Helpful that Langdon plays the whole game on the southern wing side. Will make it easier for Yze to communicate with the bench.

even better, just get langdon to play both wings.....i'm sure he could manage it

I've heard there's no further cases than those reported. Stiff on SOS, who would have been in line for a debut. 

Is he out with concussion?

Not worried about our outs as they are not in the same 'line' on the field.  We can cover our 2nd ruck, rotating mid and small forward without upsetting the synergy of the team.

If we get more cases the risk is if they are concentrated in one part of the ground it starts to upset our synergy, ball movement and defensive patterns. 

Even then if everyone brings effort and attitude we will get the job done.

While everyone is acting like Nervous Nellie waiting for the next imaginary Covid19 test result, the Hawks have some injury concerns of their own to worry about.

CJ Jiath, Mitch Lewis and McEvoy all pretty important players for the Dorks.

Casey v Box Hill at this stage...

No way does Majak play. It's going to be bucketing down raining. They'll go for the extra small whether that's Melksham or Chandler.

I watched Melksham very closely last week Dazzle and his intensity was there definately! I would not be at all surprised to see him in the team at all!

Well can we just say....there are known knowns and there are unknown knowns and there are known unknowns.

The real problem are the ‘unknown unknowns.’

They’re the ones that get you.

From another sauce I've heard another 3 with testing positive with more still to occur. Crikey there could be 8 or 9 changes by start time. Don't need to say not great preparation however cometh the hour cometh the man. Hope none of our "Superstars" are affected.

Perfect football weather:  Wind and rain in the morning.  Sunny afternoon.  Light winds in the evening.

MCG surface will be dry as a bone by the time the game starts.

Brings T Mac back into contention but I'm starting to warm a little for Melksham

It would be unlikely Toby Bedford avoids infection with his 2 housemates positive 

Not sure about that. I know of 3 cases (friends) where co-habitants have not been infected.

Same. I know spouses who share a bed where one got Covid and the other didn’t.

If Tom doesn't get a guernsey this week he may as well apply for the Giants coaching job.

He probably needs to kick five and hit Weid lace out on the chest( he'll spill them ) to hold his spot

Could I ask people who want to post rumours about supposed Covid19 cases to state the source of the basis of the claims made.

I've heard Fauci created covid in a lab when on a secondment in China.

Source: too many to mention, but they include Marjorie Taylor Greene  Tucker Carlson, Elon Musk and the New York Post

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
