Not necessarily.ย

Viney and Lever tested positive last week and they were the only 2 to missย 

Was it confirmed they were both positive?

ย 

Geez it didnt take long for Sammy Edmund to buckle on reporting on the names.ย 

All 3 reasonably coverable.ย 

Is Dunstan out given the head knock?

I think ins are:

Lever, TMac (LJ), Bedford (Kozzy) & Viney (Sparrow). Melksham sub.ย

So far I've had worse colds that this and certainly "Man Flue" is far worse.

Thatโ€™s what I thought when I was posting on here being a smartar*se about having spread covid germs to all the Essendon fans surrounding me at the game. Twelve hours later I was preparing my last Will and Testament.ย 

Dante, rest heaps and drink plenty of water. Two to two and a half litres daily, minimum.ย 

Would Melksham come in for Pickett? Give him a go? Its a shame because Pickett's been playing some good footy.

Well it could be worse. It could have been gawn, trac, may or Oliver.ย

Forced changes:

Viney in for Sparrow.

Tmac in for Jackson.

Unforced change:

Lever in for Smith.

Not sure about T Mac, only because it's forecast to be very wet on Saturday with between 15-35mm rain. It might be better to use Weideman as Gawn's little helper and replace Jackson with a smaller player.

Opportunity here for the "move Smith to the forward line" proponents to argue that Smith could be moved forward to ruck/forward just for this game to see how he goes.ย 

Not so sure that will be the end of it, but sportsbet market just back up, and we're $1.21.ย  Maybe that's all the outs after all

  • Whispering_Jack changed the title to Covid19 claims Goodwin, Jackson, Pickett & Sparrow

Hawks still paying $4.45!!

bet responsibly

I'm taking the opportunity to watch some of the floggings we've handed out recently, currently the GWS game.

I'm just glad it's happened when we were playing good football, imagine if it was in the middle of our one or two wins a season.


I'm outside of Australia so not too sure on the current rules... does a player only miss if they test positive or can they also have to isolate if they're a close contact?

Our pressure rating would go from 200 to about 80 on that move alone

Close contacts no longer have to be in isolation. Thatโ€™s not just regarding the AFL. This is statewide.ย 

[censored] me, the thread title stating "Covid19 claims" is a bit intense...

Thanks - so that means every time we hear "Entered Health and Safety Protocols' in the media and team selections, that basically means 'Tested Positive for Covid'?

I bet they donโ€™t play Tmac and we ruck Weideman. Hawks have no ruckman and itโ€™s gonna be so wet. We donโ€™t need to go tall.ย

You reckon it could have been worse Dante? Gee wiz!ย ๐Ÿ˜

Other than the health concerns of those affected I see this as nothing but positive.

Gives us a chance to blood some new talent and see how they perform on the big stage.

Can't wait to see who comes in. Demonland podcast gave a good summary of who's been playing well in the VFL.

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

Agreed, and a week isolating increases the chance of soft tissue injury, give them another week

and they must pass 5 rats tests in 7 days. that's vic, may be more stringent for afl (e.g. pcrs?)

I haven't heard that the AFL has reduced protocols in line with Victoriaย 

Assume WA is different at the moment

My understanding is AFL would have maintained higher standards to protect game or highest State standards for fairness (but only my uninformed view)

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

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
