Jesus Godson?

Apparently his real name is Andy.  Andy walks with me, Andy talks with me etc.

His dad's name is Harold.  Our Father, who art in Heaven, Harold be thy name etc.

silly me thought this was a footy forum

as if there aren't enough internet sites already for political brawling and virtue signalling one's political ideology

Sorry if directed at me Daisy.

i did get a tad political as the frustration of isolation forced from the B&F attendance got to me.

I am unable to attend a gathering tonight and those there will mock this as another reason not to barrack for Melbourne.

Like me most who attended will be vaned and have no symptoms and will probably be negative.

But we all get inconvenienced because this whole pandemic has been so appallingly handled by the governments, and mostly led by our PM.

I'll leave it there

Can I come to your Christmas party, it sounds like fun?

I haven't had my 4th vaccination shot yet but I can contribute to the conversation.

I might even ask who Leonardo Cohen is😂

Leonardo Da Cohen, famous Canadian Crooner who wrote poems and 'sang' them. He was born like this, he had no choice, he was blessed with the gift of a golden voice...

It's a very real possibility that we'll see these type of tweets relating to the AFL next year. 

With this thing it's hard enough predicting next month let alone four months out.

Sadly though I think 2022 will be a dog's breakfast.

AZ may not be dead after all....just late which is the story of this seemingly cursed vaccine....

AstraZeneca has said that a third dose of its COVID-19 vaccine “significantly” lifted antibody levels against the Omicron coronavirus variant, citing data from a new laboratory study.

Findings from the study, yet to be published in a peer-reviewed medical journal, match those from rivals Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna, which have also found a third dose of their shots works against Omicron.

So are we going to see AFL games compromised due to player withdrawal from infection, in the same fashion that EPL has and other codes in other countries? Apologies if already discussed but i thought it was worth raising.

Merry Xmas to all at Demonland

Back to Back lets go.

Meanwhile ...

Premier League announces record 103 new positive Covid-19 cases
Fifteen top-flight matches postponed after December outbreaks

https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/dec/27/premier-league-announces-record-103-new-positive-covid-19-cases

I don't really get the rationale for players having to sit out unless they are too unwell to play. Theres tens of thousands of cases a day, it's not like having players sit out or games postponed is going to stop the virus spreading. The cat is out of the bag, we have to learn to live with it now. Constant cancelling of sport/school and lockdowns shutting down businesses and putting lives on hold indefinitely is not the answer.

We already are helping the Solomon Islands.

Problem is we can't give them money to help themselves as Solomon Island politicians are world renowned for their epic levels of corruption when handling public funds. Lived there for 4 years and witnessed it first hand.

 

We are doing enough for the Solomons and I suspect PNG also.

yes FD lets not let facts get involved in this discussion 

Spoils the narrative by some

I hear you and agree. However this strain spreads so easily that it gets out of control and hospitals can’t cope. We should be building more hospitals. Ireland tried to live with it but have now restricted all pubs and restaurants to closing at 8pm Just before Christmas

There are some on this site who I suspect would be satisfied with just that approach.

    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
