The danger is, the NRL has trouble getting the players to do the right thing, but wives & children on the Gold Coast? I have a bad feeling about that. But, what could possibly go wrong?

Yes, its not a particularly useful chart. I don't think you can draw any assumptions from charting restrictions vs cases until the restrictions have had some time to work. I'd give it another week before any meaningful insights can be drawn from that chart.
It does imply that the initial restrictions had little effect but if you look at the eastern suburbs cluster in isolation then it would be a different looking chart with the restrictions there coming down. The rapid and ongoing increase in cases in southwest Sydney is probably best considered as a new outbreak due to the different rate of spread.

Yes. The whole ‘war footing’ propaganda approach re the response to Covid is an insult to our collective intelligence.Quote:

We are not at war. The attempted military operation optics aimed at counteracting the disastrous diplomatic and logistical failures they’re designed to obscure, are pathetic.
The whole ‘arm yourself’ with a vaccine campaign is also a disaster waiting to happen off the back of the ridiculous ‘hunger games’ rhetoric and a clear lack of supply of vaccines.
What happened to the health advice? Numerous senior staff in the health department are entirely capable of managing the logistics of the roll out snd much better placed to communicate with the public.

That is so weird bob. Who runs the NRL, the Officials bunch or the players?
Soz I've just answered my own question. [bighmmm] Fine the "Millionaires" heavily if they don't abide by the rules, they can't be allowed on principal, to jeopardise the game or the public or the day will come when they won't have any supporters anyway. They'll all be dead.
We are living in strange times & each of us has to be accountable. Time for team shenanigans when this is all over, when ever that might be.
'Guessing' (?) that there are more lockdowns headed out way... here's some interesting time-filling for then.

The players do not run the NRL, only a handful have done the wrong thing, and they have been punished. A lot less players have done the wrong thing than NSW citizens. The thing is Peter V'landys has worked his arse off keeping the competition running, and and will continue to do so until we are out of this mess. Rugby League has been an escape for many , away from the virus, and a rare slice of normality for many. It's not too big a bow to draw to say it's good for the mental health of a large part of our population. And the NRL teams have been accountable for the most part of the pandemic, much more accountable than a large part of the population.
