    True, they managed to pick up another 5,000 today too. I'm sure the players will be cautious.

    There needs to be a COVID ladder to see which club has missed the most players through H&SP
     

    actually, roy wa today got over 17,000 cases, the highest in the country by some margin

    i'm sure the club must be aware and will take precautions......i certainly hope so

    Thankfully our players' parents didn't 20-30 years ago.

    That will make them even more keen to get him.

    I'm sure they'd like Clarry and Kozzi too but good luck with any of it

    LJ seeing WC being unfit and ill disciplined should do wonders for us signing him on quickly

    Sorry ambiguous post, meant additional 5,000 on top of yesterdays number of 12,000 just phrased poorly. 

    At least the game next week isn't against a challenger if something does happen

    We can't just go into the next 2 weeks thinking these are walk in the park games. Eagles and North are done for the year and have nothing to lose so they won't have an issue taking risks. Rest anyone who is injured but if a rest isn't necessary then leave it be. If We play hard and decimate in seemingly simpler games then get the 8 points and get a percentage boost as a buffer. Many say that the next best teams after us are a long way from us but really they aren't that far. Freo and Brisbane have only dropped 1 game and from recent matches have a handy percentage boost. We drop a game as it stands and we drop to 3rd - we can't be complacent. We play each game hard and don't back down

     

    In Goodwin's press conf this morning it sounded like no changes.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • 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.
