over an hour ago the AFL verdict was imminent according to Tom Morris so ...

Damn. If you said Tom Browne they would have been cleared to play.

    You can argue about their risks of exposure be it high or low but the fact of the matter is is that by breaking the rules, draconian or otherwise, they potentially put the whole team at "risk of having to forfeit" due to potential exposure.

    When did the club know about this?

    Were the boys at training today? Have they mixed with others since breaching? Doesn't Kozzy live with Jets? Does he now risk having to pull out because of second hand exposure. It's a potential minefield.

    I actually believe the risk is low but if the AFL and the state governments want to get tough they could wield a hammer here. I don't think they will but if any team was going to get [censored] it would be us.

    There’s nothing on the AFL site about it. Until we know how they were supposed to have breached regs, we can’t assume that it warrants a suspension.

    As if our forward line wasn’t [censored] enough! Now we lose Pickett... fmd.

    Reckon Carlton will win tomorrow. Just a feeling. Probably mfcss.

    Have a feeling Lockhart isn't fit. I couldn't believe he was out of the 22, let alone not an emergency.

    None of the remaining emergencies are a great fit however.

    Very disappointing.

    Whether you agree with the current COVID rules or not, they are there and the players know they are supposed to adhere to them.

    They may or may not. Either way, it won't be because Kozzie (a 1 game veteran) isn't playing.

    I heard he’s carrying a bit of an injury. I hope Bedford takes K-Picks spot.

    Is it possible that Hannan might get a run?

    His stupidity has cost him a place along side uncle Nev for his big milestone game.

    Looks like we have no choice but to delist Spargo as a result.

    Could not give a fat rats Clacker about Spargo, But Kossie on the other hand is potentially a big loss!

    Forgive my lack of awareness but what are the rules for players? Zero contact with any of the public aside from other players and coaches?

    Exactly. No point wrist slashing yet.

    Good shout, haven’t heard anything about Hannan but if he’s fit I’d be keen to see him back in the line up.

    no contact outside your approved bubble. Every players living environment has been approved.

    Not sure if they are even allowed out for food shopping

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
