    not so....the vfl season doesn't start for 3 more weekends, so he could play inter-club practice matches the next 2 weekends
  2. lot of nice words.......but the damage is in their own details over 3 years average return (fee) to rise from an avg of 4% to 20% i make that a gross 400% increase in fees ( (20-4)/4 * 100 )
  3. so, down at linton st they are all talking about why melbourne didn't take dusty martin in the draft good thread......?
  4. you should send an email to club outlining your situation
  5. It should be pointed out too that they had a very tough draw which impacted % they only played 2 of the bottom 6 sides they played all the finalists and only lost to the filth
  6. won all the stats except tackles (sorry formatting a bit lost in copy/paste) look at the difference in tackles! TEAM STATS Disposals 244 211 Kicks 146 135 Handballs 98 76 Free kicks 23 16 Clearances 26 23 Inside 50 31 30 Marks in 50 7 2 Contested Possessions 133 108 Tackles 54 90 Hitouts 28 22
  7. unbelievable great comeback
  8. game on
  9. too many fumbles.....to many poor handpasses
  10. are you serious?.......we are talking about their back-end financial accounting system you may not like their front-end customer web-facing systems, but once the back-end is locked down it's rock solid
  11. simples....they contact you....you supply name of old man the important thing is establishing a chain that can be followed.....that's why it's called contact tracing
  12. huh? the ticketing company bar code locates you to a specific reserved seat.....sounds pretty targeted to me a qr code could be captured anywhere....before entry, post turnstyle area, refreshment area etc
  13. anybody know what is happening with the free 3 game memberships? i signed up the youngest grand kid before the offer was stopped/filled-up have heard nothing since
  14. so far, i've been surprised at the big change it has had on the game. the game looks much better couple of caveats though. 1) let's wait to see how coaches react to it over time and. whether they find ways to bring back more defence congestion. 2) still a few changes needed in how umpires are adjudicating it (more on that later) fortunately we haven't seen too many technical 50m penalties
  15. in general i don't disagree i think though the afl match attendance with mandatory pre-ticketing is a special case. ticketek/ticketmaster data should be at least 95-98% accurate.....that's a high bar. that's what piqued my curiosity would be interesting to compare last nights data from ticketmaster with dhss's qr data to see which is more comprehensive. maybe not just last nights data but say after about 5 rounds when people get better/worse at the routine
  16. i haven't seen any indication ticketek/ticketmaster wouldn't cooperate for privacy reasons.......and we are still operating under state-of-emergency laws. it's because of covid that all tickets must be pre-sold through the ticketing coys with reserved seats so i would presume the ticketing companies are all on-board unless i hear something to the contrary
  17. i still think ticketek/ticketmaster would have the most accurate statistics of who was at the ground and where. The turnstyles are controlled by them. A simple sql script run against their db, at the end of the game could have a file sent to dhss. I's not rocket science (it101) and dhss are already downloading and processing such files already personally, i'll comply with whatever is mandated, but i just can't see a qr based system at the footy ground would be more accurate than what is already available from ticketek/tickemaster
  18. there is also the issue that some (many?) are using a different qr scanning app than the dhss app. there are quite a few when you go to the app store and have been there longer than the dhss app. just saying
  19. i can't believe the qr scanning will be adequately checked by officials coz it would take too many people and time. there is also a minority of people who will wilfully not do it or say they had. I heard a few on the radio today anyway......it will be interesting to see if the # of qr scans harvested by dhss match the afl attendance figures, but i suspect these qr figures will not be publicised anyway2,,,,,good discussion.....
  20. true, but the turnstyles also log the ticketmaster barcode

    maybe i'm missing something here, but why is a QR code scan required for entry to afl games in victoria? surely, because all entry must be booked beforehand on ticketek/ticketmaster with fixed reserved seats, then all the info required for contract tracing is already recorded sure, some people could scalp their tickets to unknown people, but likewise many people won't scan (or just pretend) a qr code

  23. doubt it was about money. bound to be a disagreement between both parties on player management and development. carlton probably wanted it all there way, whilst nb wanted to pick best side on merit and play players in best position to win games
