2020 Non-Crows AFL Discussion

[Mutineer]

Speed and agility like a small player.......... Yeah nah.

Where can we get some of that primo gear Zorko's been smoking?

 

[hey shorty]

Seems to get the ball, hold onto it and give to advantage. All while being in a contest, looking slow and not getting caught. Looks can be deceiving.

Still wouldn't call him quick by any means.

Quick enough to not need to panic dispose in traffic and not get caught. Quick, slippery, whatever it is, he gets the ball in traffic and uses it well drawing opponents to him to release team mates.

Or maybe a good judge of ability

A lot of the time it's brute strength.

Nah not leg speed wise

 

[Mutineer]

Not if he's even hinting CEY is quick and agile he's not. CEY is a handy inside mid with quite good overhead ability and average footskills no doubt but quick and agile he is not.

Strength in the contest is his No.1 weapon.

The Matildas Olympic qualifier away game against China next week has been moved to Sydney.
A few months to go but what are the odds of Port’s China game not going ahead? There’s unlikely to be a corona virus vaccine before then.

I personally can't see it going ahead... Maybe I'm overreacting but why would they risk it?
Having said that the fans have already booked their accommodation.

And speaking from experience Airlines can't be rather annoying at issuing refunds.

That said, global health outbreak would do it

Gives them a good excuse to exit China.

travel insurance won't pay out on it

 

[hey shorty]

travel insurance won't pay out on it

Didn't think so, but it's not like it's in the travellers control, it's worldwide quarantine.

I wouldn't be buying tickets now though.

I have a similar virus hasn’t stopped my travel “Great Northern”

 

[FR0GGY]

But there were 10 000 in the quarantine tents out the back.

Depends. A lot of them have clauses for government travel advisories. If China goes on the "do not travel" list on smarttraveller there's a chance.

Unlikely they'd do that though.

now it is a known event, it would give the travel insurance providers some leeway, people who bought before last week would be safe IMO

Most insurers won't cover cancellation costs if:

• you're cancelling because of a situation that was known about before you bought your policy
• our advice level was already at 'Reconsider your need to travel' or 'Do not travel'
• you're cancelling due to a mental health issue or episode
• there's a demonstration, war or terrorist incident in your destination unless we raise our advice level to 'Do Not Travel'
• there's a pandemic, epidemic or natural disaster in your destination unless we raise our advice level to 'Do Not Travel'
• your tour company or airline makes a mistake with your booking, or goes out of business

Well they've suggested to not travel to certain cities already

 

[hey shorty]

Coronavirus has been around for 8 months, well this strain has, they did pretty well to contain it as long as they have.

Yeah, as I work in the industry, people cancelling tickets bought before the 19th would have strong grounds for refund or travel costs. It hasn't been called a pandemic yet, or epidemic. If you were buying tickets to China now, it is a lottery to whether your travel insurance would pay, some would, most won't. In saying that, pay enough for your travel insurance ( and some will provide this service Bupa international springs to mind), you will be covered for a premium
