If the AFL allowed fans to go to the footy, would you go?

[Markfs]

The AFL site is talking about the possibility of allowing people into games. Would you go to a game if it was "deemed to be safe" by the doctors? I have to admit that I'm staying away from crowds until there's a cure. Of course if the pies make the grand final, i could be persuaded to wear a plastic suit.

 

[adammania9]

Yes, I have an elite immune system. Ain't no virus gonna keep me down.

 

[Anzacday]

 

[Jen2310]

Absolutely.

 

[Baird]

No reason I wouldn't

 

[WalterBlaknWhte]

Of course

Attended the plagues of 77, 79, 80, 81, 02, 03, 11, and 18

What’s one more?

That's a good point... a fate worse than death

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

No.

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

There will have to be substantial social distancing between people. If they allowed, say 10,000 to 15,000 people into the MCG, then that would see decent isolation of people from one another. I would consider going then, if l was fortunate enough to be given a ticket.

 

[barrackers]

Yes. I may drive instead of catching the train though.

 

[magpienato]

Yep, have a greater chance of dying on the way there than I do of dying from covid-19.

 

[Markfs]

Yes. I may drive instead of catching the train though.

yep train more dangerous than the venue..

In latest news on a different matter, two men with machetes have been charged with entering a house. They had been hired by someone but unfortunately they went to the wrong address, well it was the right address but it gets complicated. They were hired to actually go to the address of the guy who hired them, to tie him up and stroke him with a broom. However, the guy didn't tell his machete mates that he had moved house.... A guy who moved into the the original address was woken up by a couple of guys with machetes standing over his bed. The guy in the bed was wearing an apnoea mask. It must have been a sight. The story appeared on the BBC news site.....Evidently it happened in NSW. I expect a series on netflix before the end of the year.

You're soft....I did '60, '64,'66 and '70 before that

 

[SnakePlisskin]

Yes. I may drive instead of catching the train though.

Yeah I’d be more worried about the train too!

I won't need it this year because the grand final isn't in September so we'll win it
but can I borrow you're immune system for next year

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

Yes

 

[jmac70]

Yes, as long as I could go to the pub before the game, and the Legends Bar during.

 

[Markfs]

evidently there's a guy in the US who says that if you drink 70% proof alcohol, you cant get the virus....

It's probably true if you drink enough of it. Enough of it would actually give you double protection - the alcohol would kill the virus, plus your own death would stop it from ever using you as a host.

 

[Help My Club]

Yes, as long as I could go to the pub before the game, and the Legends Bar during.

Mate, so if no open pubs or bars at the ground but you have the opportunity to be one of a select few due to social distancing, do you attend?

 

[sr36]

The question was related to it not being a select few. It was about whether you'd sit in a crowd. It's not a question if social distancing was ensured. We'd all go in that scenario.

 

[sr36]

I'd go in a crowd.

Just don't touch your face and wash your hands... Crowd is safe for anyone who has good hygiene.

I dont think thats the way it spreads in a crowd.... and i've been following donald trump's advisory tweets religiously
