I'm assuming we'll be playing Sunday at the G considering we're playing Monday night and already had a 5 day break (didn't we?)

    In Pert's recent interview l'm pretty sure he said it's our home game and it will be at the MCG, although no official date and time appears to have been announced

    Definitely a Sunday. We’ve had our 5 day break leading into the Port game and the AFLPA are very strong on only one 5 day break per team this season. 
    It will probably be a 3:20pm at the MCG given we don’t fly home until tomorrow, and then Saturday night prime time vs Geelong in the last round.

    Fair to say there will not be any crowds allowed in before finals 😭

    IMO, lock down would need to end this Thursday evening as planned, if we're any hope of having a crowd during week 1 finals.

    Judging on post lock down 4 and 5, the government likes to have 2 full weekends of no crowds (post lock down), and then a crowd on the third weekend.

    For instance we came out of lockdown a few days before round 13 (Q'Bday weekend) and crowds were back round 15.

    If we come out of lockdown on Thursday week, crowds could be back semi final weekend.

    Finals are different tho. I think the Victorian government is desperate not to lose the finals two years in a row. We’ve already lost so many big events. It’s ripping the soul out of our city. 
    But you’re probably right and also no chance lockdown ends on Thursday. It’s always 14 days. Always. I dunno why they give us false hope.

    Goodwin in his presser said they fly home tonight after the game - although that's as good as tomorrow! In recovery terms, maybe worse...

    The worst part about a 7 day lockdown is the first 3 weeks

    The red-eye? And arrive at 6 in the morning?

    Awful for recovery if true

    Well that’s ridiculous. AFL can’t afford to fund another night in a hotel? Or are WA such bitter [censored] they’re demanding we leave immediately?

    There is a third possibility.  Maybe it was our choice to fly out after the game.

    Why would we choose to fly on the red eye? That is a flight only taken by people who want to save money 😂

    Surely these are charter flights ATM.

    Surprised by this, I thought leaving Melbourne in WA for a couple of weeks was a real chance.  I reckon on Saturday this was odds on with 29 cases but now it seems the latest spread seems to be semi controlled.  Still think we will be in lockdown till mid/late next week

    Because when they have lock downs they always find a bunch of cases that were infectious in the community.

    I think they go short so that if it is a good outcome they can open back up again.

    Off topic slightly but how about Hawthorn's fixture this year.

    In a COVID disrupted year, they'll get to the end of the year having only played three games away from the MCG, Marvel and UTAS (their other home). And of those three, one was an "away" game vs Gold Coast at the SCG. 

    So they'll only have played two games all year in true foreign territory.

    Excellent point. Hopefully  they're sent to all points of the compass next year!

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
