Congratulations leftists, hope the virtue signalling was worth it

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Thanks to all the brave protestors. Dumb campaigners.

 

[BACCS]

Season done if so.

Haha you sure do love an alarmist post when it comes to this! The whole reason for the protocols in place by the AFL are to minimize who they come into contact with. Essendon have only played one team as well and unless any of those players have tested positive too it will be fine. Season will either be suspended for 2 weeks or it will continue as normal.

 

[Flash of power]

The spike in cases has been due to people travelling into Victoria spreading it to their families, not the protests.

rubbish it is from people with the virus going to work and socialising with extended family - very inconsiderate

 

[SA HAWK]

Connor McKenna according to Sam Mclure.

Didn’t he go back to ireland during the break?

 

[Sir_Loin]

Congratulations leftists, hope the virtue signalling was worth it

Wut

 

[HirdyLannister]

Didn’t he go back to ireland during the break?

Also spent 2 weeks in quarantine upon returning

 

[BACCS]

Didn’t he go back to ireland during the break?

Yes and didn’t even play last week, this sounds like a non issue if that’s the player.

 

[Borough Blood]

Congratulations leftists, hope the virtue signalling was worth it

Spouting buzzwords doesn’t necessarily constitute a complete sentence.

 

[banzai]

Didn’t he go back to ireland during the break?

Hes been back for ages though

 

[Woody15]

Thanks to all the brave protestors. Dumb campaigners.

How many new cases have been linked to the protests?

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Didn’t he go back to ireland during the break?

He's been back since early May and spent 2 weeks in quarantine.

 

[JT_the_Man]

Yes and didn’t even play last week, this sounds like a non issue if that’s the player.

Probably means tomorrow’s game doesn’t go ahead, but yeah season might be saved.

 

[CoZi36]

AFL press conference at 4pm.

Essendon have only played one team as well and unless any of those players have tested positive too it will be fine. Season will either be suspended for 2 weeks or it will continue as normal.

The AFL itself doesn't have much of a window to delay things much more and Conor McKenna (if it was him) would have been doing contact training with the rest of his squad.

I hope the AFL continues but a positive test in a player is a bitter setback.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

How on earth are people linking this to bloody protests? Nutters

 

[BACCS]

They may just temporarily delay Essendon’s game tomorrow while they clean the club and test all the players. They’re getting twice a week too anyway.

 

[Teagueeee15]

Yes and didn’t even play last week, this sounds like a non issue if that’s the player.

He trained at the club this morning according to Tom Browne, tomorrow’s game going to be called off.

It will either mean Essendon’s games are temporarily suspended or the whole comp goes on a 2 week break, the season is going nowhere.

 

[Virgin Dog]

So what do people think of McGowan now? Strong border control in WA and, funnily enough, no community transmission. Only cases in WA are return travellers in quarantine.

Hubs need to be set up in SA and WA

 

[Thetrader15]

We have to have the hub in Melbourne...can I say I told you so yet

 

[BigVic]

He was in quarantine at Crown Metropol in Melbourne

 

[The_Todd07]

Yes and didn’t even play last week, this sounds like a non issue if that’s the player.

He would have been training though

 

[Badesumofu]

Assuming it is Connor McKenna then you'd figure Essendon can't play tomorrow. Since he didn't play last week though, you'd think other matches can continue.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Season done if so.

McKenna didn't play against the Swans so I doubt it. It means that tomorrow's game against Melbourne and next week's game against Carlton won't go ahead.
