How's our luck?

Awesome just what we need...... bloody hell!

The Dockers were on QF 481 from Melbourne, but the club says no players or staff are showing symptoms of the virus.

I hope so...

Just our luck

Any chance He was sitting next to Ryan Murphy?

Any chance He was sitting next to Ryan Murphy?

He was sitting next to Pav and Sandi, until halfway through when he moved to the window seat next to Haselby, before returning to his original seat past Mundy, Suban, Duffield and Tarrant to find that Pav had swapped with Stephen Hill.

I couldn't think of anything worse than that.

My heart will bleed if Murphy gets sick.

Add Crowley in as he was at the game and might have flown back to WA with the boys

Awesome Sandi taps to Haselby then richmond are too scared to tackle any dockers players. Freo wins 250 goals to nil

Most of our players are too scared to tackle anyway. We could play a team full of Jennifer Hawkins lookalikes and they would still run away.

Simple solution - move Fremantle v Richmond game to Saturday June 13 (N) and move the Richmond v West Coast game from June 13 to Saturday June 20 (Day).

Would also means Terry Wallace gets a week off from media battering and would coach his (likely) last game against the Western Bulldogs.

What better way to go out - in his 500th game as player/coach than a thrashing at the hands of the Bulldogs?

Only too sure they'd be happy to hand it out.

Let's hope Palmer didn't travel.

I reckon if we lined all our infected players up as sort of handball chain (i.e sandi to hase who handpasses to hill, to mundy etc) until it gets to Pav 15m out directly in front who kicks the goal. At this rate we could kick a goal every 15 seconds, which equal 80 goals a quarter, which is 320 goals to nil

Match Report

Fremantle: 80.0 160.0 240.0 320.0 (1920)
Richmond: 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 (0)

Goals:
Fremantle: Pavlich 320.
Richmond: Nil

Best:
Fremantle: Pavlich, Sandilands, Haselby, Mundy, Hill etc
Richmond: Nil

Injuries: Pavlich (Goal Poisoning)

Didnt see him at the game but pre-game Crowley was out on the park on crutches.

 

[Parasite]

I like it, my Supercoach team would like..

Sandi down to Mundy, Short Kick to Suban, Short Kick to Hasleby takes a contested mark against Pavlich. Short Kick to Pavlich - contested mark with Mundy. Goal.

(Not sure if contested marks count when the contest is against your own man, but I'll pay it anyway).

i don't like that solution...i'm coming over for the game, and would be greatly disappointed if i had to watch west coast play!

This could be a real threat to our aboriginie players on the list.

Aboriginal people are genetically more susceptible to colds and flus because they havent built up a resistance to "western diseases" like cold and flu over the years. For thousands of years they were protected by their isolation which makes them susceptible.

I hope the club is putting them on high monitoring in case they come down with something.

 

[estibador]

An Aboriginal guy stole your missus didn't he Bushman?

I think you'd fit in more over here.

If it's really swine flu, how come McBurney and company haven't caught it yet??

 

[Chops_a_must]

Ahhhh... GJ...

If there is a better advertisement for conservative politics, I'm yet to see it.

A bit of an "update" i suppose, a media statement by CEO Steve Rosich

http://www.fremantlefc.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/7009/newsid/77567/default.aspx

However, after further investigation by the club it was established that a member of the administrative staff, who was not part of the official travelling party, was sitting in close proximity to the passenger.

“As a result, this staff member is receiving direct advice from the Health Department and our club doctor,” Rosich said.

Hope it's not serious for whoever it is

Nah. Low mortality rate (14,000 + worldwide infected, fewer than 73 deaths if you accept the Mexican govt stats, only just over 100 if you don't). Important to remember (at least IMHO) that almost 10,000 Australians die every year from 'regular' seasonal influenza or its complications - nothing so far to suggest this new strain is particularly vicious by comparison...

The 'new porker bird flu' should only become a problem if it mutates further.

On the other hand, if the staff member was Malaxos, he probably shared the dude's food, so who knows what might happen.

Would fix our carp percentage too, brining it up to 286.5% by my calculations.
