Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.

It isn't "clearly running away from contact tracers". If it were, we'd be seeing spiralling new case numbers. Testing rates are significantly up (over 45,000) but positives are flat at 4-5. That's not "running away" from us.

 

Probably find that number jumps in the next few days...

A bit of left field thinking here but if the situation isn’t looking great (but not dire) by this time next week,  why not cancel Queens-birthday and give both sides the bye for the weekend of 11 June - 14 June (round 13)

Why "probably"?

Possibly, sure.

But if it was going to spiral, it was going to be the last few days, when people were still registering infections from pre-lockdown, before we'd noticed there was community spread going on.

Testing rates across those days have been high, so we're getting as accurate a read on it as we can.

Sure, it's possible it gets worse from here, but I don't know how you can argue it's probable. IMO, it's probable it flatlines and/or decreases from here, as the preceding infectious period for new cases now starts to run into the days we were already under restrictions, and then in lockdown.

The 7 days is up midnight Thursday but what if we get 6-8 positive cases on Thursday?

The lockdown would continue on if that were to occur, probably for another 5-7 days. 

My realistic view is 2-4 weeks of lockdown ... but we've been lucky so far in terms of avoiding big numbers contracting this damn disease.  Bloody lucky in fact

People should not be underestimating this particular strain of the virus.  It's the Indian varient and highly contageous

We will do very well to reel it back in ... but if the government doesn't get its act together with the quarantine hotels, it could easily rear its ugly head again.  More than twice over

If it was me I'd be stopping all international flights (that aren't essential) until at least the whole country is vaccinated

The cost becomes much greater every time we have a lockdown 

Major Cost vs Major Cost ... take the lesser cost

Re the footy ... whilst we're in lockdown in Victoria play the games where the crowds can attend but the AFL then has to make sure all the clubs are compensated adequately and fairly (that compensation might have to extend into 2022)

We won't be the only Victorian team losing revenue but a big part of that revenue can be recompensed down the track

Just like last season, the TV ratings could go through the roof but the broadcasters will want crowd involvement.  Keep them happy and the dollars will roll in

Why probable...I think there may be a lot more in the incubation period.

I hope I'm wrong.

Agree Titan some on here are simply alarmist!!!

Despite many weeks of thousands of spectators attending games and travelling on public transport to get there we have a lock down due to one person coming in to the country.

That this one case has led to multiples cases does show the potential extent of the spread and the virulence of this virus.

it would be good if we had an effective quarantine system in place. Our tracking and tracing has improved although we are still only told of cases with no emphasis on severity.

The tracking and tracing is supported by an effective vaccination program . 

It is disappointing there is a case from a Nursing home staff member when this sector including residents are the most vulnerable and should be vaccinated.

The vaccination does not stop spread and only decreases the effect of the symptoms therefore helping reduce spread as shown overseas.

Our health system should be recognised as having the ability to identify and treat this health problem. Not only tracking and tracing source but treating the severity and increasing vaccination to most vulnerable, not just testing many unaffected.

We nowhave capacity deal with intensive cases while also monitoring less severe cases.

While lockdowns limit spread, the actions of our population in adhering to separation, registration and sanitation measures, has also shown some effectiveness..

My issue is that Victoria has shown it is unable  to run the systems as compared to other states 

The question is why? Its no good blaming others Vic and Vic alone is struggling to get on top of even minor outbreaks

I think very state has had some sort of outbreak.

As the largest economy our density and activity levels are higher. We have more reliance on public transport than other capitals. I think we are testing greater numbers and have had more problems with receiving and distribution of vaccines.

There seems to be a knee jerk reaction and response system. The lock down has been identified as the best solution. There has never been a recognition that this is a health issue and our health system needed to be adjusted to be fit for the changed demands.

quite plainly it is being run as a political solution rather than a health issue While this continues our overall response will be poor and Vics will suffer more

I can't believe this isnt happening already

Re international flights coming into our country and in response to your post ... 

Yes,  particularly for countries such as the USA,  the UK & India where not only has the disease often been out of control, but there is a lot of international travel between Australia and those countries

So one slips through the net because of the shoddy Quarantine hotel operation.  An accident waiting to happen but all our so-called leaders on both sides of politics are to blame

I stopped taking sides decades ago Gonzo ... they are all incompetent in my view

I'd like to be more optimistic but taking up that stance can often lead to greater disappointment

Idk why they even chose to quarantine people in hotels. This was always gonna go south. I know, hindsight is 20/20. But I’ve been thinking from the get-go that while building a purpose-built facility for quarantining, preferably in the middle of nowhere, they could’ve quarantined returning Aussies in disused army barracks for example. The hotels they’re using are not designed for quarantining and no amount of adaptations will ever make them suitable. AND, they’re all in the heart of the city! There’s an invitation for spreading if ever I saw one. I had to quarantine in a hotel in Adelaide and I lost count of the instances of potential for breaching rules. And this was AFTER the second wave and long lockdown in Melbz. 
Anyways, that’s my two bob’s worth. ??

