I’m a bit lost.
And I’ve lost like, a lot of (admittedly electronic) money. And I have a business that is going to be heavily impacted...I don’t know what I was expecting but whatever Scotty just told me wasn’t it.
If you employ staff your business will be getting some cash from the government at least, small comfort but better than nothing.

No need to apologise, this thread, like the whole coronavirus situation, is fast moving.

Gatherings over 500 are banned from Monday
Sharks play Sunday and he’s going ( leadership 101)
Why does it start Monday and not now ?

Presumably to give people time to change plans, make alternatives and have a little bit of notice as a guess. No politician in power or in opposition is going to look great right now. I'm personally happy to wait to the backend of all of this to evaluate the key people and whether their decisions were good, bad or other.

Good question. Seems like strange advice from whomever is providing it. It should be immediate

Well if if COVID-19 teaches us anything it may be that karma is a real and actual thing.

C7 reporting that R1 will go ahead in front of empty stadiums
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Confirmed.
Then it will be on a week by week decision based on government and medical advice. The AFL have pointed out that they have 2 byes and there are 2 weeks before the Grand Final has to be played before cricket starts that they can catch up any postponed rounds.
The players wanted to cancel the first two rounds outright or at least postpone them. The Association are really opposed to playing in empty stadiums
