News Jack Darling resumes with WCE

[Shifty1]

This could be a good thing as we can finally play Brander in his normal pos.......................

 

[Yippy Yi Yeo]

He should just retired like Liam Jones. Why hold a spot of another player if you don’t want to be vaxed.

Probably holding out in hope that these ridiculous mandates will eventually be tossed in the trash because they do nothing to stop the spread of covid, that'd be my guess.

[Ochre]

Surely he doesn’t get full pay to sit on the sidelines making his stance, this is where it is all wrong. Take his pay off him and watch how quick he gets vaccinated.

I think it's at 25% while he's stood down, although I'd expect us to negotiate a pay out to have him retire now like Liam Jones did.

NO JAB, NO PLAY: AFL releases vaccination policy

All players and staff will need to be vaccinated to play under the AFL's new COVID-19 vaccination policy

www.afl.com.au

Individuals who fail to comply with the vaccination protocols will be banned from attending club and AFL facilities to train and play.

The clubs will determine sanctions, if any, for players and staff who do not reach the vaccination policy requirements. There will be wide scope for the clubs – from no action at all through to termination of contracts, as well as reductions in wages.

At the clubs discretion

I read the post before the poster name and just knew who the poster was from the tripe contained in the post.

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

I think this pretty much sums it up. Eyewateringly stupid.

Just fyi a fully vaccinated positive case of covid sheds up to 6x less than an unvaxxed case.

Revealed: Every AFL club’s Covid vax status as deadlines loom

Revealed: Every AFL club’s Covid vaccine status as crunch deadline approaches

THE CONSEQUENCES

Players who have not been vaccinated in accordance with the above timelines and do not have a medical exemption can be:

- Transferred to the inactive player list and paid 25% (for AFLW) of their contracted salary or (for AFL) 25% of the CBA minimum base salary

- Kept on the playing list and paid not less than 25% (for AFLW) of their contracted salary or (for AFL) 25% of the CBA minimum base salary

- Terminated contract (with agreement of the player)

- Terminated contract via legal proceedings by the club (but not before May 18)

25% of base salary, which would be **** all

Typical AFL, imposing a rule, then letting clubs deal with the punishment instead of manning up and making a uniformed, league wide approach.

Way to tarnish your career dumbarse

Oops, sorry mate.

they don`t stop the spread , they stop the severity of the virus symptoms ..

 

[Neale4brownlow]

Even if he turned around now and gets the first jab... would we even want him back. He'd need to apologise to the playing group first I would think?

Rocks for brains, or a tosspot. Or both.

Cya later Jack.

 

[kane249]

Maybe he thinks the virus will bounce off him like footballs bounce off his chest?

 

[Neale4brownlow]

hmm


they don`t stop the spread , they stop the severity of the virus symptoms ..

I definetely don't want to start this whole debate again.

But surely the two are linked anyway?

It 100% lowers the severity of the virus symptoms. Some people don't even know they have/had covid. Therefore my logical assumption is they're not sneezing/coughing their way around town... so wouldn't that in turn mean less spread?

I think the correct thing to say is, if someone with covid sneezese or coughes into your mouth, you're going to get covid regardless if you're vaxxed or not. That would be my guess anyway?

We weclomed back Cousins and Murray Newman who did worse, the path for redemption is there if he chooses it

Probably not the finest two examples of redemption stories...

 

[Mr Eagle]

It's his right to choose poorly. Now here are the obvious consequences. The AFL is just a microcosm of what he's going to find in the real world.

 

[Juddy__]

Can't believe fans on the Facebook post drawing comparison between the Covid jab and Essendon's doping scandal. There's a genuine comparison piece about how players should stand up to the doctors at the club to protect their bodies. Some people are too far gone

 

[Jupes]

good on him. footy is just a game and the mandate is insanely ******ed considering half the players over east got covid anyway.

 

[eagles rule]

Probably not the finest two examples of redemption stories...

Willie is back this year .. To fly the redemption flag ..

 

[Boohemian]

I really do wonder how this plays out for him. Covid clearly isn't going anywhere, neither are the mandates.

What will change after standing down?

 

[greatwhiteshark]

Then don’t take your pay . It’s just a game as you say and how he can take his pay without doing what is required by his job.
