News Time for the Vic teams to leave Victoria - EDIT: Hawks to Hub in Barossa, 15 teams in QLD

[kranky al]

Sobering thoughts:





It took more than three months for the world to record one million virus infections, but at this stage of the pandemic, the world has jumped by one million cases in the past six days.


This timeline suggests we could see the global case tally pass 20 million as soon as August or September.

If they are staying back for births/other personal circumstances, that’s fine. If not, wtf Richmond???

Houli and Edwards staying back with pregnant partners.

Dermott suggests he would struggle to go into battle in the future with team mates who chose not to go - providing further evidence that he was brain damaged in the 1989 GF and has never moved into the 1990s.

Richmond has confirmed multiple senior players won’t enter their interstate hub as Victorian clubs flee the state in order to keep the season going.
Tigers footy boss Neil Balme told 3AW they’ll be without “a couple” of older players as well as some younger players who probably wouldn’t be selected if they went anyway.

“There’s a couple senior players that won’t go to the hub and there’s a few young players that will unlikely get a game if they go so we will leave them here with some coaches,” he said on Sunday.

Two star Tigers won’t enter hubs but will still be paid, as Victorian clubs flee the state

Where can I get a job like this

Refuse to go but on full pay

How much longer can Cotchin be captain souring young players minds

Yeah, I'd maybe agree if they were "going into battle" but they are gonna miss 5 weeks of the first half of a footy season. Very bad take by Brereton.

Be a corrupt cop seems to go OK at getting this perk. Suspended on full pay.

If they are a long term injury or have kids they need to look after then that's fair enough, but let us never hear criticism again of Simmo complaining about the uncertainty of the hub when every West Coast listed player (except two with LTIs) went to the Gold Coast. I think this was similar for all WA and SA clubs.

Who are on the LTI list at Richmond?

The Tigers are really laying bare how pampered Vic players are and how much they're used to having the deck stacked in their favour.

 

[estibador]

No surprise with a leader like Cotchin who's always attacked the contest like a pitbull when the opposition player is vulnerable yet approached like a poodle when he's the one who might get hurt.

Why are you assuming Cotchin isnt going?
He's the captain
I'm sure he will go

Because he's mummies boy

I'm sure he will... reluctantly. He'll have no choice for appearances sake.

I'm saying his playing style is a microcosm of the attitude the Tiges have displayed this season. Ferocious when the contest is in his favour, meek when not. His hypocrisy towards voting for hubs is exhibit #1.

Yes I am sure Marlion Pickett has been feeling very pampered throughout this whole thing.

 

[Numero Uno]

To be fair to Richmond, they are not use to having absolutely everything in their favour

What a load of dribble.

I've seen some s**t posts on big footy and this is right up there.

Y'all care about what Richmond do a bit too much who gives a * who goes and who doesn't go

What's in the water in WA? talk about angst.
