Its strange isnt it?
I cant wait. Having been deprived, I couldn't really give a **** if they played 2 x 5 minute halves in spacesuits and Brad Scott had to sit in my lounge room.
Will draw the line at Barad Scott though.

I have my doubts we'll be able to complete this season, but if we do we're really going to be well placed.This year we were close to unstoppable and we might still be, but having a interrupted and shorten season i don't think will suit us.
I for one am ecstatic that footy is back and feel sorry for the people that wallow in the fact that it won't be the same, better than nothing, I will revel in watching the somewhat compromised training but won't report on PRE, too much negativity here for mine.
Not as tainted as the war flags. Yet they still count towards their clubs' totals.
(Was there one year where only four clubs competed? In any case teams were compromised with players away on duty.)

the Ignore function is very useful tool
And with no bye, having the depth to be able to rest players will help manage the load. No one has greater depth than the reigning AFL/VFL champions.I can't see how anyone could suggest this wouldn't be to our advantage.
The main thing a shorter season with shorter playing time will do is mean the best players play a bigger percentage of the game.
How could that not be to the advantage of the best team in the competition?
Just wondering @caesar regardless of whether you post your training reports or not, (I'm in the hoping you do crowd). ... will you need to stay on the move as you watch training, so you fall within the strict guidelines for leaving home for one of the following 5 reasons?

Stay well with these 6 simple steps to protect yourself and others.www.dhhs.vic.gov.au
There are five reasons that you can leave home:
I'm thinking you can either spend a couple of hours on the Punt Rd footpath doing a variety of stretching manoeuvres and jogging up and down on the spot..... or alternatively, if the cops pull up you can always say you are visiting loved ones and adhering to the rules!
- shop for food and other necessary goods and services
- access medical services or provide caregiving – for example, this includes shared parenting obligations or providing care and support to an unwell, disabled, elderly or pregnant friend or relative
- attend work or education where you can’t do those things from home
- exercise and participate in some recreational activities adhering to the rules
- visit friends, family and loved ones while adhering to the rules
Hmm, I might require some crowd funding for the fines
hey Caesar, loved your reports and will miss them if you don’t post - does pm work in this case.
stay safe if you do travel into punt road

I suggest you say what I use to do when I’d park the car on game day and that is walking around Punt Rd trying to find my carHmm, I might require some crowd funding for the fines

It sounds right and of course I hope you are right. But I am a bit worried that the more time spent on the ground and the shorter quarters means greater speed and greater intensity, and has the potential to cause a greater number of injuries.Yep exactly and depth makes a good team but stars make a good team great.
Think of how Dustin tore the throat out of the finals last year, then imagine him playing 5-10% more of the game. Ditto Lynch, Grimes, Prestia etc....
