She is also an extremely committed Catholic and the deputy chair of the Catholic parish council for Boulder-Kalgoorlie in WA.  A Catholic Facebook group she is a member of was circulating all of the foetal cell line stuff and waiting for Novavax (my sister in law waited) despite the Catholic Church being ok with vaccines. I have no idea if Jack Darling waited for that reason but it is a possibility he would like to keep his religious views private.  

Well there is a group of Christian nutters at wce (look at the doco on the 2020 season with their pre-game prayer groups etc) so it is a possibility

 

I'm surprised that neither WC nor the AFL have clearly stated that he has been actually vaccinated.

He could still get around the AFL protocols by getting an exemption for medical reasons.

I think the AFL want the issue resolved any way they can, regardless of protocols. Whatever it takes

 

National Cabinet has recommended that "close contact" rules be relaxed. When and to what extent will be left to each State.

This will be fun if they adopt different definitions

X can play this week in Melbourne and Sydney but not in Adelaide or Perth. 

NT... who knows

The way West Coast is going, they may be dipping into the top up players earlier than anyone anticipated. They're having a wretched run with injuries.

My heart bleeds.

Kelly is also out for round 1 because he’s tested positive for Covid. 
West Coast are cooked. Couldn’t happen to a club I hate more, unless it happened to Geelong.

Gold Coast are still $2.10 to win 

I've still tentatively tipped the Eagles only because I simply can't bring myself to tip against them at home against the Suns even given their preseason woes and now this. The writing is on the wall for the Eagles I just don't have the [censored] to tip against them yet. Hopefully they languish on the bottom for a while. It will be nice to travel to Perth for an easy win at our fortress.

The old Aaron Rodgers "I'm immunized" approach, I like it.

McGowan delayed the inevitable, but was always going to miraculously open up ‘just in time’ for the Eagles and Dockers. The irony is that he’s stuffed their list up - as all the other states had players away in January, and the Eagles are now just beginning to deal with it.

WA is the gift that keeps on giving.

Such short sighted BS from McGowan. WA will now go through the wave and delay families being reunited etc.

for what?

I'm predicting carnage in the next few rounds for the AFL as the Son of Omicron variant rips through the population in the coming weeks.

Yep. I just hope most of our guys have already had Covid, thereby reducing their risk of reinfection.

Winter is going to be bad again unfortunately. 

Collingwood have one (Hoskin Elliot) and Hawks have two (un named) players missing due to covid

Have to remember that the close contact rules for households still apply.

If these rules go the numbers absent each week will drop dramatically

If our players had it over Christmas/New Years then any immunity is probably gone now.

From what I understand triple jab + having had Covid provides decent long term immunity.

I might be wrong tho. The variants move and mutate so quickly these days. 

I am still waiting to get Covid. Fairly shocked it hasn't happened yet.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
