Isn't "flu like symptoms" the way they are describing it these days, presumably to prevent triggering the facebook certified medical experts? 

he could have anything from a 24 hour sniffle to covid

we just don't know

will be a nervous wait

    Not to raise the alarm but I’ve just come out the other side of the flu, 1 week properly bed ridden and then 2 weeks well below par to follow.

    I’m not old (37) nor am I an elite athlete but I’m fitter than most. This is the sickest I’ve ever been 

    Hope Clarry is ok 

    I’ve had the flu twice over the years it’s horrible. First time I was literally imagining things with a temp in the 40’s. Second time bed ridden for 10 days.

    alright i may have been triggered. i ain’t no doctor but i work for a company that makes a influenza vaccine. 

    experiencing an influenza infection means you are out of action for two weeks and likely in bed for 5 days. 

    people refer to flu as having a cold or more accurately flu like symptoms. We have not been told Clarry has an influenza infection. he has a cold or a random viral infection. let’s see how he pulls up. he’ll be fine. if he is hydrated and energetic on monday he will play

    Yeah he'd have to be pretty sick to miss surely. A few days to recover he'll be right!

    Don’t mess with overexertimg and flu.   Can have very very serious consequences.

    Is this a trick question? The players never toss the coin.

    I’ve had some bad doses of man flu as well.

    But if Clarry is training as reported (away from the group), it can’t be that bad.

    It's April 2023 and some people still think that the team will line up as announced on Thursday night.  :rolleyes:

    yes, they never do, but Chandler at half back is just plain hilarious.

    As much as I've always liked seeing a team named in position, they may as well just post the selected squad in alphabetical or jumper number order these days.

    Between the lines I am asking as to who will captain the Dees on Monday.

    "Tossing the coin" is just an old saying saying meaning who is captain today.

    Reverse order please.

    I bet Yeates, Yze and Ziebell were always annoyed at school when the teacher marking the roll started at A and said "You can go when I've called your name".

    It's a home game so should have GA access on your membership.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
