Any doggies fans on the staff at the hotel??? Danny Southern in a disguise inoculating the porridge 

That was missed in the mandela movie Invictus

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.

Maybe Jones left the hub too early Afterall?

FFS Dees, can everyone stay away from the Salmon Mousse!

 

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.....

Anyone against the bye now?

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!😵

Lets just hope none of the playing group ate what Goody and Yze ate??

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)

On a positive note at least we are not wearing the white shorts for the Grand Final.

Jesus, they're fine, they woke up a bit crook, they're not taking an chances. Chaplin said they're expected back on deck tomorrow!

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!

Dodgy prawns apparently

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

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.
