Eagles are down 12 players due to covid?!?!

So Emperor McGowan hasn't banned Covid out of existence over there in the Hermit Kingdom? 😱

Several Geelong platers have "clearly shown displeasure" when penalised but no 50s like in our practice game v Carlton.

Even handedness or softening in interpretation?

Geelong just look so slow, as in their finals of 2021.     And pretty undisciplined as well.

Early days but either Sydney are an awesome team in the making or Essendon are rubbish

Considering all players would be triple vaxxed why are they being knocked so hard?

Whole country is Hermit Kingdom for different reasons.

I know of a doc who hit the kerb falling from his bike whose helmet split open  but who only had a mild headache.  He would almost certainly had a severe head injury, quite possibly death. 
I certainly wouldn’t cycle without one. No guarantees but it helps. 

I had the same experience.

Without the helmet it would have been a fractured skull.

Surely players know they can rush a point in that scenario??

There was another one paid against Hickey and I still can't see why it was against him. One player don't jump as high and he's getting the Free. Look out Max.

I am well over 50 and my kids tell me I keep banging on about certain BS, repeating myself over certain things. Well I'm going to do it again and hopefully not annoy all my fellow Demonlanders.

Heeney is a gun. I reckon he is the cleanest player in AFL bar none.

I'm not watching the game but I see 14 scoring shots to the Swans and 13 to Geelong.
They must be getting it up their end at least.

Sydney are a quality side. Geelong needs to bugger off. I’m sick and tired of seeing the same bloody players doing the same bloody things. 

AND they only play well ONLY at Jeelong Moggie house for decrepit old and unloved dussies , but exchange the d for a p weak as footy team

WA has a very narrow definition of a 'close contact':  15 minutes if both not wearing a mask.  So most of the players probably don't have covid but are caught under that definition and have to isolate for 7 days.

It can happen over and over again to WA teams.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded.
