FIXTURE CHAOS: AFL SEASON IN TURMOIL AS SA SHUTS BORDERS

The AFL’s 2020 season has been thrown into further turmoil with the announcement that the South Australian government will keep its borders closed to Victoria.

Suddenly that seems like a good idea.

But AFL wouldn't just leave it there because unlike AFLW it's not us and Freo looming as the obvious grand final participants.

AFL "we've decided on a 4 team finals series. Congratulations to Collingwood, Carlton, Richmond and Essendon".

64 cases

If correct weight - a good result. From memory, we got Kyron for pick 64, I think - auspicious number!

I’m guessing the same people missed out on job-keeper, job-starter and the $750 handouts? Poor buggers. If only the information can be presented in a language they understand.

up the shnoz or the spit test?

Nose/throat test. Uncomfortable but wasn't painful.

Daniel Andrews and his government is a joke

 

[muttley45]

If i heard correctly, the genomic testing has revealed that the virus has been transferred from quarrantine hotels by staff breaking protocols, and even thought i heard mention of an official inquiry headed by a Judge or something, anyone hear the full details ?
