wizardman calm down

 

[Cactus]

Dear NRL/ARLC/PVL:

Please listen to the Gov and to the Chief Medical Officer and act upon their advice and instruction.

Please do not listen to the alarmists, the misinformed and the idiots.

Please keep Rugby League going and televised up until such time as the Aust Gov says we should not.

 

[TheFrog]

Do you honestly believe that is going to last long? You think every player will 100% follow the rules?

I don't know how long it can last.

There is more chance they will if being paid then if they have 10 weeks no money and nothing open

Thankfully they are already doing this cactus. Doing whatever they can, in the right way, to keep the sport from disappearing into oblivion.

I hope for all people who earn their living through rugby league, and the true fans of the game, they are able to succeed. Because if they don’t the likely consequences are dire for the sport and all involved in it.

 

[Cactus]

Thankfully they are already doing this cactus.

Yep, I know.

But I did want to make sure its documented here and bang on and on about it, because while some people post here and advocate to shut the NRL down, its worth reinforcing my plea to the ARLC to stay the course.

We knock them sometimes but even the ARLC need support from us fans as they make these momentous decisions.

I think if there's an understanding that if they don't follow the rules they'll lose not only their own income but be responsible for everyone else losing theirs as well, they will. But it will require some real leadership from key people at all clubs.

Agree, play on!

 

[bileduct]

Pretty much. Of course supermarkets, pharmacies and other essential services need to remain open. Rugbeh League is not essential. I love it and I will miss it but there is something far more significant going on.

Right now the supermarket is probably the place I'm most worried about getting infected. There's a lot more people than usual at my local supermarket, and last time I was there there were plenty of merkins walking around sneezing and coughing into their hands and then putting their diseased fingers all over stuff.

[Mr Angry]

Time for smaller places to adopt an NRL, for a month or two.

Got a square field with lights?
Got an airport?
Empty hotels?

Penrith --> Bathurst
Cronulla --> Darwin

etc etc

Any one says poor darlings have be away from family, please spare me.

lol.. do you realise the Northern Territory has closed its border?

 

[some11]

So I assume that's the NRL done then for a few months?

I was fine with it being called off if the Warriors said no - the burden is a heavy one for them.

But if you're going to keep playing might as well go all the way - base all the clubs in QLD to circumvent the restrictions.

The NRL at least has some kind of experience with it given Magic Round last year.

 

[Spot On]

The kids will cause far more damage roaming the streets than they will at a contained school. Wake up to yourself. Keeping the NRL running involves far more than "34 blokes".
Maybe you should loosen your grip and take advice off those who know infinitely more than you do.

So parents are the real problem as they can't control their kids 'roaming the streets'?

If school is open then so is the NRL.

 

[Wily Ole Dog]

Its reactions like this that are a very real problem. Not only did you not answer the question but you resort to emotion filled justifications and a lame insult.

Do you not understand that whilst ever those NRL players are isolated and contained due to playing the game that they will be protected and that they will be LESS exposed to the general public and the general public LESS exposed to them ?

Yes, even to numbnuts like you and Wibble and all those others trying to cause alarm

Spot on cactus. They are the same people storming supermarkets to hoard pasta and dunny paper.
Alarmist & over the top

Great post mate.

Schools will be closed by Wednesday.

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

All I can say is I'm not looking forward to getting the Coronavirus because the poo you must do when you have it has to be enormous....and I'm tighter than the Storm's defence.

 

[Twizzle]

Jeez, all this started cos one bloke ate a bat. Mind boggling.

one bloke ate a snake, who ate a bat
