Don't want to start a new thread, but have just heard from a source that one of our players is in quarantine....

If that were true, he would be currently being tested, and it would be huge news. I know for sure McClure or Morris would be desperate to name names the way they did with the Freo player.

Yes, massive interest indeed! Maybe it'll come out soon.

The person heard from the player's partner, who they work with. I'm just just the messenger!

I think we need to be careful about this sort of information but quarantine implies has the virus (which is unlikely) whilst a lot of people are self isolating if they have any flu or cold like symptoms. No doubt any player with a cough or sniffle will be asked to stay away from the group for now. 

Possibly that, R57 and agree we need to be careful around misinformation. Just passing on literally what I heard.

I won't name the player so as not to scuttlebutt.

Its done...expect AFL to play round 1 behind closed doors as with other major events like conferences etc, Government telling all codes this behind closed doors at the moment so expect announcements closer to the dates as they don't want people to panic!

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

Wait, so the government is telling sporting codes to play behind closed doors, but the announcement won't be until next week? That doesn't add up as they're still selling tickets to those matches. The first indication of possible closures would be the halting of ticket sales. If it came out that the AFL knew they were to have no one in the stands, and continued to sell tickets before they announced it, they could have a big lawsuit on their hands if they didn't reimburse people.

Also, if it is true, the only reason the government is waiting is because of the GP this week. It's the same reason they waited until all GP staff from Italy were here before banning people from Italy.

Don't get me wrong, I think it will happen, but I think it is still a few weeks away.

Hopefully it's Fritsch. He'll kick 15 goals round 1 - no WC defender will go near him.

The don't want panic to happen as they don't want chaos to happen!

You'll get refunded in full so don't stress re tickets but its a done deal but the government are trying to not have society breakdown  at this stage.

The NBA season seems to be doing fine with all games open to fans.  They have a hundred games a week too.

Gil mclachlan needs to ignore the hysteria and get on with things as normal.

"The NBA recently informed all 30 teams it may become necessary to play games in arenas without fans as a means of preventing the virus’ spread, and there’s a growing concern around the league that the plan will actually be enacted."

I reckon the worst part about this virus is being put in lockdown if you have small children. 
 

Forget stocking up on toilet paper, I’m going to go stock up on copious amounts of wine.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
