Geelong on alert after recording one of Victoria’s 20 new cases today

Surely the chances are slim to none

Misleading headline in the extreme.

Confirmed to have caught it in Melbourne and has been in quarantine whilst infectious.

    Next week too?

    Another week of lockdown and Baccus Marsh school shut again. Absolutely can’t see it happening.

    Crowds in Geelong was a media beat up all the way through. It would be absolutely ridiculous to have thousands at the footy in Victoria whole cases are in the community. Why take the risk?

    Saints a decent chance with finals on the line. Cats form is dipping

    Good fixture for us as Dogs, Port and Cats all play on Saturday so we will know exactly what the situation is come Sunday afternoon. In my opinion, a good position to be in at this stage of the season.

    Its pretty simple, beat Adelaide and get ready for Geelong which will be Saturday night the following week.

    Can it dip so far DD that Cats lose their last two and Lions win their last 2? If that happens Lions finish 4th and knock Cats down to 5th. Then again, do we want two interstate teams in the top 4?

    Nonetheless, exciting finish coming up.

    Geelong will not lose to St Kilda. Unfortunately.

    I think they could quite easily. No crowd at Cat Park. StKilda smashed Sydney last week.

    You’re probably correct but we said that about the Giants last week. It’s just a bit of fun picturing the Cats losing all three home games to finish the season.

    Yes it would be hilarious. But it won't happen. The saints played well last week so they will be shizen this week.

    i actually wonder, given that there's the 'week off' the following week, whether they schedule it for a 'prime time sunday evening' game to try and maximise what will likely determine who finishes top of the table

    I would rather forgo not going to a final in person than play a Home final against Geelong at Geelong.

    Empty MCG every day of the week or Tasmania.

    In the Gus and Gawny podcast Gawny mentioned we have a horrible record with a crowdless MCG. I can't remember the numbers but they were bad for a team sitting top of the ladder.

    We're 0-1-3.

    Lost to Richmond and Geelong last year, then this year drew with Hawthorn and lost to the Dogs.

    We're 3-0 in crowdless games at Marvel (beat Carlton last year, Bulldogs and GC this year).

    And we're 0-1 in crowdless games at Perth Stadium (Round 1 loss to West Coast last year).

    And given that we can't be the Friday night fixture, you would think that will be Dogs and Port.  So we will know ahead of time if Port has a top 2 spot (in which case we need to win to get top spot in order to avoid playing them at home in a 2v3 QF).  If they have lost, then we are playing for 2nd or 3rd place and that would only be of significance if the GMHBA home final delusion hasn't been extinguished.....

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
