    They should let us train on the G from now on, as a precautionary measure. That way the players will also get used to the empty stands. Win Win.

    Sorry, 'DAG'.   Its a bad habit I have,  of quoting someone instead of  just commenting,  to it.

    A habit due to not understanding the quote processes, at the time, back then.  Now its an auto habit, I need to try to change.

    Just make sure Rupert,  is facing up,  'dw'.

    I'm surprised he doesn't have his image on the pound note, buy now.

    I suppose One could always go direct to Bolts page and tear away. 

    That would be the obvious alternative to rupert.

    If I'm going to Bolt's page I'm hoping there is hand sanitiser available.

    Considering the US went from a handful of cases and Trump bragging about how he has it under control, to 1,000+ cases in under a week, I’d say they’re probably making the right call.

    Jesus we have 12 cases in Victoria. TWELVE in 5 million. The hysteria is ridiculous.

    Apparently schools are likely to be shut down from next week... you think Corona is bad, just wait until parents can’t send their devil children to school or go to work themselves. Welcome to the end of the world!

    Player testing will be expedited to keep season intact. 

     The standard time for a person being tested for COVID-19 and receiving the results is five days. But AFL players are expected to receive their findings sooner. 

    Plan to expedite player testing to keep season intact

    It shouldn't be any different to any other person.

    Being self employed I can't afford the wait time either.

    No special treatment for the AFL...

    They had 12 cases in Italy at one point as well. Now it's over 10K, with hundreds dead.

    Isolation and reducing contact is the only way of reducing infections. There is no cure, no vaccine.

    Just saying.

    As to the wisdom of reducing contact, isolation, and shutting things down (also as to how infectious this is):

    "New York officials traced more than 50 coronavirus cases back to one attorney"

    "Just two days after the man's positive results, on March 4, his 20-year-old son, a student at New York's Yeshiva University, also tested positive. The wife and 14-year-old daughter of the attorney both also tested positive on the same day. So did the neighbor who drove him to the hospital. And a friend of the attorney. The friend's wife, two sons and daughter tested positive that day too. The day after, on March 5, eight other people connected to the attorney tested positive for the virus."

    etc.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
