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!

    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 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.

    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.

    I think Casey will struggle this weekend.

    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.

    The vfl stats is all over the shop. I've counted twice that Bailey Laurie has had 2 handballs but yet is listed as not having a touch.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.
