Exactly. Stop transmission? No, not completely. Reduce transmission? Yes. Which is one the reasons why it is so important to get Vax rates up in Sydney and Melbourne And why it is so important we now suppress the spread. And why misinformed views suggesting vaccines do nothing to stop the spread are so dangerous

Once again, this is simply wrong. And it is really dangerous misinformation, not to mention unhelpful.

I'll bet you Damien Barret agrees with Alanis Morissette's definition of irony. Don't let the sliding door hit you on the way out Damo.

That is just plain wrong. Please save yourself the effort of replying, arguing or asking me to explain why. Do some reading of the basic facts. There is reams of useful, accurate information out there. For Pete's sake, how people could not understand the basics about this disease and the response to it this far into the pandemic just blows my mind. But it certainly explains a lot of about peoples choices, their behavior and the situation we are in.

The footy gods are all powerful. But not above some mischief making, as Eddie 'my old mate (insert some rich blokes name here)' McGuire recently found out.

I'm Gary Lyon. And so's my wife.

Do you you know what will hurt more than not being able to go to the g to see tge dees play a GF? Not making it to one this year. Ir we di make it, of course it is upsetting not to be able to go. All those hundreds of matches sitting at the top of the ponsford, and miss this one. But there it is I'm thrilled for fans like you psd, mcquuen, et, chook in Perth and all the other WA fans. It really is awesome for you all. And great reward for sticking fat with dees in eagle town. In rhe lead up to the prelim you will all be able to fly tge red and blue with pride I hope you all can get tickets for tge prelim and gf, if we make it (a stress that I won't have to bother with, which is a small mercy) And leaving aside the disappointment of the gf not being at the g, obtus oval is a great option. It will be a fantastic event. And us vics will get our chance next year and beyond. And those chances will mean so much more because if missing out this year We are a seriously good unit, with the perfect list age and talent wise to be a force for the next five years. Compare us to the Eagles and cats. They are super reliant on blokes 30 and over. Our most senior players cant even get a game. Go redlegs

Agree. Port have come into form a the right time, and have most, if not all, of their best 22 back. And they get the advantage of the home finals. The dogs have been off their tucker of late but got the contest part of their game back on track last week. If they get get back to their best they are a huge chance as their best is best is a better than than Ports best reckon. And Beveridge loves the us against them narrative, so might well thrive in front of the Port ferals fans

I'm a Smith fan, but he struggles one on one against natural forwards who read the ball in flight and use their body well. A player like Fritter would give him a bath. Cameron is one of the bets in the business, one on one, so it was always going to be tough ask for Smith. However, to balance the critique of his performance against Cameron it is important to note that he kept him to one possession and a point in the second quarter when we won the game. And significantly Goody kept Smith on him all game. So must have been pretty happy with with the defensive set up across the board. For me it depends on matchups. he is perfect for Geelong as they run with three talls and only Hawkins is really stay at home forward, so Smith can stay with Rohan and Cameron running. All that said, if Hunt is ready to go for the finals i'd bring him in a flash, with Smith the unlucky out.

Not at all sue. To be honest, I find the narrative of the AFL as a Machiavellian puppet master all a bit silly.

For those criticising the AFL, the tribunal is independent. The AFL asked for six weeks

Given he pleaded not guilty and the afl.asked for 6, 3 weeks is a joke. The afl should appeal

That's exactly what I thought. Stupid beyond words given he can't deny contact. Will deservedly add 2 weeks to his penalty, impacting the start of their 2022 season. What are they thinking?

I'm taking it one week at time. So no comment until Friday 7:51 pm

Didn't take you for an anti vaxxer jaded

Loving watching an elimination final and nor caring in the least about the result in terms of its impact on our premiership chances

I don't have the numbers, but I suspect the overwhelming majority of goals kicked against us have been my mid sized forwards. Definitely our weakest area defensively. That said it is skewed a bit because opposition big forwards don't mark it inside 50, and the ball almost always come to ground, so ground ball get goals are basically the only way teams can scoring goals against us. Last night was the perfect example of thst phenomenon. The bottom line is goody is not going to be too fussed if a player like Cameron kicks 5 if the opposition only kicks 8 or 9 in total

100% agree on all points.

Fair points. Loved him, moved a bit like Robbie, and like many dees fans was desperate for him to come to the dees. From memory he was close to doing so at one point.

Go Redlegs

They will take a squad to Adelaide, on the assumption that they will go straight to Perth. Every player that goes to Adelaide will be a chance to get a gig. I've been thinking about the chance of Jonesy being a medi sub in finals. In terms of selection, Goody is a funny mix of pragmatism, sticking with winning teams and left field selections. Who can forget the decision to bring Smith in for fritter in the 2018 prelim. And that was after bringing in vanders late in the season, which was made more curious because viney had come into the team late in the season too and so there was a risk with two players returning from injury. Goody can be hard nosed, as Fritter and now Jordon know all too well, but he loves loyalty too, and has a dash of romanticism about him. So I could see goody making Jones a medi sub in this game and/or the prelim. Would bring his energy and spirit into the group, and a heart and soul intangible. And in many ways he would be the perfect sub to come into a high pressure finals game. He is obviously very experienced. I assume has played in more finals than any other dees player. Coming in fresh, say in the last quarter, he can impact with his strength and physicality. and can play in multiple positions, including as a defensive forward on Rich (though he might be a touch slow for that job). When do they announce the med i sub?

Genuinely surprised jj is not in for Captain Jack.

Absolutely. I didn't pick that up live, but if lever had made any move to play on it had to be 50 metres. He was basically directly in front of lever
