Rumour Two Collingwood players under investigation for COVID breach.

[OnceWeWereKings]

Went and seen a bloke who would be absolutely gutted. What terrible campaigners.
* the season, stick a fork in it. It’s done.
Just play exhibition matches amongst whoever you can.
Far too compromised to play for a premiership.

The world has gone mad.

 

[Pessimistic]

Before we decide judgement, we need to know what the WA premier thinks

 

[Pessimistic]

Hands up who thought it would be just young guys doing this

 

[Plugger35]

A pity Sidebottom couldn't have done this 2 weeks ago before we played Collingwood.

 

[rumply]

Were you there?

Yes, who do you think was driving...

 

[Pessimistic]

Yes, who do you think was driving...

‘you probably dobbed them in. Which is very UBER driver behaviour

 

[windyhill]

As long as they also got stabbed by a jealous partner they should be fine

Or bitten by their dog.

 

[tandino]

It's a great way to kill a season.

All you need is a few morons getting in Ubers and then testing positive from eating poppy seeds and show's over.

 

[Cotchins Hair Piece]

Drink and drive, no proof unless you get pulled over

Or crash and kill an innocent person.

 

[kaiserchief13]

Or crash and kill an innocent person.

Yeah but that's what the league is encouraging given they aren't allowing uber...

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

How dumb are footballers

You have to wonder how some players can absorb complicated game plans, and yet be unable to understand simple instructions in regard to COVID-19.

 

[Chuckie357]

After this one how about the AFL make all the players sit through some sort of education session (online of course). Any further breaches and it’s an automatic 4 week ban. That’ll sort them out.

I understand this isn’t an easy situation for AFL players but this is the world they live in at the moment If they want to play the game that is their job.

The players whinge and carry on and always want more money, start stripping some of their pay for breaching rules im sure they’ll learn even quicker. So greedy and seems that they have a lot of disregard for anyone but themselves

 

[Arctic fox]

I demand a week’s suspension for Sidebottom. And a week for Pendlebury as well for poor leadership.

I'll see your Pendlebury and raise you Grundy.

 

[Satan]

Collingwood should forfeit

Essendon should have set an example last week

 

[tropicaltiger]

A pity Sidebottom couldn't have done this 2 weeks ago before we played Collingwood.

he probably done something similar just didn't get busted or recognised.

 

[Beerfish]

Connor should still be isolating, what strings did Essendon pull for that? 1 week served whilst self isolating and 2 days after that cleared to play? Highly suspicious.

We pull all the strings. We're Essendon. We do whatever we feel like doing. Hard to believe some people still don't get this.

 

[rumply]

‘you probably dobbed them in. Which is very UBER driver behaviour

Getting Sidebottom out of this week's game was just too good an opportunity to pass on.

 

[Satan]

We pull all the strings. We're Essendon. We do whatever we feel like doing. Hard to believe some people still don't get this.

A few ppl in Switzerland disagree

 

[queensberryrules]

What a wnkr. They breed em' all twisted and malformed down at Vic Park.

Don't do, THINK!

 

[Bunk Moreland]

I'll see your Pendlebury and raise you Grundy.

Yes, him too.

 

[Mister Carlton]

Adorable that an excited Essendon supporter raced to start this thread.

We will still beat you.

Actually a Carlton supporter. Look forward to beating you if the competition is still running.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Not a good look on Wellsy being complicit in allowing them to visit him. He could have prevent it by turning them away, assuming he knew the rules.

 

[Linda Lovelace]

Actually a Carlton supporter. Look forward to beating you if the competition is still running.

Eh, I think it is a merged thread. Pretty sure the thread I posted in initially was made by an Essendon supporter, but to be fair I also could have just smoked too many of Bomber Thompson's special game day pick-me-ups.

But your misplaced confidence is equally adorable.

 

[Ricmel]

Anyone else getting the impression these guys aren’t really across the rules?

I mean if true this would be so dumb that you would literally question whether these guys have some developmental issues. It is not just their health they are risking, the whole pitch from the AFL to be allowed to play is that there are super strict hygiene regimes in place.

 

[HirdsTheWord]

Yea ok so 1. Can't travel in uber. Can you get a taxi? How do you get around when drinking? 2. Can't see someone for longer than 2 hours? Why? Isn't it 15 minutes? How do they come up with 2 hours? 3. Why can't he visit him? How is this different to number 2?

You don’t drink....
