Sauce?

Can I go for the boring one and say tomato?

 

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

    Aaron Davey for Kozy, Jeff White for Jackson, Yze for Sparrow. I hope Cam Bruce is ready to switch sides, if Fritta is out. 

    no room for morton?

    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

    Is he out with concussion?


    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.

    Neita to pull the boots back on if this keeps up!

    I would have thought Sauce Baker would be ahead of him - BOG for Casey against the Toiges

     

    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.

    Presumably not a fan of the supergroup Cream. Anyone who remembers that band would automatically call Oskar Baker "Ginger" rather than "Sauce".

    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

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

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
