I think it's pretty clear the game will either go ahead or it won't

I'll keep you all updated

    Nah it's not. You may have heard the same as me about The Sporting Globe in Mordi, but I think it's not that one due to the different times. The 'word' going around is it may have been Marty Hore, which is why it's possibly a blessing in a way given he's currently injured and not around the players as much.

    Marty Hore was at training on Tuesday.  See the Training Gallery on the MFC Website.

    Thanks Sandra.

    It could just be postponed, there's no scheduled match at Docklands on Saturday night or on Sunday. 

    I realise that could upset Channel 7 because they would have a broadcast clash and have the Suns v Hawks and Swans v Blues blockbusters scheduled for broadcast then, but surely that wouldn't be a show stopper.  Maybe they could show both matches at the same time on their different channels.

    In rehab though, I'm not sure how much he was in direct contact with other players.

    It might not even be Hore, it's just what some are saying and makes sense given it's obviously a player who's somewhat separate at the moment.

    I assume he would attend all the meetings though

    Yeah probably, and possibly even walked over to Gosch's with the players. I guess that's what they're investigating now which is why tomorrow's game is still up in the air.

    The Dees/Ess Sunday game last year was postponed because McKenna tested positive on the Friday and the Saturday.  It was a new situation and no time to develop contingencies.

    iirc McKenna had been in the weights room and attend meetings with his 'group'.  The health department ticked this off as being ok and other Ess players did not need to isolate for 14 days. 

    Unless one of our players or officials tests positive I see no reason why tomorrow night's game should not go ahead.

    The other thing to remember is that we had restrictions went that happened. Connor broke restrictions.

    Marty hasn’t done anything wrong here. He’s just unlucky and it’s very hard to keep on top of all the exposure sites. New ones are getting added by the hour.

    Reported on SEN via Sam Edmund that it was a player that's part of the rehab group.

    Rehab group still have contact with other players and staff who then in turn have contact with other players and staff.

    For this not to be an issue in regards to playing this match on Friday as scheduled it has to be a player who has zero contact with other players and staff or they all return a negative result. Having said that even returning a negative result might not be enough given that this virus sometimes doesn't show up till a few days later and presumably they've all be tested just today.

    Hahaha, years ago I used the line 'Christ on a stick' in conversation thinking it was brilliant. My good friend thought it was terrible and paid out on me for years uttering it.

    Id never seen it mentioned until now so I'm vindicated and he was a nump! Ironically he IS a Collingwood supporter as well!

    All true Andy.

    Apparently Dees are arguing the point that the player in question has in fact had minimal to no contact with the rest of the playing group etc...

    Time will soon tell mate.

    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.

    Except, the last quarter was by far the best quarter of footy they played all year. Moved Daniher into the ruck and they almost run over the top of us.

    Gave Essendon supporters hope for 2021, until...Daniher, Sadd ect left??

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