I agree that both Feds and States should have built purpose built quarantine facilities by now however its more than just the building that needs to be thought through.

The logistics of feeding, securing /guarding, testing, and otherwise caring for the quarantined in an isolated dedicated quarantine facility is significant. As I understand it from a resident at the Howard Springs site, staff live on site. If we want staff who are dedicated to the one facility to avoid cross contamination from the quarantine site to some other place (such as happened in Victoria) you are looking at a workforce that is only working the one job and the one site for an extended period. Then there is the transport of people from airports to the quarantine site.

I'm not saying this isn't doable but I am saying it isn't easy.

The Federal Government doesn't employ health care workers like the States but has the Federal Police and Army (for guarding purposes) to do this without State Territory involvement is challenging. There are also very limited number of Federal sites that are suitable as discussed below.

The idea of using "disused army barracks" I think is problematic. Firstly because we want individuals isolated whereas army barracks congregate them. Secondly in use army barracks wouldn't meet community standards for accommodation for a fortnight (my son just did Kapooka basic infantry training https://www.army.gov.au/our-life/training/army-recruit-training-centre-kapooka) - disused army barracks would be of a lower standard of repair and amenity.

Exactly! So many opportunities for spreading. On one occasion, the daily visit by the cops and I couldn’t find my mask so didn’t open the door. Through the closed door, the cop says, “don’t worry about it, just open the door anyway,” And that’s just one example of myriad breaches.

That's astonishing

Having people who haven't got the disease live in an adjacent room to people that do have the disease (for 2 weeks) sums it all up

Everything else that flows on from that poorly thought out arrangement just makes the issue worse

There's a way to do it but it means commandeering various building and paying staff an appropriate amount to stay full time on these premises (wearing full PPE gear)

And don't have those in isolation stay in the same building as those who have the disease

Draconian measures with much stricter rules than we have in jails ... but stop the international flights except for essential services

Some possible reasons:

  • Melbourne is the city with the largest population in Australia. (Don't believe the story that Sydney is the biggest. Sydney's number is inflated by inclusion of population centres further from Sydney than Geelong is from Melbourne...yet Geelong's population is not included in Melbourne's total)
  • Apparently Melburnians travel more across the metropolis than Sydney people do across theirs thereby increasing the scope for transmission of the virus (this was discussed on 774 last week)
  • At this time of year, Melbourne is the coldest mainland city which it would appear allows the virus to survive longer on surfaces
  • the QR codes system in Victoria was a mess with multiple instead of a single system plus a slack appoach to its use by the community
  • Victoria's Health Department has been shown to be a shambles with the head of the Department being forced out resigning last year. Changes to large organisations inevitably take time, so it's no surprise if it still hasn't got its act together

The last two outbreaks in Victoria came from SA quarantine and Sydney's northern beaches. I'm not sure what the Victorian government can do when a contact of Wollert man (who came from SA) travels to numerous places around  Melbourne for a week with symptoms and doesn't get tested.

Get vaccinated. It's the only way of dramatically reducing the risk of severe disease or dying, and it does help lower transmission, if not completely.

    DEPTH CHARGE by Whispering Jack

    The jubilation on the coach’s face as he danced a celebratory jig by the playing bench after the final siren sounded to record his team’s four-point victory over the Demons when the teams last met, said it all.    On that rainy Friday night at the Adelaide Oval, Ken Hinkley’s young midfield secured much more than four points on offer. The victory over one of the big dogs of the competition after a succession of wins over some of its lesser lights gave his team respect and validation fo

    HIBERNATING by KC from Casey

    When they locked up the rooms for summer at the end of last year’s football season, the rooms gathered cobwebs, the atmosphere became dense and the place developed a sleepy feel. They opened up the rooms to let Casey out to play on Sunday but the team was still hibernating and they missed the bulk of the opening quarter.

    A FORK IN THE HAWK by George on the Outer

    For too long in the past, Demon fans became habitually sick and tired of watching the Hawks hand out thrashings to their side. But Melbourne’s empahtic 55-point win at the MCG on Saturday has truly put a fork in the Hawk and turned that history well and truly on its head. The Demons have now won nine of their last ten encounters with the other result, a draw.     And like a fork, it was the multi-pronged options that Melbourne had all across the ground.  It certainly helped that Hawthorn
