Wonder if Trump will try and postpone the US election until 2021. It's like the rule book for many things has been thrown out

Interesting. I doubt Biden has any chance at this stage, but everything is changing so quickly

Is it a good time to put a POTUS age limit of 70 years and reduce the minimum age below the current 35???

Coronavirus may say 'yes'

    To be fair is that also due to an increase in testing? (Not a Donald apologist whatsoever) 

    I think the bigger statistic is always going to be the exponential increase in people dying, that's maybe where the idiots at Bondi might actually start taking notice.

    EDIT
    I live in the UK and Boris Johnson's plan has been to say to people the moment you notice any symptoms that are consistent with the virus you self isolate rather than get tested. This means getting a gauge on how many cases the UK actually has is a difficult thing to gather.

    yeah, interesting

    but.....confirmed cases is so misleading as most people who contract the virus are not tested.

    and china's reported numbers lately just look too low too quickly

    only reliable figure is possibly number of deaths, certainly the mortality figures are useless (deaths/confirmed cases)

    Are the schools still open in Australia or are they still having meetings and being interviewed by news crews every hour?

    My Daughter is a primary teacher, she is going to teach tomorrow, as there are many loopholes to cover. She only had four students today, but was given an extra class to look after. No body knows what’s happening!

    I've read a few reports where it's been acknowledged that in the West, actual cases, including asymptomatic, are probably x10 or x20 than what's being reported. Perhaps Germany excepted, as they have a pretty agressive "test anything that moves" approach, but for the rest of us, just add a zero.

    Trump is catching onto coronavirus.

    Some doctors in the US are already successfully treating corona virus patients.  This will all be over soon.

    Lets get back to work , life and to footy.   Lockdown is ridiculous.

    Lockdown is absolutely NOT ridiculous, its imperative. I hope its over soon, but i think we are looking at a minimum 3 months until any positive signs. The sooner everyone gets their head around it, the better. 

    The positives out of this wont be felt for a while but they will be plentiful, life will be balanced, people will rest and will connect, pollution is down, oceans are cleaner.

     

    Stay safe.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
