COVID-19 affects different people in different ways. Most infected people will develop mild to moderate illness and recover without hospitalization.

Most common symptoms:
fever
dry cough
tiredness
Less common symptoms:
aches and pains
sore throat
diarrhoea
conjunctivitis
headache
loss of taste or smell
a rash on skin, or discolouration of fingers or toes
 
Serious symptoms:
 
difficulty breathing or shortness of breath
chest pain or pressure
loss of speech or movement
 
===========================================================
Gastroenteritis, on the other hand, attacks your intestines, causing signs and symptoms, such as:
  • Watery, usually nonbloody diarrhea — bloody diarrhea usually means you have a different, more severe infection.
  • Abdominal cramps and pain.
  • Nausea, vomiting or both.
  • Occasional muscle aches or headache.
  • Low-grade fever.

I’m massively disappointed in Kozzie for breaking the COVID rules, given the length of tie between matches you’d think players would be extra careful. 

I’m hoping that Bedford is the one the bring in for him but I could see ANB being preferred with  some more runs on the board. Both had pretty poor games vs WC. 

Can’t see it happening but maybe as another option AvB, sounded like he and Bennell were at similar stages but it’d be a risk to have two debutants and two players who’ve barely played footy in the last 18-24 months.

Should also be suspended for a week for not using proper hygiene protocols.

Will we have special dispensation to bring someone in that’s outside the listed 26?

Say O Mac who could release Smith as a forward or Lockhart who could potentially play as a small forward?

I was thinking why not play Vanders. He's in our best 22 and can play forward or midfield.

He’d had a good pre-season before the broken foot as well. Personally I’d be happy but would we be taking too big a risk with two newbs and two returning from long term injuries?

i hope Max tore strips off the pair of little ***** for breaking the rules. now we have to endure more of ANB again aaaarrrggghhh!

I hope not. Kossie is just a kid. He will learn from it and is probably devastated to not only miss the game but also Nev’s 150! Don’t like the ANB in, would have preferred Bedford or Lockhart. I thought Locky played well in round 1 and Bedford showed glimpses especially in the last quarter as he came to grips with the tempo.

Disappointed to see ANB in the side would prefer Bedford. I can see Hunt and ANB making way for Kossie and Vanders next week.

I hope Goody takes ANB aside and makes it clear to him that this is a lucky occurrence, he should not be in the team based on the WC game he's been given this lucky shot to prove himself. I'd be telling him there are a bunch of players chomping at the bit to get out there, so make it hard on the selection committee to not pick him.

Who plays on the tall Blue forwards? Casboult, McKay and McGovern.  May and ... ??? 
Lever is best as a 3rd defender to intercept and not in a key post. Joel Smith also undersized imo

Lever is 195cm and Smith plays about 2m can jump over tall buildings if he doesn’t get hurt!

Luke Jackson to play as a defender tomorrow.

Sauce - Gerard Healy who know Jones well.

My question is why not just play O Mac on one of Casboult, McKay or McGovern?

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
