Look, I acknowledge a VFL bias as much as the next non-Victorian, but I don't think there's a chance in hell they postpone games this year, especially after they've forced one team to go ahead.

Those that cheered the border being closed longer didn’t have “what about the footy season!” as their prime concern.
I know it was finals v regular season, but didn't they do exactly this in the AFLW?
If we only we had another thread where this could be discussed....
The club clearly has a problem with this - basically 1000% higher rate of H&S Protocols to our mates down the road.
Not to go Full Caro but you have to question whether players are taking due care.

Most of them have kids, what are they supposed to do? It’s running rampant in schools
Surely postponement is almost an option… Surely 
Highly doubt, this is why the AFL created the Covid top up listSurely postponement is almost an option… Surely
Players have been in a bubble for basically the last two seasons, they've still got lives to live and as others have mentioned many with young families who are going to get exposed to it.
Yes I would be staggered if the players aren’t following the protocols etc. Unfortunately with an older, more mature squad this was expected. I’m not surprised one bit honestly

Anyone that is hasn't really been paying attention. Been happening in pretty much every sporting comp around the world, once it gets in it'll rip through. Not sure it's anyone's fault or much can be done

Can't wait to hear how many of our top ups are in health and safety protocols as well.
yeah doubt it will get moved unless we have gone through all our 20 top up players. Its going to happen to other teams one would imagine. Freo have 2 cases and it could balloon out for them for the Derby.

Collingwood got their W final postponed, but that was because the lists are so small and they literally couldn't field a side.
No chance this gets postponed unless every senior footy player in the WAFL is out.

This is getting beyond a joke. Players getting covid is one thing.
Suspect it will be a case of “if you test negative you are on the plane” tomorrow

They won’t postpone, and that’s frustrating but not really an issue if that’s the line they hold. This is what the top ups are for. I know it sucks for us but it’s bad luck, don’t mind a show must go on attitude.
The issue comes in if they don’t postpone this but do postpone something in future. No problem with a “no postpone and play an entire team of top ups” policy if that’s the line they’re drawing. Let’s see if it’s the same policy when the Anzac Day game is in doubt.

If Simo is out, who coaches?

Pardon the intrusion, it seems your coach might provide some clarity about who's in and who's out when he does a presser in half an hour.

They just poll BigFooty and will go in with the “just have a ******* crack, stop stuffing around with it” strategy. Nic Nat to punch it forward at every stoppage and the mystified Roos will have no answer or adjustments.
200-0 victory imminent.
