Is having to quarantine for 1-2 weeks considered a restriction impeding my ability to attend a GF?

but how would Cerra go on the podcast?

Can't remember specifics, but recall some poster in a thread said the Dees were interested in bringing him in

There have been Pat Lipinski rumors posted here before. Think we should sign that Weideman bloke as well.

Regardless of the result - probably cry

Yep i'm in the 30-39 bracket, even if i went AZ today I wouldn't be fully vaccinated until after the GF. If they did implement a fully-vaccinated policy at least that would reward the older dees fans that have been through more hell than some younger generations aha.

Back to watching games on Zoom with friends, what a shame. That being said, not sure how much fun i would be to be around if we do make the big dance.

Was a strange game, some players did have quiet periods and Melk didn't light it up - no debates there. Just think it is worth giving him one last go but might depend on how Bulldogs/Port go, maybe a late change, the old Chris Scott treatment

This is the part of the issue this week. I'd like to see Melky having another week but understand if he's not included. Tough week for the selectors.

I meant I have the GF Guarantee, but if its in WA and we make it, highly doubt I'll be able to go for various reasons.

Can I roll my GF guarantee over until next year? aha

Surprised there is no Tasmanian team in the A-League, would have been a good move whilst the AFL dillydally. At least the people of Tasmania are getting an NBL team, despite it having a horrible name. "Gillon McLachlan: "The Suns are not moving from the Gold Coast, and that's definitive." So if we're sticking to 18 teams a relocation looks inevitable, at least we're performing at the right time. You'd assume that we would be safe with our history anyway but who knows. Imagine if they try merged us with St Kilda in the future, Saints on one shoulder, Demon on another aha.

Thanks @M_9, the Injury Report stated he'd miss about 4-5 week, here's hoping he heals well/quick.

If Collingwood can claim a monopoly on Black and White stripes, we should rightfully be able to claim a monopoly on Satanic creatures.

As stated by a few others think the Anzac Day eve was his send off. Unfortunately I don't think Jones will have his fairy tale ending this year. Slipping down the pecking order with youth banging on the door. But cross any bridge when we get to it, a difficult task for him though

Hopefully we can snare a flag before the team is raided but happy for women's football with this.

What exactly did Hunt do to his ankle?

Enjoyed that video, liked seeing him receive the ball, distribute it and then an initial burst of speed to get into a new position/space to help progress the play. We're often a bit static at times so it was good to see.

Watching live it should have been a free kick but wasn't paid (uncertain if there was advantage). Also looked accidental but may be wrong there, still think some of the financial penalties should be changed, tripping being the same as wrestling etc seems funny to me

If both sides are complaining about the umpire, then they were generally ok/fair or downright terrible. On Monday I think they were ok, paid some soft ones by the laws of the game, made a few errors both ways. Wish there was an easier way to filter "dumb free kicks" and also "soft free kicks" from that differential without having to re-watch every game aha

Fear you may be right. Glad he got to the milestone with crowds in attendance.

So great to see some young guns coming through and we haven't even had a taste of Laurie and Rosman at senior level. Makes talk of 'trade targets' interesting cos there's so much potential with these young dees

I don't want to get ahead of myself, but it's just Melbourne's luck to be on top of the ladder towards the pointy end of the season and being faced in a scenario where the GF may be played interstate when many fans who have been through hell over the years may have trouble attending. Obviously all depends on COVID etc and restrictions. I don't care too much about the parade and some of that fan fare, but dream amount that moment, sitting at the G and hearing that final siren.

Definitely discriminated against, I know things are different during war time but during WW2 Italian Immigrants in Australia were heavily discriminated against and ~5000 civilians were interned by the government for being "enemy aliens". The treatment lingered and some families took a long time to financially recover etc. Imagine they clash unfortunately, but could all wear the same shirt before the game and have a big huddle together before the game starts.

well a few things, mainly Harmes played well but seemingly wasn't on for as long as others. Maybe less time to make an error aha. Nah well played all. Good win for Goodwin
