Turns out there may have been some truth to the virus rumour. https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/teams/geelong-cats/afl-finals-2021-why-geelong-lost-to-melbourne-preliminary-final-virus-players-sick-chris-scott-reaction-illness-news/news-story/201410701dd1d84b6206ec97e7389c9a

What is happening?! Even Luke Skywalker is on board!

You'd think he'd be the obvious choice, provided neither Neale nor RDB are in WA

No change. Sorry Jonesy.

No late changes. Jordon sub

Maybe game day emergency. In case someone gets hurt in the warm up

First game: a game in either 96 or 97 against the Bears in Brisbane. Sat next to what seemed the only other Melbourne supporter at the Gabba, and we got smashed. Best game: probably the comeback against Freo when Wonna went nuts. Was amazing, couldn't talk for 3 days after. Worst game: I dunno. I've been pretty lucky that the few games I've gone to have mostly been wins. My first game at the G we got done by the tigers, that wasn't much fun.

Don't think Jonesy will be sub, and fox footy have been saying he will fly home if he isn't.

It's either 6.20 or 6.25

Roosy was next in line to present the Jock McHale medal but couldn't get to WA.

Here's the Edmund article. https://www.sen.com.au/news/2021/09/08/melbourne-makes-attractive-pitch-to-wantaway-docker-cerra/

Hibbo's an interesting one, as is Melksham. It just seems like they have a great 1-2 games when they get back in, then drop off. Fingers crossed it's the next 2 for Hibbo

Could it be someone like ANB or Harmes? Chandler and JJ in the wings, may have to give up someone ok.

You had me until Dogga's tooth, that's way overs

Think the article has changed since I first read it. Originally said match committee had chosen Hibberd, then said something like Fox believe Hibberd will replace him. Either protecting his source or his original wording was a stretch.

My only concern is it means Hibbo has to play on Rohan, and petty on Cameron. Smith was a good match up for Cameron, and Rohan is good in the air.

Yeah, we're fine...

Pretty sure Treloar did the same but then Collingwood couldn't pay the $5 late fee.

There's another thread. Nibbler has a corked calf apparently MFC not concerned

No suspects at this stage but short, bald man with tattoos seen at the scene of the cork

Bevo did say Weightman was unlikely to play. Reckon the Bont gets up though

That was two teams that don't know how to defend. Port should beat them next week

Don't understand why Buckley would want to follow the Malthouse route and go to Carlton. Better off earning big bucks in the media, then coming back in 3-4 years at somewhere that isn't a complete basket case.

Infinitely better than he used to be. He used to write stuff like 'IF theres a better player than the Bont THEN there isn't'. Thanks for that Damo... Guy drives me crazy
