How many cases have we had in Melbourne? 30?

It doesn't appear to be spreading here like in Italy.

They say on media only a Mattet of Time to it does

A person who attended a music festival tested positive. It is said to spread every 2.3 people per infection. The only way to stay under the curve and avoid a surge on our health care system is to stop mass gatherings

21 with 14 active cases remaining. This link was posted the other day and I've found it useful.

They have to call off start of AFL Season

 

[Vicky Park]

Perceived higher injury rate and a lack of atmosphere.

And a general feeling of being in a poorly designed and cheaply built stadium. Secondary to the game of course. And polar opposite of the MCG.

Nah, just ban MCC members, we'll be better for it.

I've never understood the angst about Docklands. I've always felt we're less likely to win there but I'm pretty sure the reality is we have a pretty good W/L% there despite my perceptions. Other than that though I've always found it a good venue to watch footy. Particularly night games where you don't have to worry if the morons will shut the roof or not. Maybe it's because it saves me traversing the city after the drive down from Benders.

Tends to be a tad cold; can be a bit soulless otherwise If we win it’s fine.

Over my cold, dead, coronavirus-ridden body...

I will be shocked if crowds are allows for week 1 now. Games should still go ahead until players/staff start getting infected

Agree.

I'm not going in round 1 regardless if there's a ban or not, and I suspect I'm not alone on this.

 

[wicksy]

Government has already flagged this as a likely outcome. If it’s just one or two weeks that’s fine, shift the season back. Anymore and you just play without crowds.

I personally don’t see any real issue, been travelling the last two weeks back and forth there are fewer and fewer people on planes, it’s just bizarre. Not all that different to the common flu really.

Yeah nah.... Stop talking sh@#.

Even if we use the conservative rate of 1% mortality rate (which we certainly won't be if our healthcare system doesn't hold up... which is likely), it's still 10x the rate of the flu.

Even if you fit the age group where you may not be affected as much, start thinking about others and get your head out of the sand.

I be going RD1 IF allowed

Sadly I don't think anyone will be going for round one or the foreseeable future for that matter.

If we manage to eke a season out of the shit storm that is coming I will be seriously surprised.

So might as well Call the Season Off?

No point in doing anything that drastic until it's required.

The big stakeholders have far too much invested to call it off based on probability, but realistically some players will come down with it.

I can't see how it's viable with teams in quarantine .

 

[Maggie5]

It was strange watching the women's soccer in Vietnam last night - empty stadium. That is after the lights went off after the first minute of play.

First empty stadium then darkness.

It's only football Dave. If it were up to me, i'd be suspending it indefinitely like the NBA have done. The only stopping force to that happening is money and that's bulls@#$.

Not to mention the teams who have to use planes twice a week... Can't imagine the AFLPA looking on that too well.

I think you're mad for attending, but good luck.

I would if I had the choice.

You live with your parents don't you Dave? Wouldn't they be at high risk if you got the virus? Just think about the risks. You may be fine but others around you may be hit harder.

 

[TradeDraft]

Why am I mad?

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Why am I mad?

Look around you. Do you see what is happening across the world?

Football is the last thing on most people's minds.

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

Is anyone thinking of obtaining a refund for their memberships?
I can't see many games where we will be able to attend in the short to medium term, maybe longer.
