If that were true, he would be currently being tested, and it would be huge news. I know for sure McClure or Morris would be desperate to name names the way they did with the Freo player.

The person heard from the player's partner, who they work with. I'm just just the messenger!

No doubt any player with a cough or sniffle will be asked to stay away from the group for now. Possibly that, R57 and agree we need to be careful around misinformation. Just passing on literally what I heard. I won't name the player so as not to scuttlebutt. 1

Dee Watcher 71 Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 Its done...expect AFL to play round 1 behind closed doors as with other major events like conferences etc, Government telling all codes this behind closed doors at the moment so expect announcements closer to the dates as they don't want people to panic! 1

We may need a nostalgic return to the days of yore dc when a torn up newspaper had to suffice for those specific ablutions. Off course good old Henry V111 had a more innovative solution He employed a Royal ..... err .... wiper to do the job

Wait, so the government is telling sporting codes to play behind closed doors, but the announcement won't be until next week? That doesn't add up as they're still selling tickets to those matches. The first indication of possible closures would be the halting of ticket sales. If it came out that the AFL knew they were to have no one in the stands, and continued to sell tickets before they announced it, they could have a big lawsuit on their hands if they didn't reimburse people. Also, if it is true, the only reason the government is waiting is because of the GP this week. It's the same reason they waited until all GP staff from Italy were here before banning people from Italy. Don't get me wrong, I think it will happen, but I think it is still a few weeks away.

The don't want panic to happen as they don't want chaos to happen! You'll get refunded in full so don't stress re tickets but its a done deal but the government are trying to not have society breakdown at this stage.

Yes, but the F1 grand Prix is going ahead this Sunday.
