A serious adverse reaction allows for a legit medical exemption. So if it's true, he shouldn't have an issue.

I’m not talking about an exemption though. I’m just saying I feel for the bloke if he’s had a serious reaction to the first dose as it’s highly unlikely he’s anti vaxx. Plus just because it’s not deemed serious enough for an exemption doesn’t mean it’s not a serious reaction for him.

My sister's friends son ( yes I know, but I have met them a couple times) had a bad reaction and was advised not get the second jab by his doctor.
He doesn't qualify for an exemption somehow. There is no POLITICS involved in this post, I'm triple vaccinated and happy to get a needle yearly if that is what it takes.
Just saying things are not always black and white.

I've tried that theory with Poms and it rings true also. Superiority complex.

I lived and worked on and off in England as an early 20s backpacker in the early 90’s and they certainly have nothing to feel superior about IMHO

I THINK I read somewhere that he was having trouble breathing both before and after the jab, it sounded like he worked himself over it which played a large part in his reaction

Jon Ralph praising the newspaper he works for twice in one tweet is something.

Don't know what that article says but Melbourne seem to go ok with pre-season drama. The previous time they made the finals and got to a prelim was when they had that pre-season camp boot cancelled before the 2018 season.

Uhh or he’s clearly just praising his colleague?

I thought it was mischevious to have the dog training with Dean Capobianco myself.

Hey, remember they can’t do cushy articles on players building schools in Cambodia or doing “study tours” of international sporting organisations.

Don’t worry there will be very soon be an article about the players and their WAG’s, sunning and drinking around Margaret River. The clock is ticking ..

It was either Dean or Matt Barber, who would you choose to have around your dog ?.

Probably Dean, he did have good running form

It’s not a new low. They report on it every year.

You mean like this??

Chris Mainwaring tribute match

I remember them parading the poor kids around and I couldn't really believe it at the time. Now it doesn't surprise me at all.

This was so s**t. Lets glorify our drug culture for our kids.....yay!!

 

[DragoDelph]

And it’s not like there’s inherently anything wrong with the dog race.
But why does it need all the media attention?
Why did that receive more media attention than some of the other things going on at the club.

Oh well. Least it’s not our team ballsing it up for a change

of the Gold Coast suns in training this afternoon.
Jesus if that is true the GC suns really are a cursed club. Arguably the most valuable player in the game right now, all things considered (trade value, future potential etc)

AFL can really be a depressing sport sometimes. Injuries are all part of it & we know more than most, but this is devastating for the kid if the scans come back showing an ACL.

 

[Mesc]

Terrible if true.

I see Stan are releasing a new doco on last year's trade & Draft.

Last year's trade period was the most boring in living memory!! I don't know how they could make a documentary out of that! Colin Young looks like a knob and trying to act all flashy to get attention to build his profile.

Seems like Matt Johnson gets a bit of a focus which will be good. Might also get an idea of what happened with Lobb, although probably not given the narrative will 100% be crafted by Colin Young

Maybe the Lobb thing was encouraged by Colin Young to get some more ME ME ME time in the documentary to spice up a very boring trade period?
