List squads down to 35 - who survives the chop?
Is the 35 the active list, so there will still be rookie lists and other other supplementary lists that seem to exsit?

Farewell Jesse Hogan
The word around Perth and in footy in general is unfortunately Hogan is representative of the "mental" health plague that is affecting players that is often more relevant to abusing substances that is being managed by clubs. Would like him back at the Dee's but it won't happen, Freo do need him on the field and I hope they help him get back on track.

Coronavirus & Other Sports
Whether that is true or not, unless there is a leak in China we'll never know (They are becoming more common how China didn't include 43,000 positive tests in their data as they had no symptoms, You can't trust data from China). The link was China's only high risk biological research centre thats run by their military (Like everything important n China) next to Wuhan. The rumour was some researchers made extra cash selling used test subjects (animals) for extra cash after they had been experimented on on the local food market. There are cases in the past of some being charged. Whether this was the cause of the virus as there was research ongoing for the corona family of diseases at the time as they work towards responses to them, as it is the same family of SARS for example. Latest leak from China in a report says it was a 57 yr old wet market merchant is patient 0. Whereas China currently still states they do not officially know The reason SARS was easily to get under control was you weren't contagious until you developed symptoms. Hence you could temperature scan every person before they boarded flights etc and quarantine them very quickly with a high hit rate. Covid-19 is not like that, but far less lethal than SARS which is good. In saying that the virus whether originating from a lab or nature, it does occur naturally in bats, simply poor hygiene and outdated special meals is the cause. In the end we need to isolate, wait for the peak and slowly go back to work and hopefully a vaccine is developed in the next 18months or so. Luckily the current reports says you can't get it twice, but its. still early days. .

heard that argument before somewhere just with other "special" players

DEBT DEMOLITION
This is a whole industry response and should not be on a club by club basis. As combined the AFL can get a better response.

GAMEDAY: Rd 01 vs West Coast

GAMEDAY: Rd 01 vs West Coast
Why did Viney stop, he would have broken through at that pace
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 01 vs West Coast
Where is the pressure on every player. they need to go 1;1 across the field and beat their opponent. We might lose but its make them accountable. Why in packs we stand around 2 feet from the action and ignore those outside!!

NON MFC: Round 01
its better watching using a radio call.

AFLW: SF vs GWS
Finally finished watching the game. GWS played much better for the majority of the game, really hunted the ball. But a great last quarter of attacking footy got us the win. Pearce said after the game they were swathing between two types of play, defensive and offensive and never settled on one until the last quarter. Hopefully they sort that out for next week in their mind and team strategy.

Are we the oldest sporting club?
On memory it is the oldest sporting club in the world to play at the highest level of its sport, continuously. Other clubs mentioned have or no longer play at the highest level for their sport throughout their existence. i.e cricket is now national teams.
- Noises I did not realise existed until tonight

AFL are a disgrace
They some crowd in to watch as they had pre-booked? whatever that means. About 80 people they said on tv.

AFLW: Rd 6 vs Carlton
We had our chances and didn't finish. We could have put the game away by half time. I guess lack of players at the end hurt as the clues are meant to be a fast side in the middle. Assuming the season continues?
