COVID & AFL 2021
https://thenewdaily.com.au/news/coronavirus/2021/07/22/scott-morrison-astrazeneca-atagi/ The Prime Minister has said exactly that. The bolded text below is pretty unambiguous don't you think, he added his rider there though. The families of people who've died as a result of having the vaccine might have a different point of view. Can't argue with the rest of your post. The whole thing has been a public health and communication nightmare. Disc: I work inside health so appreciate risk/benefits, messaging, etc

Cannot find - which section? They have us at 1.17 to make it this AM. They also have Sydney at 3.40 and Bris 2.37. Looking at both their draws, I suspect one of them has more chance of going 4-0 than we do of, what do we need to do - 2-2 with other results our way or 3-1 irrespective of other games?

Great question - I honestly don’t know - which team turns up? The only game I’m sort of comfortable with is Adelaide. I honestly have had little confidence week to week since the North game - yes yes despite going 9-0. Cats Tigers Dogs Port good wins but to me they’ve felt anomalous….hawks x 2, pies, north, Saints, bombers, swans, Adelaide even the blues . That’s just me though. if the earlier season melbourne turns up well we could go 3-1 or 4-0 but I think the cats are going to run amok. I hope that game isn’t to try and save too 4. I afear we’ll fall apart. very happy to be wrong though !!!!

CHANGES: Rd 20 vs Gold Coast
Good precis I don’t follow the VFL - do Declase and Bowey offer run and polish? I mentioned last week Melksham and his targeting inside 50 would help - kicking polish. jones for composure

I’ll take that bet. I think we will go 2-2 but it could easily be 1-3.

POSTGAME: Rd 19 vs Western Bulldogs
We’re very lucky we haven’t wasted the season and set ourselves for a top 2 by not losing to any of the bottom teams and having a draw yet.

COVID & AFL 2021
Are we allowed to discuss this outside the paradigm Of football I’d hate to be political and get a post deleted but this change in advice demands it a sceptical person might infer that someone had called atagi and ask them To get the masses to take AZ this reeks of political inteference of course AZ is “totally safe” (I’ve had AZ to be clear) ooopps! aaaannnnd that will no doubt affect the footy

1 mil a week of Pfizer arriving now. Sydney mass vax just opened for more Pfizer - brother in law confirmed booked for next week after waiting 4 weeks. Linking to footy - this means we should be able to go to the footy now.

COVID & AFL 2021
Your previous post re: restrictions: there are currently LGA and 10km restrictions. I make no comment on the appropriateness of 10k v 5k, merely make the observation. Lost the plot is quite a contentious assertion and implies quite a number of things - perhaps it might be more accurate to say they can't keep up with the volume? Which of course is a function of people moving around, which CT can't control. It's worth remembering these are actual people doing this - I know some of them. I am in regional NSW in the northern border bubble and would prefer a ring of steel approach and more stringent lockdown, 4 weeks ago. So as to avoid any perception this isn't about footy: I now can't get to theGold Coast Dees game (yes I unpacked my miniature Stradivarius). Disclosure: no political commentary. Not picking a fight, just highlighting some operational parameters.

COVID & AFL 2021
Citation required on following: NSW taking bulk of inbound travellers? (If that's what was meant by heavy lifting. Discl: am in NSW outside Sydney, hurry up with the ring of steel already!) What a mess. No more games in NSW this year, probably? Sydney and GWS won't be going home till they're knocked out?

Dees vs Bulldogs This Week
Why is 100 the magic number? Genuine q. 90, 93 and 98 seem handy. 93 and 98 in particular, lots of shots on goal

We wouldn't need to quarantine ex WC back to Vic, which suits the final round v Geelong. I wonder if there are plans to run Dogs, Adelaide and Geelong in Vic, now, then Suns-WCE, pre final bye, finals....

TEAMS: Rd 19 vs Western Bulldogs
Bulldogs != Lions Again - Bevo probably knows what he’s doing bit of hubris about

QLD-NSW border shut from Friday, some exceptions for NNSW border zone. For NNSW residents, this includes attendance at games (ie Gold Coast, Gabba) but peculiarly, doesn't exclude shopping for personal needs (YES officer, new golf clubs from Drummond ARE a personal need related to exercise). Stadia attendance capped at 20k.

COVID & AFL 2021
If people are going to post nonsensical articles from partisan papers - which are seeking to deflect blame from the real source - then that is a political post that merits a for-like response. Otherwise, all that happens is that nonsense is propogated - as have seen in other posts where some posters appear to be parroting said nonsense or taking it as gospel, or else polticising largely apolitical identies (like QLD's CHO). Anyway, it's good to know where the line is. Nonsense from the partisan AFR is ok. The topic either allows non political content or it doesn't. If it doesn't, aforementioned nonsense ought also be removed. Ends.

COVID & AFL 2021
I am well aware of that - it is semi-rhetorical. What I am saying is in Vic there seems to be a cultural/societal trend not to do this, c.f NSW. I don't live in Sydney, but am ex Mel,.

Good news for Viccos! Woot. Here in NSW, we have too many out and about when infectious (presumably some symptomatic). Why is that I wonder.
