Great thread. Thanks for starting it frankie.
Take care of yourselves, your older friends/family and those you know in poor health.
Stay at home, keep posting on Demonland.
Not making excuses, but both teams looked to me to be running at half rat power.
Don't get me wrong, I would've loved a win. However I'm not sure we should lose our collective na-na about the result given the players knew they were effectively playing a dead rubber. Lots of players from both sides were walking around trying little and chatting to their opponent. There are concerns about our i50 entries, but not exactly sure that one game reflects where we are at. Not saying it isn't, just that it was a nothing game.
I can't see the season starting up again at all this year. I suspect neither can the players.
The outraged on here will disagree, of course. Meh.
Dan Andrews just said that he's listened to the advice of SWYL and is closings schools from Monday.
Fyi, Melbourne is also a ghost town. The people are listening to you.
Thank you.

So your answer is yes, they have multiple balls per game.
In NRL (I think) they are dunking the balls in disinfectant, wiping them and putting them back into play.
The AFL will have hundreds, possibly thousands of new balls. If they must reuse balls, under the current situation, my guess is they will. So be it.
If they are to play, it's about harm minimization.
A pessimist sees the glass half empty, and optimist half full. But an engineer asks why the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.
I'll see myself out....
