    Because they have to isolate for 7 days before playing WCE

    This is why WA doesn’t deserve a grand final.

    They’ve made it so hard on the AFL and it’s clubs during this pandemic .

    I guess this gives me more time to get through Cloudstreet and The Wretched of the Earth.?

     

    I’m really starting to lose interest in the season now. We always get shafted.

    Doubt it. Wouldn’t they have to also isolate for 7 days before playing?

    I’d say we’ll be playing GC in the pre finals bye if indeed we’re headed to Perth as we speak.


    AFL should call the season off, it’s all over for us anyway, done and dusted!

    4 out of the 6 teams play in Victoria next week.. why they didn’t move them to Victoria this weekend is beyond me

    Well I say Victoria hosts all games moving forward, as the government allows teams to play with no crowds even during a lockdown. The potential for this to severely disadvantage certain teams is what it is. The games get played, and it’s a bonus if fans are allowed in.

    This nonsense today is proof that any other plan isn’t going to work, with Queensland stuffing this up, and WA wanting to make it next to impossible. NSW is out for obvious reasons. SA is the only other state that can make an argument for anything.

    Just great.  Either we'll have our remaining games squeezed into midweek fixtures or we'll play non-contender gold coast during the pre-finals bye weekend, after playing Geelong at kardinia park.  There are not enough spew emoticons to sum this up.

    Doubtless with Casey tiered out after playing today?.  For those who are unaware only footy fix today is Casey on freebie on Kayo today 1pm EST.   Probably a very depleted team since big squad is presumably somewhere in the air over somewhere.

    Gotta stop relying on QLD and WA. They have proven themselves to be unpredictable. Victoria needs to be the hub until the end of the finals.

    No they're supposedly flying into Melbourne today.

    This is an absolute mess really. GMHB stadium,  Marvel, and MCG are all free tomorrow.  We could have easily played in one of those venue's and then immediately fly out to Peth. We then push next weeks game to a Sunday due to the 7 day lockdown.

    The ramifications now of missing a game is potentially huge.

    Agree, this makes the most sense. Vic Govt has proven they will at least work with the AFL 

    They should just tell all teams to come to Melbourne for the remainder of the year.

    Silver lining, maybe a week off now is a better timed freshen up for us than in 4 weeks time?

    The AFL are [censored] id iots. This game should have been moved to Marvel for this afternoon during the week instead of Metricon. Gold Coast play Carlton next week in Melbourne so it made sense that GC stay in Melbourne for this week and play in Melbourne again

    Bunch of amateurs.

    EXACTLY!!!!

    Seriously amateur hour, this is ridiculous ?

    No because the training loads are based on consistency of performance. It’s a disaster for our preparation.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

      Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
