Just Great. FFS Can’t these players read and understand situations??

You mean like isolating for 14 days, oh no, it didn't actually say that did it

Never made a mistake in your life right Mr Infallible

Kozzy and Spargo just learnt a lesson the hard way

    Breach??? 
    16 Crows players all breached the rules as well as the coaches. Their excuse? None, “we got it wrong”.  And their punishment?? Be more careful next time.  It’s ridiculous 

    Hahaha this..

    You know Vic bias and all.. ?‍♂️

    GO AWAY. 

     

    Your answers are the same, regardless of what people leave on here

    Players would have been given strict guidelines to adhere to  

    Don’t Visit Friends  That is it...

    Not difficult is it?

    It has nothing to do with me

    BUT DON’T YOU GO ANYWHERE NEAR THEM....

    Aside from covid issues, I hope the fags were just curiosity or temporary lapse. I bought a pack for the first time in 5 years last night after too many beers. Had a few predictably digusting puffs and then through the packet in the bin. Bloody waste of money.

    Spargo being a regular smoker might explain why he doesn't have the energy to kick it 30m!

    Sorry mate, I thought it would be obvious that I was taking the pi$$....although his growth appears to have been stunted doesn’t it.

    Having said that, I’m glad you made that decision. A wise one indeed...

    Smoking is now solely the domain of the super-wealthy.

     

    Which is Fantastic. However if you're in a European country where it's unfortunately dirt cheap, the smoking is ubiquitous and just dirty to have to walk through!

    Gotta hand it to Spargo.

    Puts in a round 1 performance at a level not seen since Isaac Weetra circa 2008.

    Then coerced our premier albeit young small forward into attending a house party via an Uber during pandemic -  hence robbing us a key piece of the puzzle in somehow jagging our first win in 11 months.

    I don’t think we’ll be seeing young Charles for a number of weeks.

    So you're saying multimillion dollar industries are somehow more important than me when it comes to making laws to protect the citizens from Covid 19!

    Absolutely true.

    We'll have to call him 009 if he's conspiring to undermine and usurp Kozi for his position. ?

    I would put Lockhart or Sparrow in as replacement.

    Unfortunately you’re not a multimillion $$$ industry/game (lol) supporting thousands of people ww.

    So it follows that Rio Tinto's detonation of ancient caves is acceptable because they're a multimillion $$$ industry and the laws that protect them are not to be confused with the laws that protect individuals from desecration of their spiritual sites.

    Pickett should serve another club week’s suspension in the practice match format, teach him from a young age not following proper AFL protocol is unacceptable.

    Is the whole Geelong team going to be suspended because the they broke social distances rules after their first two goals against the Hawks tonight?

    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. 

    The outrage on here from my fellow Dees supporters is outrageous. The protocols have been put in place to keep all of us safe for all of society’s good, and we have hugely benefited from this having one of the lowest infection rates in the world. 
     

    This goes way beyond our parochial AFL interests, this is for the benefit of our whole society and we should be all immensely grateful that our governments have stepped up to the mark in a way the governments of the US and UK have not. 
     

    The self interest of our football team is minuscule by comparison, but we should all be proud that our club has done the responsible thing and self reported, in spite of several moronic comments on here along the lines “here we go again the MFC being insipid compared to the hard heads of the competition”. 
     

    Social media is so incredibly stupid sometimes. Our supporters should be proud of our values, but sadly some are not.

    What a mess, a really young team selected (which is a risk) and then players being silly can derail all the work the coaching staff have put into the planning for the first game.

    I’m even madder now that because of Kosi’s stupidity I now have to watch ANB stink it up. Bloody hell!

    They are paid a huge salary that we contribute to so follow the simple f k n rules that have been put in place for you to continue to work.

    The worst part is when we lose, by a goal when ANB misses a set shot after the siren everyone will blame Kossi.

    I understand but i think it’s ridiculous. 

    The players aren’t even allowed to take their kids to the park.

    Many people throwing barbs when I dare say most would have been the first to whinge about being in isolation

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
