Injury report said available 

Some here say it was confirmed they were positive,  I only heard HS Protocols which at the time was for household contacts in Vic but notnsure AFL standards 

i think also the definition of a close contact is now less stringent

    Club operates re AFL ‘health and Safety’ protocols, not one state’s rules.  Assume these still have close contact iso provisions to meet the toughest standard (WA).  Don’t know if people are testing positive or just ‘close contacts’ under their rules?

     

    Did people notice the players greeting and touching fans after the match on ANZAC eve?  Wonder if this was the source of infection?

    If he does, that will clearly give Mitchell the edge! Never worked for Goody.

    Unfortunate for those affected but hawks on a 5 day break and starting to show signs of fatigue because of Mitchell’s gung ho game plan. We’ll win regardless

    We will still win imo as we have other players who can come in and play their role within the structure. 

    Go Dees.

    Yze said today he would coach from the box. Choco may be the man in the boundary role this week rather up the front than back

    Not sure you can automatically assume Lever and Viney will be back if they tested positive and were/are sick.

    Not sure about Lever but Viney is so tough he is currently running through brick walls and apparently gave Covid-19 a bad case of the Viney-22.

    Covid is out indefinitely

    Viney for Sparrow, Bedford/Melksham for Pickett. Dogga out sure hurts, as he gives Max a massive chop out.

    Hopefully no more out, but yesterday it was Goodwin, today is another 3, tomorrow? The whole round needs to be delayed so we can get our players back 😋

    Idk about last week, but post-match vs. GWS Maxy walked around the boundary touching as many hands as poss. And I know coz my hand was one of ‘em. 😁

    And I only had to elbow about 10 kids’ heads outta my way on the path to Maxy’s hand. 🙃

    Shows the importance of banking early wins and nailing close games.

    Given how we handled the last two years in the hub and 2021 I feel we have been very mature about rolling with the punches and just getting the job done

    OK   lose three,  gain two back. Only really down one senior player. Just allows the FD to have flexibility in selection.

     

    it is a pity but it is also a pity I did not win lotto last weekend.    We have the depth.

    We should still have more than enough quality to win this one, the Hawks are not at full strength either 

  • Quote

    It is what it is people. As long as it's just these 3 and no more pop up I'm confident we can cover them. Dogga was average last week and a game off will get him ripe for Saints. Kozzie didn't do that much but we will miss his one percenters. Sparrow been playing well but Viney covers him.

    Lever, Viney and a small to come in. Weid to assist in ruck. Simple and enough to give the Hawks a hiding.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
