If he is not playing at Freo I doubt he would be playing for us. Sadly the young man has problems. I hope it works out for him, because I genuinely fear for his future. Mystified that we cannot hit targets kicking inside 50, or why we spray easy shots on goal constantly. They are professional footballers for Christ sake yet kick like school kids once the sticks are in front of them. Infuriating.

Sadly this post is mostly spot on.

How is it that a team like West Coast always look like they are kicking into a forward line with 4 people in it, while we seem to have 60 people inside the forward 50? The fact Weideman hasn't come on would be a huge concern to our coaches. We have been overlooking big forwards while recruiting tall backs. SURELY a power forward must be our next free agency target. If you are going to constantly bomb the ball from 70m out, you need a Tom Hawkins etc to knock defenders on their ahss. McDonald is incapable of doing that and cannot take a pack mark to save himself. And when your ability to lead into space is taken away, you have no tools. I'll bet they are now praying for Petty to become what Weideman was supposed to be Great thing that we are constantly winning the inside 50's, even against the best sides, but we still get smashed. Surely we lead the league for shots on goal INaccuracy. It's a bloody embarrassment.

Worst part of the 10 week break is that we have time to build up our hopes again. That allows the team to kill our hopes twice in one season.

No abuse there whatsoever sport. The AFL relies on a certain number of games being played for the T.V money that comes with it. I get your feelings are hurt over the Women not getting their final, but how would the public respond to coming back for 3 finals and nothing else? The mens comp has only had a single round, so it will actually feel like finals once the remainder of the season is played, whereas the Womens comp will be like the start of a new season. The entire code is in trouble here, and the obvious long term benefit of having a Womens comp does not help the AFL NOW. It in fact is an expense that they cannot afford. While I am a fan of AFLW and our girls........ Priorities.

Could make it a reality show. 8 weeks of Robbo doing winery tours.

Oh wake up!!!!!!!!! The entire competition will be on its knees financially by the end of the season and you want to bleat about a comp that COSTS money because "sexism"? Pull you head out of your dot.

Always a solid fallback position. Thinking of doing the same myself.

At least the AFL will bring in a mid-season draft so the Dees fans can still enjoy their favourite part of the season while everything else is cancelled.

One in all in. How good was that. I've been on the girls since they started. A Demon is a Demon. This is proof that our Mens team thinks the same. Get on board, and GO DEES!!!!!!

I think the potential economic impacts of this Chinese virus are being grossly underrated on this site. I'm personally very worried about the poor bastards who rely on casual work to pay the bills, as they are the easiest to cast aside when things get quiet. I'm much more worried for the elderly who may very well die from the virus itself, of at least face hardship because they are too scared to leave the house because the infected hoards are ignoring the risk in order to play stacks-on at the local supermarket. As much as i dislike lefty politics, this is not a left v right thing. It's literally survival of the fittest. That breaks my heart.

So nobody is going to drink with @Bizzell Blitz ? Bloody scomo.

Didnt listen to radio coverage. Did they use canned sound?

Why wouldn't they? You never got a gobfull of slag during a game of footy? Disgusting yes, but a part of high intensity sport.

The Bulldogs were scared of their own shadows tonight. The coaching team will have some horrific footage to sort through post game. Pies were ok. Grundy was a mountain, and others did some ok things but I wan't blown away by them either, as their opponent was abysmal.

What a fantastic initiative. Proud of you guys. No way in hell I would ever be caught singing on social media, so i just donated $50 to offset the cost for you. Keep up the great work, and thank you.

Wow, def need more info about that internet. It [censored] me where I am now. My lovely wife is currently spending $30 grand plus on a gym for me at home (Airlie Beach), right next to our pool. Moving along nicely. I've always been a self quarantiner so its perfect.

Some of my family laughed at me when I installed bum guns in my house. Who's laughing now? Jesus, that internet is crazy.

Haha, could be worse. Have you been to the Solomon Islands before? I'd rather have the virus than be house bound there.

Deadly to retirement aged folk, but ridiculously overhyped compared to seasonal flu. I wonder what the difference is this time?

I'm obviously a righty, but you are 100% correct. That's a garbage, over the top front page. They should be ashamed.

Media. Although if they are relaying a govt message I guess the blame lays elsewhere.

Aussies going prehistoric over the exact same illness. Do the Taiwanese watch as much T.V as we do here? The media is hyping the bejeezus out of this. I'm sure that contributes to the hoarding.

Why do people revert to neanderthal behaviours in times like this? I've got (wifes) family in Philippines who had just had their islands locked down for 2 weeks and a father in law on deaths door from tuberculosis.. I'm bloody nervous and my wife was balling her eyes out. The locals have blackbanned the entire family because one cousin has a Korean boyfriend. Hard times bring out the best, but certainly the worst in people. Take care of your oldies guys, because this thing is coming for them.

As much as this virus is a nasty bastard that is killing people, I have to agree with this. The AFL is a monster that consumes vast amounts of money, and this is not like coal mining where you can declare force majeure and not pay people or cease supply without consequence Poor bloke is in a very nasty position. He would be stressing his arz off right now. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force_majeure
