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.

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.

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    After a very wasteful first half of footy the Demons ended up cruising to a clinical victory over the Saints by 38 points at the MCG and ultimately reclaimed a coveted spot in the Top 4.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
