Just a bit confused...
How can players, officials etc  who live in some of the 'hotspots' just  move to alternate accommodation in non-hotspot suburbs and then be free to travel?

Reminds me of Lonergan taking Carazzo out of a game, you can't rely on the AFL. Sometimes you just have to take things in your own hands and make the opposition understand you won't put up with cheap snipes and Merrett needed a lesson during the game so he didn't apply that type of tackle again..

'Sliding doors' moment'
A tackle that changed the course of history.
There's a chance Brett Ratten would still be our coach if not for that tackle. ;)

We'd started the season like a house on fire.
Beaten Richmond and Brisbane and demolished Collingwood.
Carrazzo had been arguably our best player.

Ratten got a 'bee in his bonnet' about the size and strength of the Bombers (little did we know) that led to a falling out with  Justin Cordy.

Carrazzo's injury was one of the first in a string that would seriously weaken the side to the extent they were a shadow of the Round1-3 side by the end of the year and Ratten was history.

Blah-Blah Bar / Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading)
It's kind of ironic that if the Dem's had been successful in having Trump removed in that impeachment process a few months back there's a fair possibility they would have wrecked their chances of winning the presidency.
Pence wouldn't have been the candidate..
Who would have been the Republican candidate and how would they have shaped up differently against Biden?
Would Biden still have been the  Democratic candidate in that scenario?
How would that impeachment vote have gone today?

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Cheats FC Player Allegedly Tests Positve to Covid 19
What that shows is that this thing and the handling of it is full of contradictions.
I don't think anyone has a real handle on it and the various manifestations.

I'm happier now that the game goes ahead without some players missing...but I really don't think we have a clue as to what's going on and that means that it could turn on us pretty quickly.
Nothing would surprise.
