening to SEN the last week and one of the players was out at a coffee shop getting his regular fix.

    Wish I could remember who it was....coffee or beer, either way you're not in a hub.

    Regularly frequents the coffee shop.

    Surely this is not how it works?

    He made a poor choice - we need to support him and give him a chance to redeem himself. I reckon they give him a contract with a clause if he breaks it again. We all deal with stress differently give the bloke a chance.

    Nope he has had his chances we extended  a life line when nobody else did he ignored it.  He is the problem unfortunetly he probably doesn't se it because he can play footy so sad.

    I say we move on

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
