So correct me if I’m wrong but the cats have stated that a number of their staff/players had gastro prior to a during the match last week. There can’t be a coincidence with this and this has just come at the worst possible time for us. 

I hope the club and medical staff have done everything they can to prevent it from spreading further. 

MFCSS definitely kicking in now!!!!

Get the feeling cats had been dealing with it for weeks, didn’t danger have the runs in round 23

Gastro is very contagious. Zero chance it would have taken a full week for symptoms to occur, if we did get it from Geelong.

Also Goodwin and Yze would have had a lot less contact with Geelong players than our players, who all appear to be fine.

More chance they both caught it out and about. I assume they've been hanging out, maybe went to a cafe or dinner together and got sick. 

Since it is so contagious, it is a good thing they are isolating from everyone else.

You'd think gastro would have shown up before now if it was from the cats a week ago? 

 

We're over a week out from the game. Obviously not ideal for a player to get it, but if they did how badly would it really affect them come gameday?

For the love of Norm..

 


The ‘vomit’ emoji is most apropos here…

Word coming from WA supporters at the open training is it was dodgy seafood not gastro.

If true, that's obviously a lot better than gastro.

Depends who you are!

Dodgy Seafood is BAD…

Antibiotics can fix it pretty quick

Also makes a lot more sense that only 2 coaches have it considering they’ve spent a lot of time in close quarters. 
Food poisoning is a 48 hour thing. So here’s hoping.

Not ideal, but at least not contagious.


Positive news, all the players were out there. Still the club would not leak anything if the players were under the weather because your basically raising the white flag.

Time for the Shane Warne diet when he traveled India, suit case of baked beans 

So it's not just the fans soiling themselves before the big game.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • 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.
