World erupts as Novak Djokovic learns his fate over visa cancellation

The Australian government has been slammed for its handling of the Novak Djokovic saga following the news he will be deported and will miss the Australian Open.

Best part of this video was the fall.

Parasites.

The case Djokovic’s lawyers are making?

They are suggesting that if Djokovic is deported his influence on health and good order will be worse than if he’s allowed to stay.

The interesting part about that argument is that you could then ask him "are you threatening to stir up trouble if you are deported".

Catch 22.


Thing is I don't think it is a strong argument. Anyone anywhere in the world can stir up trouble in Australia (via Twitter, etc) by not being here at any time.

Whilst the act of deporting him might ultimately fire up the nuffies, that's not on Australian Immigration, that's on NJ and his behaviour.

The 14 day period certificate refers to cases who have recovered but still test positive due to persistent shedding. If you test negative prior to that you can come.

You still have to have vaccine after that time period though. It isn't meant to exempt in the way TA /AO wrote that it did.
Novax got off not because he was validly exempt but because hw wasn't given the correct amount of time to prwpare an objection
Procedural issue only.

According to his lawyers and the way the law is worded, it's strong enough considering Novax's lawyers have to prove that the Minister's feelings on the matter are wrong. And not only that, but on an administrative/jurisdictional level.

That’s right. But my post was regarding Rafa’s entry.

Yeh, I’m not terribly comfortable with the ministerial powers and the way they work but they are what they are.

If I'm Djoko I'd post a message on insta saying "get vaccinated everyone!" before tomorrow, smash the Australian lawyers in court, s**t out twenty-first grand slam victory right in medevec's face, then go back to Serbia and/or Spain and post another instagram msg saying "sucked in campaigners" with a picture of that nelson guy from Simpsons like "HAHA" or whatever.

* Australia, carn Novax!!

Honestly if Novak does manage to play and goes full heel, flipping off the crowd and storming out of pressers, then if he wins just tossing his racket into the crowd and going the double birds down the race without even accepting the trophy it would be pretty epic.

Pretty bold comment to begin with “I don’t think” . But that’s ok lad. I’ve had a good week conversing with some quality posters that offer a great counter.

Maybe they should move the tournament to China next year.

Why would they? Over one player not wanted. Seems other players are fine with the brat not playing.

This is a really interesting conversation, I hope it lasts forever.

Personally I think cancelling Djoko's visa increases anti-vax sentiment more than letting him stay. It is making a martyr of him. Antivaxxers love that s**t.

You need to act on behalf of the 90% vaxed majority who will welcome the decision even if the anti-vaxers get a martyr.

I don’t recall the 90% pissing on the shrine of remembrance, throwing flares down burke street and causing chaos in the cbd for weeks on end.

 

[Stax on the mill]

Anti vax nutters marching in support of Djokovic in Melbourne today have certainly not done his cause any good. They were treating him as their poster boy in the demonstration. Tends to bear out the rationale of the minister’s decision.

Something is happening in Sydney

No need for Hawke to take this route, he could have just said he's never had a vax in two years.

 

[Thrawn]

Why should he get an injunction, Mr Quill?

This dude is the Dr Larkins of the legal world.

The "90%" aren't inclined to violence if they don't get their way, therefore we should er... 'succumb to blackmail' or something similar.
