Qld Border Closure - RELAX EVERYONE!!

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

I’m only going by what I saw on the ABC NEWS24 last night.
I am trusting that, even if they can’t spell, they can still report the facts reasonably accurately.
Hmmmmm ? :roll:

News and facts :lol:

Due to the recent budget cuts and the risk of being raided if you do disclose uncomfortable" facts, please fill out the following survey and tell us which you would like, News like you get on the other channels? Or facts like the ones that generate raids?

Please note:
You may have noted, that due to past budget cuts, we have had to reduce the film footage (has that been metricised?) to about 1 min for important subjects and we just replay that till the talking head has finished. Due to even more budget cuts, we no long have footage? of actual news worthy items and use that air time for politician's to tell us just how good they are at doing what ever it is they are attempting to do but stuffing it up in at least someone's eyes ........

Could this issue with the AFL be a "Darwinism" type gene pool cleansing? Getting rid of this inferior code to allow the proper NRL access to all the $$ and fans :lol:
My beloved Roosters went down to the Raiders last night by 4 points, a good game but for that :lol: Between the Eels and the Roosters, the games have been close to State of Origin quality each week, so certainly happy with the quality with or without fans.

Terry ,maybe we should keep the NSW /Vic border closed permanetly during the football season, it would keep the NRL out of Victoria and we could keep our AFL to our selves................just saying

Good to see that ScoMo has his priorities right.
Announcement today that the gummint will spend hundreds of millions of dollars on supporting the local film industry.
Meanwhile, a 94yo friend is unable to get home help after being hospitalised with a broken arm! 😡

I saw a piece on the 'net that suggested they might have to run the Melbourne Cup at Royal Randwick in Sydney. The mind boggles :o
Jon, just in case you didn't notice before, they have been playing Aussie Rules up here for years. Now all the teams want to be here. Must be the weather. :lol:

Just heard on the news that Gary Ablett has made a “mercy dash” back to Victoria from wherever he fled to. (Edit: just learned he was in Perth.)
Anyone willing to lay money on him NOT being allowed to leave the state to resume playing football?
...
...

I thought not.

Of course, as a footballer, he can’t possibly become infected with the Covid virus, can he?
That’s why he’s allowed to come and go as he pleases.
And if his son was so sick before he left, why did he leave in the first place?
It appears football is more important to him than his family.
😡

Now it looks like netballers are also immune from the Covid virus! All the teams are relocating to Queensland.
Must be playing with balls 🏀 that is the secret.
Well, the answer is obvious: never mind chasing a vaccine, all we need is for the gummint to issue everyone with a football or netball!
SIMPLES!!

To avoid racism - get it? - each horse must be allowed to race in the direction of the country or State of origin. That should work!
