I listen to the Premier of Queensland banging on about social distancing, good hand hygiene, perhaps wearing a mask every day. Don't they? 

Can't see any of these things happening in a strip club for goodness sake. I hope they washed their hands before they ate the kebabs.?

Must be an essential service

My 70 year old mother had to get a special letter of exemption from the Queensland department of Health (which took her months) just to be able to visit my brother, who is dying of liver and bowel cancer in Brisbane. Then she had to do 2 weeks of quarantine by herself, where she got fresh air exactly twice in those 2 weeks (including doing a 9 day streak with no outside air at all).

I’m not allowed to travel to Queensland and may never see my brother again.

The Queensland government and the AFL needs to explain to me, my family, and the literally thousands of other people with heart breaking stories like mine why they are getting such a sweet deal - when they continue to prove they can’t even live by the most basic, community minded rules.

It makes me sick.

With all this talk of swimming pools and [censored]-bars, Jack Watts must be kicking himself right now for missing out on hub-life on the Gold Coast.

Christ, imagine if it was Nibbler and Spargo or similar. They'd be burned in a Wicker Man as half time entertainment at the GF.

Being Richmond players we can see the media/spin brooms out in full force, with Gil gleefully holding the rug up.

Nibbler basically copped the same ban (4 weeks) for a bit of bad luck in a tackle.

Can't wait for Caro (acronym for Caroline Wilson) comments vigorously defending her Tiger boys.

Oh I don't know what fuss is. They weren't playing the next day, and they're just boys releasing some built-up seed

Wow, built up seed, WTF, that's a new one?

And this lady is running their State........?

Not strictly correct!  She's only the Premier.  This State is run by a far more high-powered individual who bears the auspicious title (and the FAT pay packet to go with it) of "Chief Health Officer"

Am I the only one low key hoping this goes much deeper then just the 2 of them on this one occasion to the point that the club gets kicked out of season 2020?

Thanks for the kind words all ?

 I don’t take the jokes as anything but making fun of the ridiculous world we’re currently living in (some of them were hilarious).

Im just super annoyed that both the Queensland government and the AFL will excuse this all away - while paying lip service to the community. They should both fine Richmond $500k and donate the money to pay nursing staff in Victoria for the hell they’ve had to endure these last few months. 

As for my brother, he’s a Melbourne supporter, so he’s always joking that he already knows about pain and suffering ??‍♂️?

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
