Off course good old Henry V111 had a more innovative solution   He employed a Royal ..... err .... wiper to do the job

Might finally have a use for the Herald Sun

 

They should let us train on the G from now on, as a precautionary measure. That way the players will also get used to the empty stands. Win Win.

Sorry, 'DAG'.   Its a bad habit I have,  of quoting someone instead of  just commenting,  to it.

A habit due to not understanding the quote processes, at the time, back then.  Now its an auto habit, I need to try to change.

Just make sure Rupert,  is facing up,  'dw'.

I'm surprised he doesn't have his image on the pound note, buy now.

I suppose One could always go direct to Bolts page and tear away. 

That would be the obvious alternative to rupert.

If I'm going to Bolt's page I'm hoping there is hand sanitiser available.

Bloody yanks

Considering the US went from a handful of cases and Trump bragging about how he has it under control, to 1,000+ cases in under a week, I’d say they’re probably making the right call.


Jesus we have 12 cases in Victoria. TWELVE in 5 million. The hysteria is ridiculous.

Apparently schools are likely to be shut down from next week... you think Corona is bad, just wait until parents can’t send their devil children to school or go to work themselves. Welcome to the end of the world!

Player testing will be expedited to keep season intact. 

 The standard time for a person being tested for COVID-19 and receiving the results is five days. But AFL players are expected to receive their findings sooner. 

Plan to expedite player testing to keep season intact

It shouldn't be any different to any other person.

Being self employed I can't afford the wait time either.

No special treatment for the AFL...

They had 12 cases in Italy at one point as well. Now it's over 10K, with hundreds dead.

Isolation and reducing contact is the only way of reducing infections. There is no cure, no vaccine.

Just saying.

As to the wisdom of reducing contact, isolation, and shutting things down (also as to how infectious this is):

"New York officials traced more than 50 coronavirus cases back to one attorney"

"Just two days after the man's positive results, on March 4, his 20-year-old son, a student at New York's Yeshiva University, also tested positive. The wife and 14-year-old daughter of the attorney both also tested positive on the same day. So did the neighbor who drove him to the hospital. And a friend of the attorney. The friend's wife, two sons and daughter tested positive that day too. The day after, on March 5, eight other people connected to the attorney tested positive for the virus."

etc.

I'm in France, and all very serious here. We have over 1000 cases (including 4 MP's)

I posted that on Monday morning. It's now Wednesday evening, and we're up to 2300 cases and 48 dead.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
