If this is correct then an AFL announcement won’t be far behind

Is that because the AFL teams will be pulling their own listed players out in case of needed additions though?

 

[arupist]

Look, if you're going to try and be both alarmist and rational in the same post then you're going to struggle. The website repeatedly sited by grumbleguts, the guy you feel you must defend, says itself that you cannot use the simple technique for determining global mortality that you use in the post above to claim 6.4% mortality. You are inflammatory. The fact that you feel the need to defend your inflammatory rhetoric with increasing levels of gratuitous insult does not make it any less inflammatory.

Wash your hands. Maintain a distance. And stop with the doomsday fetishising.

LOL. At the end of the day, when this is all done and dusted, there is only one way to work it out - there were x cases and y deaths. Pretty simple. IN the meantime, you can hide behind any risk mitigating factor you like, which you seem hell bent on doing. It will not change the end result. Whether it ends up being 6% or 2% or 1%, I don't know. And neither do you. Providing simple statistics is not 'doomsday fetishing'. Rambling on about it ad nauseam is.

If it goes ahead. It's an hour by hour proposition at present.
The minute a player tests positive, it will shut down. Has to for fear of law suits.

Considering the other sports leagues around the globe, yeah this is the most likely outcome

I think that plus the fact that the AFL are suggesting ‘top up players’ so VFL, WAFL & SANFL ETC will be significantly weakened

Personally I don’t think Rnd 1 will be played this week

 

[Dewnior]

They'll play round 1, then "agree" that it is unviable to play multiple rounds without a crowd.
They'll then shut down for 4-5 weeks, and follow up with 16 more rounds.

At this stage aren't they saying infections will peak sometime between May - July? How can they fit in 16 rounds before Sept?

 

[phlogiston]

If they’re going to go ahead with shorter quarters or 16 players on the field, then they need to have consistent rules for the whole season.

Why would they change the habits of a lifetime?

 

[Buzz Hawk]

Back it in - The first round will be delayed/postponed and then there will be a “pause” for a number of weeks whilst they work it all out. Gilligan’s stupid idea of cramming 3 rounds into 1, merely to protect the broadcast rights, wont happen.
Be prepared for a lightning season of about 11 rounds.

 

[Yardie]

But if no one is there to see it, did it really happen?

What will the bear use to wipe his arse?

 

[Soft as malaxos]

What will the bear use to wipe his arse?

Kitchen paper towel or flushable wipes like the rest of us. What makes the bear so special?

If it anything like my dog it will sit on its arse on the grass and pull itself forward with its front paws.

I hope your plumber is healthy enough to come out with his sewer snake

That's what all of us will be doing soon.

Watch out for the bindis

Don’t flushable wipes flush?

 

[Hawk Dork]

Don’t flushable wipes flush?

For a while they do,then likely to catch on a bur in the plastic pipes and eventually cause a blockage
Bad for the enviroment too as they dont bio degrade

Monster wet wipes blockage pulled out of sewer pipe

A massive blockage made up of wet wipes and sewage is pulled from an underground pipe near Newcastle.

The “flushable” ones or the normal ones?

I use them, heaps better than a dunny roll

Might have to stop now

the article says
"The whole flushable wet wipe issue is actually a global issue."
"The safest way to think about what you can put down your toilet is the three Ps — pee, paper and poo," he said.

"Everything else should stay out of the sewer. Unfortunately, there are no actual standards for what is flushable.

"So you'll flush the toilet and the wet wipe will disappear, but it just doesn't break down."

AFL season will be called off. The commission will announce;

Premiers - Geelong (makes up for 2008)

Brownlow - Chris Judd, Adam Goodes and Gary Ablett Jnr

Suspensions - James Sicily (because he would have done something to warrant it, they are certain)

Coach of the Year - James Hird, marking a stunning comeback to the AFL fold despite the fact he didn’t even coach. Bomber Thompson runner up.

Hall of Fame Inductees - Gavin Exell, Tony Antrobus and Athos Hyrysoulakis. They just shaded Luke Hodge, Jarryd Roughead and Jordan Lewis due to their meaningless contributions to AFL darling teams.

Spiro Malakelis elevated to legend status.

Incredible speed by blue in the straights, showed enormous guts after leading for the first third of the race before getting headed and falling back into 3/4th place to fight back to the front and win.
Will he be available in the Mid Season draft?

Light blue marble definitely on the juice

Yep, I thought it was gone for all money when it slipped back to fourth. Then it pulled off some outstanding passing manoeuvres to retake the lead.
