Vic and SA have to work together to keep this season alive QLD and NSW are completely rooted.

WA are a pack of a holes.

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

I think it needs to be a hub from here on. No [censored] farting around with QLD anymore. Our game against GC needs to be in Melbourne.

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

it might have been so but, as i understand it, we have no place to train in wa apparently. stuck in a hotel. 


At least we didn’t lose today

Now that we’re flying home, any chance West Coast stick around for another week to play us in VIC?

Footy in WA is in the too hard basket IMO.

well… it will mean we’ve flown melb- brisbane- perth- melb on the day before the game. i don’t think there’s a golden solution to want here. GC in perth is our best outcome.

Just hub the whole thing in Melbourne. 

Silver lining is that they’ve scrapped the nonsense finals bye.

The only team that likes the pre finals bye is the Dogs because we all know they wouldn’t have won the 16GF without it.

It would appear that the GCS game will now be in the spare week before the finals. Sometimes you cannot take a trick. Is there anything else besides melb players getting covid that can ruin our season.

Why on earth would you give them the GF? It is G without crowds at the worst for me.

Can we not play Gold Coast tomorrow at Marvel? If both teams can get to Melbourne today.

This is logical. Win or lose it won’t impact GCS finals chances, so integrity isn’t in question (anymore than it already is - which is a LOT)

You'd think this would be possible.

The only things I can see getting in the way are:

Gold Coast being allowed to travel into Melbourne by Plane

How long do Melbourne need to quarantine before playing West Coast in Perth (Is it 7 days?)

Clarke and Morris are guessing about the timing of the game!

Off to lunch, sans MFC/GCS game afterwards.  Will relax and wait till the dust settles.

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
