Do you actually believe that?

Fauci is now, having said that widespread vaccination would mean no masks, saying that masks indoors and out may "be needed" indefinitely, for all even primary school kids.

This pandemic has seen a litany of mixed massages.

Agree but as the virus mutates the conditions/ rules change. iMO it is  going to get a lot worse before it gets better. You can put your house on there is going to be an up graded booster shot in 2022.

Yes monocular I do believe our health professionals, that is why I am fully vaccinated and according to the experts if I catch COVID I will more than likely survive without serious side effects. I pay no attention to social media,  or the Press for that matter. They are not singing from the same song list, full vaccination means lower death risk and I am all for that.

Thank Lucifer the ressies are back is all i can say!

Just need 6 to 8 players to play a blinder so they can replace some severely out of form players up top!  :rolleyes:

Casey bring much excitement to the AFL team - nearing the interest in the 'seconds' that was held years ago but these were pre-match games so you got to look at a very full squad regularly. I'd really like to see a handful of Casey players rotationally subbed into the Dees' team on a more regular basis. The longer term benefits could be enormous rather than play the same olds - in form or not - to the death.

Carna Dees, 'Carn Casey!

The Covid19 situation and the need for clubs to be mindful of the possibility of relocation elsewhere for periods of a week or two is having an effect on the competition. With the Western Bulldogs playing here in Victoria, they can have most of their reserve players playing VFL. Casey will be doing without many of their regular AFL affiliated players who have been in the team - the likes of Chandler, Melksham, J Smith, Weideman and vandenBerg that would form the backbone of the team. They’re going to be in trouble tomorrow.

Teams up - but to save you time - Weid, Hibbo, Chandler, AVB, Jordan, Melk, and maybe Daw must be travelling with us as not named. 

The VFL concept is surely broken. Most of the guys above have played three games since May 23rd. How can they stay match fit over that period, let alone find some form.
 

And now they will be travelling for three weeks with no games. For the apparent elite sporting competition in Australia this is embarrassing.
 

And before anyone jumps in with the COVID card, I get it, but it’s not as though COVID is an unexpected issue for this season.

You have my vote DZ.

Coverage?  Any hope of seeing it on the box or the inter web?

As I think someone may have alreaady said, it's a freebie on Kayo.

Looks like they must have taken Majak with them.

A great opportunity to play Maj for one solo match and manage / rest both Max & Dogga for this one.  Send those two straight to Perth to prep for the Eagles.  Oops match cancelled!  Serves Gil right....trying to be too smart by half.  Just bring everyone into one hub and finish off the season FCS.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
