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!!!!

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?

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.

I think Kolt looks like he’s im

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
