There is a strong likelihood Richmond will play Melbourne this weekend with the QLD govt playing hardball on the Tigers flying into QLD to play West Coast. Would leave West Coast to play Sydney

@AFLcomau

We sure do attract them....

Yep,  it's a season like no other and will not surprise me if it happens such is the severity of Victoria's infection spike.

Gives us another opportunity to blame the footy gods when we play Richmond back into form lol.

Perfect timing for the tigers to get back into form.

Also we have our schedule change again, something everything week when it comes to us

THE ROUND five fixture is set to be flipped on its head with West Coast's clash with Richmond on Thursday night expected to be postponed due to a hardline stance from the Queensland government. 

Due to the outbreak of COVID-19 in Victoria, Queensland health officials have held fears of the Tigers flying in to play the Eagles on Thursday night. 

It would leave the West Coast-Richmond clash and fixtured Sydney-Melbourne game for Sunday to be split.  

AFL.com.au understands people at the Tigers were on Monday morning preparing to tackle Melbourne this weekend, while officials at West Coast were expecting to play Sydney.

We were lucki to win our intraclub game last weekend so does it really matter who we play next??????

Bring it on! They are out of form and injured. We should match up well against them and get a win.

I'm guessing we'll play Richmond on the Sunday, and Sydney will be moved to the Thursday night to play West Coast.

Possibly throws Sydney's preparation out of whack as they've been preparing for a Sunday match rather than Thursday, but they at least played last Thursday and so get a full week's rest compared to us, we'd get 5 days with no notice.

Tigers have been poor this year. Have watched all their games, and they've lacked cohesion going forward, similar to us. That said, we've been bottom four 18 months at this point, so with the stars they have in Martin and Lynch, I'd expect them to get themselves up to beat us.

This season is  a goddamn circus, and we, as the resident clowns, fit right in. 

We are the AFL's [censored].

And we just sit back and cop it in the ream end so easily.

Despite the spike in Victoria, total over reaction by Qld government.

The tigers backline will be purring and licking themselves all week to be comming up against the Melbourne forward line. Richmond will give us a bath.

AFL website reporting Carlton and St Kilda could play Thursday night.

Also screws us for the Freo game the following week.

So we get one normal game out of the first 6.

Maybe Freo have to come here now for that one????

    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.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
