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.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • NON-MFC: Round 14

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt? Follow all the non-Melbourne games here and join the conversation as the ladder continues to take shape.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
