Nice to see the ABC News channel sport reporter being across it… she just stated that Melbourne coach Simon Goodwin and one of his players, Adem Yze are isolating with a case of gastro 😁

If the players get sick we're stuffed. 

Wouldn't put it beyond the shifty dogs' supporters.

Reported Yze had his second jab yesterday, so he might be feeling the effects of that. In any event best they stay away. Our docs will be all over this.

They should have had a curfew.....

Some serious cringe and over the top comments going on in here..

Yep. If Goodwin and Yze are isolating then none of our players should get sick, so I don't know why people are predicting disaster just before we finally get the chance to play in a grand final.

I'd expect the medical staff would be well armed with 'travel bomb' kits, consisting of antibiotics and symptom-targeted preparations. From experience, these effectively tackle 'gastro' inside 2 days.

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?

Chook if you get Gastro and you aren't doing anything its bad enough, but IF players get it then preparing for a Grand Final in elite competition would be extremely concerning!😵

MFCSS-prompted idea:

I think there should be a rule that if your club hasn’t won a flag for 50 years or more and it gets into the GF, it automatically wins. Like if you’re leading the Tour de France going into the final stage. Everyone just shows up to the ground, walks around swilling champagne and playing kick to kick.

(But I really do want us to win it straight-up and I'm trying to enjoy the moment)

I would be putting in a call to Raymond Reddington.

‘Gastro’ is very broad description.

There’s the gastro where you think you’re going to die and there’s the gastro where you just need to be very careful when you fart… sound like it may be the latter.

Good thing there’s a bye!

The players need to be on the baked beans only diet "Shane Warne in India" style just to be safe, until after the GF!

Then fart the doggies into submission

I have never seen the footy media so determined to come up with some reason why Melbourne won't win, it's incredible. suggesting the Bulldogs might be more fresh than us, given we've had 1 game in 28 days and they've been to just about every state in that time.

If that's the case we should Sh$t all over them !

    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
