Whately on SEN Crunchtime says MFC plane diverted mid-route on the way to GC on to Perth but needs to refuel somewhere ...

Hope it doesn't land in western Sydney ?

I know mate, I hear ya, just know you're always a bit extra fiery on game day.

Bound for Perth it seems.

Living in South East Queensland, I was originally quite happy when our game Vs the Suns was switched last week, as I'd inadvertently double booked myself with a camping trip.

Was stoked when I booked my tickets for today's game on Thursday night.

Really flat about things being cancelled this morning.

Guess I was really fated not to watch this game in person. 

Yep a real bummer. Got the freebies for myself and grand sons then purchased tickets for 3 others and was looking forward to the short drive and seeing them live then this happens. Then thought OK I'll fill the bar fridge up and watch them on TV. That's also canned so I will just have to empty the bar fridge and watch whoever. Not happy Jan.

So where does this leave our fixture against GC? Are we now having a bye and playing the Eagles?

[Deeman 1,497]

Geez, I'm stoked.

Just landed at Coolangatta Airport and some nice bloke sold me his 5 tickets to today's game for my entire family and even gave me a 10% discount.

Why wouldn’t we be returning to VIC and GC Suns heading on a plane to VIC to play tomorrow, as opposed to heading to Perth and having a game to catch up on before finals?

I've been mellow this year compared to most couple of years? I've also limit my interaction on game day threads purely on this but half the time I'm with my Melbourne supporting mate watching the footy.

[dees189227 12,394]

So we flew up this morning? What do we do now, come back home or go to perth? 

Also why can't we play & just not have crowds?

Don't mellow too much! It's part of the fabric of Demonland!

I hope our game doesn't get re-scheduled for mid-week. The club should lobby hard to extent the season by a week or do we still have the pre-finals bye to fall back on?

That's so funny. I just presumed all of us who post on here have no mates and watch the game in a isolation whereby we can vent our fury. (heaps of projection in that statement).

Enroute to Perth right now, turned around midair

Welcome to COVID reality on Gold Coast. Life has progressed pretty much as normal up here so we were due. Have no issue with lockdown as Sydney is a case study in what can happen. I do however think government collectively has failed the people with vaccination rates and hotel quarantine. My luck has free tickets; food and drink in Virgin lounge. For those who have not been there it great. Totally different vibe to MCC and long room. The only positive is we can’t lose!

Because state governments have NFI

Why go to Perth??  Why not play Suns at Marvel tomorrow night. 

[Diamond_Jim 12,598]

Play it tomorrow/Monday in Perth at one of the WAFL grounds

[OhMyDees 1,834]

Better off going to Perth. Can they give us both 4 points? Theoretically they by virtue of the QLD govt they’ve forfeited?

Because they have to isolate for 7 days before playing WCE

That would be too sensible.

[dazzledavey36 55,004]

Gold Coast are now preparing to fly down to Melbourne today ?‍♂️

[Clintosaurus 7,852]

Surely we can isolate in Melbourne as part of the 7 days?
