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.

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
