I was referring to, 'Pre',  time is up.  Locking the bugs out of a nightime, dc.  and the precious rolls in safe hands. ?

[Bring-Back-Powell 13,148]

No crowds from round 3 is my tip.

Mass gathering bans in 4 weeks is the latest word.

[Demonland 64,798]

I knew this Coronavirus would screw us. Spectator-less stadium potentially from Round 2 for our first two home games At least give us no-feral Eagle fans in Round 1 as compensation.

[Demonland 64,798]

A sad day for the Trackwatchers.

No sense jumping to conclusions.?

Didn’t jump to anything, Martian, just passing on what I heard

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

Might finally have a use for the Herald Sun

[Wadda We Sing 10,685]

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.

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.

[Demonland 64,798]

 

[Demonland 64,798]

Bulldog players won't be mingling with fans at season launch. 

 

[Demonland 64,798]

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

[Jaded No More 57,800]

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!

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.

[bing181 8,165]

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.
