GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs Western Bulldogs
Not our time. Not playing well enough. Perhaps later in the year. Last week and next will be more important season wise Happy to take a win though

TEAMS: Rd 11 vs Western Bulldogs
Would have preferred Mitch Brown to Weid frankly

COVID & AFL 2021
Agree and then both forward vaccinate and 7 day forward quarantine at designated foreign airport hotel. Massive reduction of risk and not that expensive in the scheme of things. Plus allocate local hotel quarantine by risk levels. Anyway...here we go again ?

How about this for an idea Here’s some news that may significantly alter life for tourists and the attractiveness of business hub Dubai – the United Arab Emirates said vaccinations against Covid-19 will be mandatory for people attending all “live events” from 6 June. The policy applies to all sports, cultural, social, arts exhibition, activities and events, a spokeswoman for the ministry of health said late on Tuesday. Attendees must also present a negative Covid-19 PCR test taken at least 48 hours before the event. The policy also appears to apply for weddings of up to 100 people. From the Guardian UK live Blog

Herald Sun Marvel Stadium could become the next Covid-19 hotspot as the State Government investigates reports an infected fan attended the clash between Essendon and North Melbourne.

Friday night football start time change? (but not this week)
But Bourke's Backyard was a must watch for all of Australia... Not only did they not start the program until 8:30 but as you say they would then go through all the pre game (which was really about advertising) before showing the game at 8:50

there's ample supply out there now. The problem was that although CSL were putting out 1M per week of AZ since mid March they had a further six week approval time for each batch which was only recently explained. There's now millions of doses of AZ in the system with 1M more being added every week.

COVID & AFL 2021
It will take a lot of luck to get out of this one. It has a chilling similarity to Taiwan ( two air crew eating out) and then moving through the community. Cases which were previously zero now 300 plus a day. Singapore with 30-40 per day after being close to zero. Elimination is almost impossible. If you can get the jab asap. Got my AZ 3 weeks ago and no problems

Petracca/Oliver: Greatest Midfield Duo of All-Time?
I'm getting that pre 2019 bathwater feeling and we all know how that ended The reality is that the two rarely perform at elite level in the same game. If they do then perhaps we have the makings of a great team.

TICKETING: Rd 11 vs Western Bulldogs
he actually said the public events section of health were reviewing the rules but no announcement this morning. I also assume that with roof closed Marvel is considered indoors. My guess is 50%.. perhaps 65% at best
- Calling it now!

NON MFC: Rd 10 2021
would have preferred the other way

CASEY: Rd 06 vs Sydney
Just back from the delights of Casey Fields. Entry took a while due to scanning and lots of Swans supporters needing to pay. Sat near the goals and watched Ben Brown closely for 3 quarters. Hardly ever got near the ball. Forward delivery was almost non existent. I took special notice of his positioning and leading and simply none of it came off. Noticed that he likes to break back to goal a lot. In the final quarter I thought that as Casey got on top the midfield could have done more to bring Brown into play but many just blazed away at goal. It just wasn't his day. TBH the Casey players were eassily the equal of their more fancied AFL bretheren. Finally.. they had run out of egg and bacon rolls PS they seem to have fixed the drainage problems that the ground had in 2019

CASEY: Rd 06 vs Sydney
