I assume you already know the answer

I assume we have one Essendon player in 14 day quarantine which no one really knows if he should be or not and no effect to the general public, which surely is what Qld is about.

    State premiers are running around behaving like despots. This is a complete farce. AFL teams get tested twice a week. Today the Vic figure is 75 and yesterday 49 in population of 6.6 million. There are 2088 confirmed cases in victoria and 3100 in NSW. It is a joke.

    QLD are really starting to [censored] me off. Their premier is doing so much damage to their economy. She is a complete nervous Nelly.

     

    And promoting coal mining through Adani and big Clive.  Ridiculously supporting burning fossil fuels !!  They just need to have Vic team fly in and fly out same day with compulsory testing for each day for 3 days and prior to game

    Active cases are more relevant to the current situation.

    I'll add this, I could understand the Qld gov. position if there was a reported case of a member of the public contracting the virus from contact with a player or official from the AFL but there isn't.

    All sounds good but...

    Check out what's happened with the Warriors.

    ...by the way what a class act the Storm are..

    Have great admiration for Bellamy, Smith and Hoffman.

    As an aside that was one of the most amazing things I've seen from a professional sporting organisation. The Storm really are a well run operation.

    I really wish it didn’t seem inevitable that we will play them back into form and lose by 5 goals. I really do.

    Easy answer, just do the rest of the draw with 16 teams, leaving Brisbane and Gold Coast out. Let them take it up with their Govt

    The obvious answer is for Brisbane & Gold Coast to move south for the foreseeable future - No games in QLD

     

     

    Edit: If other state premiers play hard ball move all clubs to Victoria. They could play at MCG, Docklands, Geelong, Casey, Princes Park etc.

    If either side kicks 6 goals they are guaranteed the win

    This is such a horrible event, we have people complaining the last couple of weeks about "chairman Dan Andrews" and how he has been too slow to "open things up again". They do that and cases go up again, while people are getting stuck into other Premiers looking after their states. They can't win.

     

    It is so hard as there is just so much at stake from a jobs, livelihoods stand point but I'd rather be safe than Florida.

    Would be a good time to get the Tigers IMO. They have been ordinary since the restart.

    We will play them into form you can count on that

    Of course some in the Northern states who can't stand Smith, Bellamy and Storm found it condescending.

    Always looking for the negative.

    It was a great gesture and I'm sure it was taken in the right way by the players.

    only reason this season is going on is cos of broadcast $$ to keep clubs afloat

    And that is why anything is on the table, as the season is on a knife’s edge. We are in the middle of the worst pandemic in maybe a century and we are trying to keep sport going.

    The other States offer crowds now whereas they are two months at minimum in Melbourne.

    NT will pay money as would Tasmania for a few games in each Sate/Territory.

     

    Gil has won the lottery if you think about it.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
