    tiredness
    Less common symptoms:
    aches and pains
    sore throat
    diarrhoea
    conjunctivitis

    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.

    Understand players are not robots  but do we still have a lack of strong culture or leaders within our club??

    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?

    Wouldn't be surprised to see Oscar in and Harmes back up the ground...

    ...but ANB has just been named in the 22.

    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?

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
