Shouldn’t they Still have to isolate for 14 days. Haven’t returned travelers tested negative on day 1 or 2 then positive later on. Some even on day 11. Protocols seem different for every situation. 

Might be considered a low risk site. Who knows. ?‍♀️

Given the Roosters (NRL) were also in the same cafe, I'm sure our game will still go ahead fine. The NSW gov't and the NRL will do whatever they can to continue on as normal, so it'll look weak on the AFLs part if they don't go ahead as normal. Not saying I agree with any of that, but it's how it will play out.

The problem would be if Victoria declares Sydney a 'red zone' and anyone who has been there since  (insert a date) goes into quarantine if they come to Victoria. 

The AFL has been pretty good at negotiating exceptions with the Vic government eg allowing North back from WA.  So I don't think it is up to them.  The Vic government is the key.

This is only the case for close contacts.

Which longmire and his merry band of assistants are not

 

Can this thread kindly [censored] off.

Tom Browne reporting Sydney tested & negative. Expected to fly to Melbourne this Arvo.

So the Sydney supporters coming down surely they are made to have a test

Maybe Sydney supporters not allowed into the ground same as WC supporters were not allowed to attend Geelong game?

Sydney Swans coach John Longmire and his assistants are awaiting the result of COVID-19 tests after visiting a Moore Park cafe on Monday in the same timeframe as a man who was infectious with the virus.

It comes as players and staff from the Sydney Roosters were also sent for testing, putting this weekend’s AFL and NRL fixtures on a knife’s edge.

God...what are the chances of that...?!!

Media reporting that Swans might have to stay in Vic longer then planned..  Seems, the game on Sat proceeds as normal but Swans might be stuck in Vic after depending on what happens with the outbreak in NSW.

jesus, what are the odds of the swans coaches being at that exact same cafe on the same day?

Covid can go [censored] itself. Actually it does self-replicate so it even has that covered! 

Moore Park is where the SCG is located.

Hope he managed to get his BBQ at least. He made it to the Mascot BP for a gas bottle and the Bondi meat shop afterwards, so I'm feeling pretty good for him.

I have all those except the last one so I should be ok.

Best get some covid test kits, they come in packs of 24, although packs of 6 are available. They work best at low temperatures so keep refrigerated for best results. Take a couple and let me know if you can taste the contents. Best not to test too many in a single sitting as the tests all seem to come back as false positives.

It’s been reported in Sydney that some of the coaches were at same cafe same day... hold onto your hats

I dare say this might affect the Cats also as the contact was before their game

Supporters won’t be allowed to come I’d say

The Lions Freo game is not the same.

Here we have a person out and about for a few days across Eastern Sydney with what is reported as being a high viral load.

Not everyone uses the Service NSW QR system, so there may be a few not traceable.

None of that is paranoia, it's a statement of fact.

Given the incubation period we don't know what the risk is of Sydney players or support staff potentially being caught out.

This next comment is not directed at you so please don't take it like that: it's probably best we don't shoot from the hip regarding the risk around this in relation to the epidemiology. It's obvious some commenters (and this doesn't just relate to DL) view all of this as paranoia and overkill, but it's worth remembering things can get out of hand very quickly.

And traces were found in the sewage in Sydney’s Inner West (where I live)... I imagine a few Swans players may also live in the area.

MFCSS alert .....

  1. Demons looking really good, possibly even real chance to win the flag.
  2. Covid goes crazy. 
  3. 2021 season abandoned ...

Brora Rangers who play in the Highland League in Scotland have just been awarded the league title on goal difference from my home town team Fraserburgh (grrrr) despite having played just three games of a thirty four game season. 

Should covid derail the AFL season again then we should be afforded the same courtesy. ?

I beat you to it, Rab (11.40am) but you provide the solid precedence!

And we all know how much regard the AFL takes of precedence...

p.s. You're all wearing out my 'Haha' finger - from adversity, great humour?

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
