It’s a shame they are not at Coogee. I reckon the Coogee Beach hotel has one of the very best Surf-n-Turf meals. Trac or Gussy could do a review 

Nice park next door to kick their balls around

Look, I know they're playing badly, but I don't think this punishment is warranted or helpful.

That appears to be six of one and half dozen of the other.

Totally understand the sentiment. MFCSS kicking in, now expecting NSW Govt to ban crowds or something.

Hopefully not for your case, but the crowded scenes outside a Sydney pub is the exact complacency and disregard that Victorians showed, and suggest that it's not out of the question that NSW will go back into stage 3 lock down like us VICS.

Any idea how many people they're letting in? I'd be disappointed if some MFC members living in Sydney missed out.

No idea, on the telecast of Cats v lions it looked like quite a few. I'd be equally disappointed if MFC members here missed out. I watch every week with a mate and he got tickets as well. Very easy to slip back with this virus.

From the NSW Govt website

 

In Step 3, seated and ticketed events may take place with the following crowd limits:

  • Stadiums with a capacity of up to 40,000 people may operate at 25% seating capacity.

I think the players currently in NSW should move to the Gold Coast in sunny Queensland on Monday after the Hawks match. Need to get out of NSW and have 3-4 weeks in QLD.  August on the GC would be a nice winter escape.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
