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

And only for people who have been vaccinated. 

 

first or second vaccination?

second is 12 weeks after first so very few people have had second needle (excepting category 1a )

i didn't say it was a good idea, od. i was pointing out you would need to have had 2nd dose and most punters who have bothered haven't had the time yet for 2nd..

btw i have a card saying i've had the first dose

 

First dose fine. Largely becuase i've only had my first one. Second one next week

A letter from your doc or some other formal proof. Incentivize and reward. 

And I can yell and support with others who have done the right thing and had their shot(s) and not have to worry (well 72% of not worry) about all the possible covid carrying delaying dees and dogs fans cramping my style.

And less young bucks who can't handle their grog and are desperate to impose themselves on the rest of us.

Perfect.

Perfect. 

I reckon postponing  the game is perfect.

Ummm with all due respect this is completely wrong.   Other clubs have been affected well before us

I mean we were the first club, to have one of our matches postponed, when this all began in 2020, when an ess player tested positive and the game was played at the G with no crowd.

Now one of the best matches of the 2021 might be same??

I do understand that other clubs have all been affected by Covid 19, it's just very frustrating to be going through this again.

Over 50s only then and mainly over 70s - the lifts will break down from overuse as no one will be able to get up those big ramps!

Pretty certain games was off and we had a cluttered last few rounds

I thought we were going to play ess and they played the game at the G with out crowds?

I actually hope there's no crowd now as this will turn a massive spotlight on the Umps to get their decision making right and in addition there won't be any BS "scary home crowd" excuses to fall back on this time.

P.S.  How about we turn up in Demon masks, horns, capes and tridents at our next home game minions....that's gotta be pretty scary and might win us a match we shouldn't win!

Hey I would get jabbed if they’d let me. 
It’s the old people letting us down. Eligible but super low uptake. 
What’s a little blood clot between friends? ?

Edited by Jaded

I’d like to see them still permit a very reduced amount of crowd, maybe select cheer squad only and plonk them at opposite ends. Allow 500 people from each team, space them out. I know it’s different worlds but they have been able to do it in other countries, it’s amazing how much of a different it makes just having some sort of crowd at the game.

A reporter I follow on Twitter filmed video of the non-existent lines at one of the mass injection sites. They should open it up to anyone who wants to get a shot.

Totally agree. Problem is we don’t have enough Pfizer vaccines so all of us young ones can’t get vaccinated anyway.

I have had mine jaded well first one a month ago. The problem is people believe anti vaxer crap. I know 4 people who are scared and won't have the Astra vaccine. Silly but while you give people a choice when there has been no one dieing they have this I will wait crap.

Lol I was at my mothers with a group of 70-80yr olds and I just said the same thing, it is a disgrace now. They all said the vaccination centres they went to were deserted.

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

No vaccine, no attending footy 

 

Very much doubt there'll be any crowds now.  If the game gets underway we've done well!

A bombshell from the G might be about to hit from Sunday's game! :rolleyes:

  • CASEY: Sydney

    The Casey Demons were always expected to emerge victorious in their matchup against the lowly-ranked Sydney Swans at picturesque Tramway Oval, situated in the shadows of the SCG in Moore Park. They dominated the proceedings in the opening two and a half quarters of the game but had little to show for it. This was primarily due to their own sloppy errors in a low-standard game that produced a number of crowded mauls reminiscent of the rugby game popular in old Sydney Town. However, when the Swans tired, as teams often do when they turn games into ugly defensive contests, Casey lifted the standard of its own play and … it was off to the races. Not to nearby Randwick but to a different race with an objective of piling on goal after goal on the way to a mammoth victory. At the 25-minute mark of the third quarter, the Demons held a slender 14-point lead over the Swans, who are ahead on the ladder of only the previous week's opposition, the ailing Bullants. Forty minutes later, they had more than fully compensated for the sloppiness of their earlier play with a decisive 94-point victory, that culminated in a rousing finish which yielded thirteen unanswered goals. Kicks hit their targets, the ball found itself going through the middle and every player made a contribution.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
    This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

    After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
