Pitto’s “ruck nerd” discussion that’s in today’s Age and various other places gives a good insight into how he tackles Gawn. It basically boils down to limiting where Gawn can direct his taps so that our midfielders can shark the ball.

just dont kick to Max wen he drifts into F50 ,make him accountable

Exactly, we have multiple marking goal kicking targets, he can't stand in front of them all.

In any case with the Dee outs, I suspect they want Gawn pushing F50 more than floating D50.

Imo, we just need to try and reduce Gawn's marking impact around the ground. Not worried about anything else he does, our mids can ruck to his hitouts.

Exactly.

Who is best placed to do that? IMO, Young.

The members lists tell you when someone last posted and last visited. EB1s last post was in July and he has not visited since the middle of August.

Let's just hope he is all well and enjoying life.

Tomorrow night at the MCG at 19:35.
The forecast is for no rain.
I read 7pm start somewhere, AFL website has 7.35 as you have stated.

The 19:35 is usual for night games, but the AFL have a history of changing things to suit TV.
