You aren't suggesting Game of Mates is at play are you RN! I'm shocked - SHOCKED! Let's not forget Pfizer and Moderna mid last year came knocking and said how much do you need (apparently) and local mRNA mfg capacity was raised early last year....

Probably useful to draw a distinction between AZ and Pfizer. CSL apparently are producing 1M doses/week in AU. I think I read another 500k/month coming in. They are not all being used (apparently). GP clinics (in NSW at least) have ample AZ due to the hesitancy. All of which to say anyone over 50 could go and get AZ right now without issue. The mass vac centre in Mel has ample spare capacity at present, as of 3 days ago. Anyone under 50 could also get it, should they wish to do so. Pfizer is another story - I think I read that another 20M are due by end of year - that doesn't help now obviously. Elderly, disabled, 1A/1B need doing first. Doesn't help those under 50 who wish to get it obviously. I think I read Moderna have 20M coming before EOCY with another 20M Q1CY2022.

The issue is, I think, that Pfizer is not open for all under 50s yet, is it? In NSW, Pfizer is open to 40-49, even if not in 1a/1b and obviously for all 1a/1b. Also to family/close contacts (baby sitters etc I think) of health workers. I think it would be a very poor look if AFL players not in those categories got the vaccine ahead of the general population, especially vulnerable groups who remain unvaccinated.

More likely to Sydney I would have thought or perhaps Gold Coast? Depends how this week’s impending lockdown goes I guess At some stage the AFL is going to have to consider a no jab - no attending policy (once Pfizer is open to all under 50s)

Please do some research

He's not reinventing history - that is all a statement of fact. And here we are, mRNA mfg will now happen onshore.

Could you provide a citation for the above please?

In this day and age with 500 channels per broadcaster there's no reason not to.

In NSW, flights are met and screened by public health. That's the real world.

You obviously aren't really across what is happening in Health at the moment.

Isn't SA currently governed by the Marshall Liberal government? I would say the key issue here is the Federal Government abrogating its Commonwealth quarantine responsibility, along with the continued insistence on high density CBD based quarantine facilities instead of facilities like Howard Springs, or the proposed Toowoomba facility. The mismanagement of vaccine rollout also an issue.

Be a bit silly to allow crowds. It's apparently the Indian strain. The super-max infectious one.

Age Real Footy Podcast interesting on views of flag contenders. Geelong consensus (with Cameron and Smith added) or Bulldogs Dees second clearly

The TGAs decision re Pfizer storage should make a difference apropos GP availability. There is a fair bit of Pfizer in NSW (I work in Health). More on way and quietly coming in

ACIR

No vaccine, no attending footy

Sounds like admin is short staffed - you could email Gary pert with some objective feedback - suggested improvements? Some of us might have his email address and it’s not hard to guess

If not this year, next 3. Tomlo out hasn't helped. Winger yes.

These posts are great - a score would be great too

This x 1000 It was said last week that the lack of a big win could hurt us and the response was basically big wins unimportant ummmm no One could see us losing quite a few from here and missing top 4

I’ll say it again - Mitch brown is crafty and ranges around taking marks and IIRC tacklrs

Agree .

None.

We are going to be chopped up by the dogs.

Sounds like Goodwin and Nicks both know we woz robbed by poor umpiring
