    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.

    • 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.
