GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs Western Bulldogs
Yes! 1:45 left on the clock at the centre bounce. 1 free at the bounce, then a block. Lever took a mark not paid and then holding the ball against Jordan when he didn't have it. Completely outrages. If you get the chance, watch that last 2 mins and tell me they weren't trying to give the Dogs a goal to try and make a contest. Hope we hit the Sullivan line next quarter. Go Dees!

If it's logged in AIR - Australian Immunisation Register (via your Medicare details) it will appear in your My Health Record (if you have one) So....there is a system to use already

Yep, Indian variant. 50% more contagious than UK variant. It would be very Melbourne for us to thrash the dogs this Friday and then watch the season go down the toilet haha.

COVID & AFL 2021
Yep, my bad, government warned months ago and a formal pre-budget submission tabled three months ago. Not 12 months https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2021/apr/09/frustrated-experts-say-australia-could-already-be-producing-mrna-covid-vaccines-if-it-had-acted-earlier Anyways, this is skewing away from footy. Hope it all calms down.

COVID & AFL 2021
Had the first AZ shot on Monday. A bit wonky yesterday but fine today. Most people don't know anyone that's been seriously sick from Covid. I think that's one of the big drivers for complacency. This study on the neurological effects of Covid made up my mind pretty quickly. 1 in 3. https://www.ft.com/content/beb407c0-03a3-4aae-ba4b-7f66390d7409 Heard a federal MP banging on about the latest Vic outbreak and how people should have been vaccinated pffft. And yes, scientists recommend to the feds almost 12 months ago to ramp up onshore MRNA manufacturing capabilities

There are always inherent health risks when going to a pies game.

Umps got it wrong - need a please explain
I wonder if we are coached to just put our heads down and suck up the umpires decision.

Yeah, a draw would have really helped last night just to stay clear

What's better than beating the pies by ten goals? Beating them by a point!

Should Gawn have played the percentages and tried to force a draw?
YES!

CASEY: Rd 06 vs Sydney
Chandler is going to be allright. Great goal

POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs Adelaide
I gotta have a vent about Sparrow. With 8 minutes to go, we're sixteen points up and Melksham is off with a sore foot and his boot off. Why wouldn't you put a fresh player like Sparrow on? Goodwin was right there on the bench. At a bigger picture, everyone is lamenting Viney not being back. Sparrow has been the obvious replacement for him and I don't know why we're not putting games into him. He's been performing really well at VFL level and this week he just sat in his tracky dacks. We had the opportunity to play him for a couple of weeks and with Viney being a load managed 50/50 proposition, I don't know why we haven't played him. It's best to put games into him now in case Vineys foot explodes again on the eve of the finals. It would have been a good ten minutes to have him on the field tonight.

AFL need to look into Rhys Mathieson!
As mentioned above, umpires need to be held accountable and their performance reviewed. Rules are already there for ducking and staging. They're not enforced. This whole interepative rule of the week to be enforced swill is making the game look as stupid as Rugby Union. The fact Selwood has got away for it for so many years is not Selwoods fault.

Commentators declare high shot is worth a fine. MRP take note (and it's Richmond $1k should do)
