News Coronavirus and NRL

[t-ba]

Why can’t the biosecurity person give that advice now. Why is there a wait????

He's currently at the Hillsong Conference.

 

[Chook Norris]

Vlandys pushing hard for Government intervention if further drastic measures end up suspending the season. It looks bad but is absolutely necessary.

Also really interesting seeing Vlandys and Greenberg side by side. Vlandys style is very much more direct and attack dog. Greenberg comes off as more measured. At this point, Vlandys should hand off more of the pressure to Greenberg.... you can see he's feeling it

 

[t-ba]

This, this is a thoroughly unimpressive press conference.

 

[Canard]

So likely that Rd 2 is going to be it for a while, I still think that even it's at risk

 

[The Vaulting Violinist]

V’landys would love a stiff scotch on a cool night

 

[Wily Ole Dog]

If everyone else is going to work/school on filthy public transport. No reason why fit and healthy players can’t play while isolated. Until the government locks down the country or a player gets it. No reason to not play

spot on

 

[roofromoz]

Lower grades have been suspended by the looks of it.

 

[The Marshall]

How come they don’t have insurance against a shut down? Is it just something a insurance company won’t cover or the NRL not covering their ass?

‘Rug-ba League’

insurance companies don’t cover pandemics. Largely an excluded item in policies

V’landys did say no insurance company would cover it.

 

[t-ba]

Why does he pronounce Rugby League so weirdly?

 

[t-ba]

Todd...has done much beter than V'Landys here...

Now excuse me while I find the Soap I use to scrub myself clean after every time I see Trent Barrett.

 

[Perth Red]

wtf? take your silly straw man somewhere else

why is it strawman? The inference seems to be stop the Comp now in case a player gets it and passes it to another player. How is that any different to my office? when I go in on Monday morning one of my colleagues may have it and pass it on in our open plan office with 70 staff in it. Reality is businesses can’t just shut up shop in case, we just heard how faked the nrl is if it does this, same as my company would be.

 

[Fangs]

Hmm. Not too convincing. Round 2 aint a certainty that's for sure.

Vlandys looked ready to shit himself. I think we are in big trouble.

 

[Life's Good]

Reading between the lines(ie. my couch conspiracy)I reckon the ARLC will suspend the season irrespective of what they said today. To me, it’s about the Govt telling them to shut down so they have a better argument for compensation.

 

[Last Week]

Todd Greenberg seems to be twice the executive compared to V'landys.

 

[t-ba]

Reality is that business probably does have to shut up shop eventually.

If a place that has drunk the capitalist Kool Aid to the extent that China has is aware of this we should be too.

Force Majeure.

Frankly even if it was miraculously covered, it would send every insurance business in the world broke, so it's worthless anyway.

agree, it’s something when you can make Todd look good lol. Vlandys comes across as a real lose cannon who will possibly say anything. I mean did the chairman of the sport really just say it could be the end of the game? Lol
