ABC reporting Dees in isolation/getting test - one of our guys was in a hotspot...

 

Melbourne players and club in isolation. A player has been to an exposure site. 
Game may not go ahead. Get. [censored]. 

 

100% it’s one of the bars in Chapel Street. 
I knew this season was going too well.

I believe this might be due to Max and Gus attending a footy night (might have been one of those "That's good for footy" ones) at The Sporting Globe in Mordialloc, which has been declared a hotspot.

Some people also saying it's apparently Marty Hore, which might be the best of a bad situation if he's not bee around the club/training while injured?

Edit - Scratch that. Just saw DL's post above.

This is why there was no training on wednesday i would say makes sense now.

Too much of a distraction to play the game now.

Its carnage everywhere, life and footy. Its really hard to accept and take at the moment, very deflating.. 

Game surely cant go ahead tomorrow night.. 


A forced reset might be OK.  We have been playing with some listlessness for the past month. 

Remember the discussion last year when Connor McKenna's situation caused our game Essendon to be postponed and a few posters wanted to blame Essendon? And some wanted us to be awarded the four points and to move on. This is what the wiser heads were thinking about when trying to quash those ideas.

Couldn't they all get tested then get there results back today or early tomorrow? Like the dogs did

They could, but the problem has been it seems like there's been a few 'early' tests that come back negative only to show positive later on when there's a 'stronger presence' in the system. You'd think the game would be cancelled now.

Good time to just bring the bye round forward just play what can be played this weekend 

Totally agree

That worked well for us*, we missed playing them while they were in form and got them when they were rotten.

* adjusting for already having stuffed the season up in Cairns.

  • 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?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
