    Why would you not penalise the players? They aren't schoolkids, they're grown men intentionally flouting the law during a pandemic. Seriously if the pressure from a footy coach about maybe not getting a game in the seniors is enough to make you break the law I'm not sure how you function day in...

    You listed Steve Johnson as an example of a great player with a troubled time. Simpson is arguing that clubs should have the ability to spend the money that allows them to help the young man who stuffs up and speeds 80km/hr over the limit, instead of delisting him because it's too much trouble.

    He's literally arguing that clubs should be allowed to provide the resources that allow them to not let the family situation of the kid dictate their future.

    So what you mean is you're somehow affected by this, and you don't like it so they should change the rules to suit. The same unfairness is in place if you move the games, it's just affects a different group.

    So clubs and players who organised to work or take holidays on the planned byes are punished. There's no perfect solution here, cop the bye's, it's only amateur football at the end of the day.

    No, but in that analogy, the players are the customers not the employees. I see what you're getting at that there's a higher tolerance for risk to sustain an industry that employees a lot of people. But if stagnant case numbers sees a June 22 further relaxation, I don't get the pessimism, WA...

    To points 2/3, whats the difference between that and going to a pub/restaurant/anywhere that details are being taken? If the government gives the go ahead to play, that's no different to the risk you'd take going out for dinner? Sent from my MAR-LX2 using Tapatalk

    Problem is for every player that comes across to a club that already has a full list, you're just pushing another player out the bottom, someone misses out either way. There's no perfect solution, but preference needs to be given to existing players.

    Has Kane Cornes lost his mind?

    Kane Cornes on TV/Radio/Twitter is playing a character designed to make people outraged and write about him. Anyone who doesn't realise this and takes anything he says remotely seriously is a moron.

    Rain forecast has dropped pretty consistently in the last 24hrs. It'll be freezing, but wind/rain won't really be a factor.

    TIME to book GF flights ??

    Is there any info anywhere about the number of Priority 1 holders? In 2015 got 3 pairs of tickets in the ballot out of 3 in our family, seems like people think there'll be lots less available this time for priority 2.
