the English Football Association recognize it as the oldest club in the world. Either way they play in the =8th level in England in the football pyramid (with Premier League being 1st)

Premier League suspended until 30 April and we're carrying on here like it's business as usual (just sans fans), i really don't get it lol

we should be testing, testing, testing, but there aren't enough tests. I had a sore throat and some fatigue and what not during this week, and if i wanted to get tasted i'd have been told i'm not eligble to receive one. But yes it is crazy that a lot of sport is being suspended and we're seemingly happy to go for it.

Irish Demons duo return home in wake of corona crisis https://womens.afl/news/49367/irish-demons-duo-return-home-in-wake-of-corona-crisis Not ideal given the injury list.

Would look good next to our AFLX premiership.

Unless we win it

There are a few people willing to draw a line through him and i sort of understand when you're looking at it in terms of 'games played' etc. We can only go off what they tell us and they've said this is an unfortunate injury with no relation to his previous problems. We'll have to wait if there are any lingering issues as a result but a fit AVb is important to the team. Who knows how many games will be played in 3 months anyway.

Very happy for Kossie/Bedford - sad they don't get a crowd tho.

Greg O’Rourke - Head of the ALeague ‘We’re looking to compress the season.’ Six rounds of football trying to be crammed into 3/4 weeks. Guess it is easier for them at the tail end of the season

The Friday 5pm presser, the great mic drop timezone

Seems that the NRL will be behind closed door from Round 2. No crowds allowed at AFLW from tomorrow onwards. Surely we'll get an update about AFL shortly.

"BREAKING: The Prime Minister has announced non-essential, organised events of 500 people or more will be banned from Monday. That does not include schools or universities." Dang

sport around the world is being suspended. Premier League having a meeting after Arsenal Coach confirmed positive. F1 cancelled, cricket behind closed doors. Based on this it doesn't look too good for attending the footy anytime soon. Serves me right for being quietly optimistic for this season.

La liga in Spain on a minimum 2 week suspension. Champions league ties look problematic now. meanwhile in Victoria, Mclaren have pulled out of the f1 this weekend as a crew member has been diagnosed with corona. curious times for the decision makers

"At a press conference Monday, Gobert attempted to make a point about overreaction and fear by touching everything in sight before he left. He leaned over and touched all of the microphones and recorders." Bit of a Lol

NBA Just suspended the season. Wonder what the AFL will do.

Too logical for the AFL to implement but would be a good idea!. with KK and Nietzsche likely LTI what are the options for the club

Wonder how many MCC members pay their dual membership promptly. For the last few years (and this year no different) I just sign up a week or so before the season starts. Already have my entry - so no real rush for me

We've let inconsistent players go and kept some risks. Hopefully Burgess can keep the rest of the cattle on the pitch. Pardon my ignorance but what provisions can we make for long term injury replacements?

Where does Kent fit in at St Kilda these days anyway?

i know the AFL like a story but i'm sure reports/stories like the ones coming out aren't helping KK (even if true)

Who will pocket Frost in the first edition of the Frost Cup?

Was key player in 2 of our wins last year. Given some of the drafting/trading and his contract running down he'll need a good year which will hopefully spur him on. Handy versatile squad player.

if it's empty stadiums it'd be positive as we could watch WCE games without listening to the the excessive OTT booing.

I liked Frosty (for mixed reasons) and i've previously joined the somewhat unnecessary pile-ons on Omac last year due to the sideshow 2019 was for us. We have the players to replace Frosty based on the replies to this thread, with a fit bill of health they may even well surpass him based on team play/structure etc. Hopefully OMac has had a positive pre-season and is given a clean slate by the fans for this season.
