NT border opening to Vic tonight. Absolute balls. Hope we don’t end up in NT for this game! -
Nothing nice ever happens to us

Oh ok well I understood they did have a permit. At least that's what Jerone told me, and I do not question the commander! I still maintain they should be punished, but perhaps the police couldn't pin enough on them? Did they get fined in SA?
-
I totally get what both of you are saying, and trust me when I say if it was up to me, they'd be in jail. However, if we start punishing people who break every rule severely, there is the very real risk that people who know they've done the wrong thing won't come forward to get tested and won't be fully honest with contact tracers. Those consequences are far more wide reaching than punishing individuals. So while I get how infuriating it is, and while I think anyone who knowingly and unlawfully puts the lives of others at risk by breaking clear rules should be put in jail for 14 days (and made to work in a Covid ward without PPE if they protest lockdowns and vaccinations), the government is stuck between a rock and a hard place. They don't want to deter people from telling the truth, even if that truth is ugly. Imagine if the family from Hume didn't disclose their movements. That is an entire chain of mystery cases that could turn into 100s of new infections. I rather they sit in the knowledge that their stupidity and selfishness infected their extended family/relatives, than cause a longer lockdown for the rest of us. We are lucky to live in a country where compliance is generally very high. There will always be absolute [censored] heads who ruin it for everyone else. But overall I think most people do their best to do the right thing in very difficult circumstances (lockdowns are exhausting!) and we need to support and encourage that as much as possible.

A big difference people seem to forget about these removalists, who I despise with every inch of my soul, is that they actually had a work permit to come across. They didn't break the rules coming into the state, and they were not aware that they were sick until they returned home and got tested. The only official rule they broke is not wearing a mask. Does that mean they don't deserve Karma to hit them like a bus? No it doesn't. But this guy broke very clear entry guidelines going into another state. He lied. He will cop a far bigger fine, just as the idiots from Melbourne who flew to Darwin for a wedding copped a fine of around $4k each. Or how the idiots who drove from Melbourne to QLD in the last lockdown did. Permitted workers who bend the rules will always cop a far smaller fine than those who come across without any permits whatsoever and break clear border laws.
-
Yep and is apparently not cooperating with contact tracers, and had to have police formally interview him in the presence of his lawyer. What a hero... it only takes one or three idiots to send millions into lockdown. People are so selfish, it really is mind boggling.
-
I dunno, QLD have a mystery case from China who was out in the community for two weeks. They've got another [censored] from NSW who went across illegally. Anything is possible.
-
If we can't have finals in Victoria, next best option would be SA and borders open. An easy trip for us Victorians that can be planned at short notice if needed. [censored] WA!
-
The only thing more predicable than NSW asking people to stay home everyday is Chris Scott having a self indulgent sook about something every week. Mate, just like the anti lockdown protestors, your complaints make no sense. Go home.
-
Surely we can’t be so lucky as to play them at Marvel in dry conditions. My MFCSS says we will play them in Horsham in a lightening storm and BB’s hair will catch on fire.
-
Ugh 3:10 on Saturday is annoying… unless we are still in lockdown in which case what is even time?
-
If West Coast are already coming to Victoria to play Pies this week, could we be so blessed as to have our game against them the following week also in Victoria so neither team has to do the whole isolation thing? Can't remember the last time we even played West Coast at the G. I suggest we fly Gold Coast here, then play West Coast the following week. That means no leaving the state at all for the rest of the H&A season.... and somehow we still manage to lose both those games....

Umpiring was putrid but the Dogs were simply better than us. They used the ball well and we looked like a hot mess trying to move the ball inside 50. When by some fluke we hit a target inside 50 we either couldn’t convert because our forwards are atrocious at goal kicking or because they were taking shots from 87meters out on a 90 degree angle. It’s obvious we have hit a form slump at the worst possible time of the year. We are getting nothing from Gawn or Jackson around the ground. Rivers and JJ well down as well. Langdon hasn’t been the same since his concussion. Harmes is a complete liability with ball in hand. We rely on too few to do too much. Oliver May Lever and Trac immense every week. But four players don’t win you games against a side that is stacked full of stars. We were out coached, out umpired and out kicked. They were a man down in the last quarter and still ran all over us. Bad signs. I hope we can find some form and fast so we can stay in the top 4. But I think tonight showed we are absolutely beatable unless everything goes right.
-
Game on the line and our midfield gets touched up. Nothing more obvious.
-
The Bont ripping top spot from us. Way better than Trac tonight.
-
And that’s the difference. They use it well inside 50. We don’t.
-
As per usual programming.
-
[censored] yes. Let’s go!!!!!
-
Great work Viney
-
Running out of time
-
Yep Free to Libba in front of goal. Like clockwork.

Fumbles fumbles fumbles

You couldn’t script this umpire murder mystery any better if you tried.
