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.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    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
