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.

    • 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 forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — 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 Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’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 isn’t a standard concept—it’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.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’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 wasn’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  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
