You're the one who should be jealous.

My copy of "The Raven" album has the rare and beautiful 3D cover ... and you're not getting it!  :cool:

Not gonna lie… jealous af. Wanna sell it? I’ve got a heap of fungibles and even more cryptos. Oh, and a bunch of buttons, badges and ribbons and a my lil pony.
Name yer price, devil-pebble. 

 

Brett Ratten's turn to miss this week due to Covid protocols. Not sure if he has Covid or is a close contact. Shows the importance of having a smooth running coaching team and not just relying on a singular, autocratic coach.

Speaking of.... I had the pleasure of a 3hr drive on Sunday so plonked the ABC on for the footy.. Mick Malthouse sounds like his mental capacity has declined these last few years out of the coaching spotlight. His commentary was all over the place.

The stand-in coaches are 3 for 3. All the tactics are worked out during the week, and gone are the days of the hot gospellers who motivated players on gameday.

Damn I have just tested positive to Covid my daughter who sits with us at the footy has just tested positive as well, I hope that We don’t get it as bad as WCW.  Waaaaasa.!!

I’m so sorry to hear that, DZ. Hopefully you and your daughter aren’t hit too hard by it. Rest up and drink plenty of water. And by plenty I mean minimum two and a half litres. 
Take it easy. 💖

Everyone should drink at least two litres of water per day EVERY day. (Two and a half to three litres if you’re unwell.) I do, and have done so for years. You’d be amazed at the difference it makes. 👌🏽


Now that close contacts will no longer need to isolate, at least not in Vic and NSW, we are less likely to lose a player for covid protocols. 

Only a matter of time before other east coast teams follow suit.

Do the rules regarding close contacts differ much between the States? If so, does this compromise the AFL competition? For example, could the WA teams lose more players to "Health and Safety Protocols" than Victoria and NSW?

I haven't checked all the states.  The pattern seems to be Vic and NSW act in lock-step re covid rules then other east coast states gradually follow.

Gil has said the game will go on and clubs use top players if necessary.  He has walked this talk when Eagles couldn't field an AFL team.

Yes, WA will and have had lost more players to covid protocols.

I assume that if there is an east coast player who is a close contact and his team play interstate the player will have to follow its iso rules.  Other than that most teams will only lose a player when he tests positive.

Poor BBB a few weeks too late for him, ended up missing 3 games when you facture in his suspension.

It appears Freo may have a few players in covid protocols:

"It’ll be a nervous week at Fremantle after its big win over Geelong. Rory Lobb, Blake Acres and Travis Colyer are believed to be isolating, ruling them out against the Roos, although the club is yet to confirm anything. Michael Frederick, Griffin Logue and Lloyd Meek were all notable absentees at training on Tuesday as the club waits on more test results...while Hayden Young and Heath Chapman will be eligible to return from their isolation periods".

Lucky for them they are playing North this week. 

Given the first Freo covid HS protocol case was reported on Monday and they played Geelong on Saturday I wouldn't be surprised if cases turn up at the Cats, unless the Freo guys are only 'close contacts' (by WA rules) which would seem long odds.

Health and safety protocols is a good name for a pub.

Would do good business too given people are always entering it.

190 might be wiped from the books this week.

If not we always have the chance to do it ourselves next week

 

I love how Whately has said that the Freos position is compromised due to 6 players out with COVID and playing the bottom team whilst he was completely mute on our position entering the Hawthorn game.
 

In fact nobody has really acknowledged what we were able to do. All I have heard is we look a bit off. FFS.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
