I was at Adelaide Oval and they required everybody attending to wear a mask if they were not seated in their seats. If you were walking around the stadium or purchasing food or drink you were required to wear a mask. You were not able purchase food or drink if you were not wearing a mask. You were directed to wear your mask or wear it properly by every attendant or police officer around the ground.

In fact every establishment that I entered whilst in Adelaide whether it be a store or food establishment were very strict on no sign in no service.

Unfortunately this is not the case in Victoria and I would be more confident of a handling of an outbreak if I was living in SA than I do living in Victoria. This is not a political statement as SA is a Labor government and it would not matter if it were the Liberals in charge in Victoria based on some of the statements made from them during lockdown last year. We seem to be the only state that can't get it's [censored] together in handling this pandemic.

Spot on, I would say I would be more confident in any state than Victoria.

Darwin/NT would be locking borders shut. Will say our game next week will be moved to the gabba/alternate place.

It’s our home game so should be moved to the G. It’s free Friday night.

So they said we can go and yet tickets don’t appear to be available. What’s the deal? Game is in two days. 

A lot can happen in 2 days in COVID times.

Assume they are working out the logistics of actually spreading the entire crowd throughout the entire stadium within the % capacity.

They’ll probably play it at Metricon so Brisbane don’t get the home ground  “advantage”

If it’s not in the Alice, and we can’t have it at the G (why not) I’d vote for GIANTS stadium. We played well there during the sydney part of hub life and it’s a truly neutral ground.

I wonder how those who went to the pies game are feeling right now. 

Probably like losers, as usual. ?

I would have thought that if we are locked down in Vic then all games in Vic would either be cancelled or played before zero crowds

Lock down is lockdown or should be 

doesnt seem to worry Bunnings and the big retailers

Just what I needed this morning a little humour!

A little humour never goes astray. As Dees devotees it’s probably what kept us going during the wasteland that’s been the last half-century. ?

Such a shame been looking forward to this one since Anzac Eve ?

I know in the bigger picture there's far more important and devastating ramifications for people - but it still sucks

I imagine there's no way we're playing in the Alice next week either. Wonder if they'll try and reschedule one of our matches later in the year there (GWS most likely). Club will be missing out on big dollars if that match is scratched.

I guess we can close this thread.

I'm seeing if i can get a gig at te ground during game time somehow. Security maybe?

Then i'll go rogue and barrack for the dees 

It adds a bizarre element to what is a super important game in terms of ladder position at season's end

Good to see you still have your sense of humour or is this just bizarre scream for help?

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
