News Conor McKenna tests positive for COVID-19 - Wait, what?

[projectv]

Sucks for him. Was in quarantine for a month when he got back.

But in Essendons squad to play tomorrow.

Incredibly irresponsible from Essendon.

 

[Lsta062]

The chance of a Sydney or North player having it is extremely low considering Mckenna didn’t even play and presumably didn’t travel to Sydney

Yeah I thought he played but it turns out he didn’t

 

[Plat]

That was a fun 2 weeks.

 

[chiwigi]

All the Victorian clubs had to do was go into a Victorian hub, but they couldn’t help exploiting the advantage.

Well, it was fun while it lasted, goodbye footy

 

[Cyber_punk]

I'm guessing the comp suspends for two weeks at the end of tomorrow. Was bound to happen.

2 weeks? The numbers are going up again as the restricitons are being eased.

Season will likely be cancelled surely

LOL how? He did his 14-day quarantine weeks ago and has been tested throughout.

 

[Coaster2012]

And this is why we didnt want to go in a Vic hub.

AFL to investigate whether McKenna breached COVID-19 protocols

The AFL is set to probe whether Essendon's Conor McKenna has breached the league's strict protocols for COVID-19 following his positive test to the virus.

www.theage.com.au

Why did they not think to test him after he came back from a country which has had 25,368 confirmed cases?

I’m sure he was. He quarantined for two weeks on arrival.

The real question is whether or not Mckenna has been following the AFL restrictions.

 

[tommyk72]

Well that's shit.

almost like when they tested him last he tested negative.

 

[nylexbandit]

Just postpone the season. Teams in top 8 now playoff for the premiership in a months time. It’s the only fair plan

Apparently it’s a local transmission as he went through quarantine and was cleared.

How is it irresponsible?

 

[Magma]

[Coaster2012]

Vic had a big spike over night. Looks like its spreading there. And the Vic media had fun ripping into McGowan. Lol. The only sane headed leader in this mess.

 

[bigboysdontcry]

I’m he hearing the press conference will Be in regards to the melees last night. Toby Green to be fined for instigating it.

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Nothing like a positive test and an Essendon player.

They also got stuck into Andrew about being slow too.

He's back in the country for over a month, he was tested then and has been tested since then just as ever other player in the league has. The virus doesn't sit dormant, it's a case of local transmission.

 

[philthy05]

This is on the Victorian campaigners who knew the ****ing obvious and right thing to do was play outside Vic because they still had issues but they kicked up a fuss the ****ing babies and now the season is probably ****ed. Well done assholes.

**** this backwards stupid league and tell the vfl to **** off. Time for a national league that doesn’t have terms dictated by a few blokes in Melbourne.

 

[DEECEE]

I'm shocked to be sitting here.

Umm you clearly don’t understand the situation. He came back a while ago and completed quarantine over two weeks ago.
