Why are players being suspended and Adelaide copped nothing? 
 

What will Spargos penalty be if he is not playing?

Absolutely guaranteed to get a week after the Essendon player got a week. I know they're young, but this is just plain idiotic.

Understand but they will be suspending players all year if they are this strict.

The reason they're being strict is to appease the state governments. They want to show that they should be easily allowed to travel between states when they're still closed. If they keep breaching the rules and someone returns a positive test, some states won't allow teams to travel there.

Carlton fan Andy Maher insisting that Pickett be suspended.

Anyone know how they broke the restrictions?

  • Demonland changed the title to Pickett & Spargo Break COVID Restrictions

No Kozzie tomorrow then.. there goes a lot of excitement for the game.

Would like to know what they did exactly, but I am about an  inch away from unleashing some references to '1984'.

Visited a friend apparently.

where does the afl get their intel........have they set up a gestapo or just rely in informers?

Tongue in cheek, the conspiracy theory goes like this:

Ed Bagwire was starting to worry about Melbourne FC winning against Carlscum on Saturday, particularly after The Filth only received two points from their drawn game against the Tigers. If the MFC win, the they will receive four points from that match against Carlscum. That would assist the Dees to end the season (at this point) ahead of The Filth. Comprehensively, by fair means or foul, Ed has decided to wield his influence with the AFL (granted to no other, by the way) as a means of reducing the Dees' chances of beating Carlscum.

Using his immense footballing intellect, Ed considered that Spargo and Pickett could be the Dees' main avenues to goal. He thus created the rumour for someone else to follow-up that the Covid19 restrictions had been breached by such potentially unstoppable young players in the Dees' lineup. He awaits the outcome. Meanwhile, he will set to work on other rival clubs in some manner equally as anonymous.

It has to be done. Given no social distancing at training or games is possible, all it takes is one positive test to shut down the entire competition. 
 

Say Pickett gets infected by the friend he visited. He tests positive and therefore everyone at the club and the opposition side we played have to be tested and quarantine. That means two teams at a minimum are out of the competition for up to two weeks, which means virtually the entire AFL has to close for two weeks. It’s a disastrous situation and I agree with the AFL’s hard line.

Self reported apparently.

I am sure the Coach is in a good mood about it.

Most players are not Einsteins, unfortunately they are not even Pavlovian Dogs.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
