Sounds like mandatory in all but name by making it incredibly not worth it to go unvaccinated. Still a bit confused about what situations exist where people would be 'exempt' from vaccination - would have thought any medical risks of the vaccination are only amplified with regards to COVID itself.

Yep. Don't want to vaccinate your kids - fine - your choice. Just don't expect medicare cover and/or childcare benefit / rebates for your children in childcare.

Pretty soon even the most ardent anti-vaxers cave and vaccinate their children. They do have the choice not to though.

I saw a moron on the facebook comments of RTE saying that kids have an immune system therefore don't need a vax. Was wondering what adults have then..

A few VAR changes for this year.

Thicker lines on offside calls, will hopefully eliminate the "offside by a toenail" decisions.

Also a higher threshold for "contact" penalties, contact alone will not equal a penalty.

All sounds good but Mike Riley is still in charge.

Thought VAR worked pretty well in the Euros, and there's no reason it shouldn't work in the Premier league.

Mike Riley: Premier League VAR changes will see end of offsides for toenails and noses this season

After coming under heavy fire over the last two seasons, the Professional Game Match Officials Board (PGMOL) are to introduce subtle changes to an officials use of VAR this campaign; approach is a move away from forensic scrutiny in attempt to have more free-flowing games

Fofana stretcheted off against Villarreal with what could be serious leg injury according to the Athletic …they have Evans still out as well and Fb Castagne still recovering from eye socket injury from Euros. Hopefully not too serious with Fofana

Broken leg. Absolutely disgusting challenge from Fer Nino.

It really depends on what heart condition he suffers from that brought on the cardiac arrest.

A common one that doesn't appear until late 20s usually is overgrown valves causing the heart to work harder than normal. A good mate suffered from this, he was seriously out of breath all of a sudden at 29 years old after being otherwise fit & healthy. That can be resolved with an operation so if thats what Eriksen suffered from and he didnt suffer any permanent damage from the cardiac arrest than yes he could return. But it still hasn't been released what actually caused his cardiac arrest although it would surely be known by now.

From the sounds it was a bit of an "evener upper" too. So reckless.

I see no red card was dished out which is farcical.

Losing a child is worst thing that could happen to someone. Would never get over it.

Absolutely. It’d be unbearable. Very sad news, ****.

Unbeleivable the player thought this was okay, the photographer thought was okay, and then the social media admin thought this was okay.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

From some of the stuff that comes from Italian football terraces it’s not too surprising

 

[glenferry23]

That tweet should be added to the “wtf were they thinking” list. Embarrassing stuff.
