UEFA has left it to the individual leagues to decide their own order of merit. If it wasn't for television revenues they would all have closed down for the year.

I heard last night that either the J League or the K League were starting up again in the next few weeks. No crowds of course but wait for it... players will not be allowed to talk on the pitch !!!

    This is NOT sport related at all, but it IS virus related in as far as being a distraction from the mundane, that will waste just one hour of your life.  I'm only posting here because there seem to be fewer and fewer entering the General Discussion forum since bare knuckle political infighting was, understandably, frowned upon. I hope the Admins see fit to allow this (if not, please feel free to delete - or alternatively, move it to be a standalone post of its own ?).

    Anyway, to the reason for my post.  A few friends and myself have thrown a band together for a live stream from Sydney's Zen Studios next Sunday (10th May) from 3-4pm.  The band is called Los Tromeos & the Branch Covidians and we will be playing a bunch of rough and ready, raucous even, country and rockabilly type tunes.  And to make it releavant, two of us are Demons tragics. Here's a link to the Facebook Event if you would like to signify your interest (assuming there is any)...

    Liverpool players took a knee around the centre circle at Anfield in a message of support following the death in police custody of African-American George Floyd in Minneapolis.

    No I am not.

    What the police officer did was disgraceful and he should be tried for murder and the others that were there should be charged with accessory .

    There are lot of deaths caused worldwide by Governments and authorities of various countries to all races of people and nothing gets said.

    Regardless of that, the current protests focus on the BLM movement.

    It would be good if it was just a protest, but I would not call what is happening a protest more like anarchy fueled by groups with other agendas.

    Like the peaceful sign that read yesterday in Sydney " A good cop is a dead cop "


    any protest that breaks virus lockdown rules is just plain selfish and downright dangerous to the general public

    there are millions of other ways to protest

    Yeah, total anarchy by vested interest groups that have nothing to do with what happened to George Floyd. You can protest without violence, looting, arson and whatever else.

    Do you think they care about CoVid right now,  when ANother black person has been Killed whilst in custody.    He didn't die.    He was killed.    And arrested firstly in a racist fashion.

     

    These people ARE,  fighting for their lives. 

    How many do you imagine...  have taken their own lives,  due to racisms, over the years.?

    As a White Citizen it is very easy to say that...

    The Current President has been putting out Fires ? with Gasoline since Charlotteville. Where he would not condone the KKK

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
