"Mr Merlino said there were no changes for the rules on sport crowds, major events, bars or restaurants."

he actually said the public events section of health were reviewing the rules but no announcement this morning.

I also assume that with roof closed Marvel is considered indoors.

My guess is 50%.. perhaps 65% at best

    This virus won’t go away. Make us wear masks FFS. I’d even wear full PPE.

    Thats a really good point DJ.

    The roof that is never open needs to open. It was built to open and in this case its public safety at stake. It should be law that it is open.

    AHHHHH FFS ?

    This can't be happening again, why is it always our games that are affected?

    I would assume that there will be a reduction across all games in Victoria this week and if the outbreak gets out of hand perhaps even the outdoor games might have no crowds either.

    The blockbuster between St. Kilda and North is being played at Marvel on Saturday afternoon will likely be affected too.

    Someone rang SEN this morning to say there is a problem with it and a strong chance it won't be open again.

    public gatherings have been capped at 30 people.  masks required indoors 

    I reckon we have no chance of seeing this game live

    15 months on Covid is still an absolute [censored] of a thing

    50% capacity is my tip. Just a guess.

    Crowd would only be 35K tops if 100% capacity. Marvel crowds have been woeful this year.

    If the prior games this year that were COVID impacted are any indication I think it is more likely to be no crowds than less crowds this weekend.

    To be fair that only happened in WA and we know they are panic merchants. 

     

    As much as I want to go to this game, I want to avoid lockdowns more. A wide long lasting lockdown would impact the season far more than one game with no crowds.

    Was literally about to say is there any chance that I dunno, the retractable roof they have on that stadium could be like, open? Possibly? :p

    A car load of us were coming down for the game, and I was all set to purchase tickets today. Due to some logistics, we had to make a decision today so we pulled the pin. Really peeved. I was really hungry to see these 2 go head to head live.

    Our delayed game vs essendon last year forced a cluttered fixture for us . One less game in cairns would have been helpful

    I don’t think we will get into the long lasting lockdown situation again. Snap lockdowns are more likely and I think we will have one by end of the week I’m afraid. But I’m just an armchair expert so take it with a grain of salt :)

    I doubt we'll be the only team affected by this outbreak. They can always move our game to the MCG on Friday night (if worried about the closed roof being an indoor venue) rather than force us into a compacted fixture situation later in the year.

    Apparently 4 more positives already today. Crowds look very unlikely. I'll be thankful if we don't go to lockdown!

    They should make tickets available for people who have been vaccinated.

    And only for people who have been vaccinated.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
