    What a way to remember your engagement! What absolute selfish fools. Broken? shattered? You reap what you sow. No one feels sorry for you.

      Was reading that those involved are shattered. What are they shattered over, the possible spreading of the virus and endangerment of the community, or the fact they've been caught? They clearly knew what they were doing was wrong and were smug enough to laugh about it on camera, so I'm going with the latter.
      It's not a good look, now we seem to be heading for a curfew! Thanks party goers. FWIW i dont like that their images are splashed everywhere.
      I reckon whoever leaked it isn't getting a wedding invite. We'd be naive to think these things don't go on more frequently.

        No need to apologise BT, footy is a part of it all.

        I didn't get the vibe the video was leaked - more like it was condoned and posted proudly.

        With you on the public naming and shaming - not a big fan of anything that encourages a pile on/vigilante response.

        I mean, screw those people, but let the authorities deal with them.

          2 more weeks lockdown in Vic (with curfew). Sept 2. Covers finals week one. Assuming it ends then.

            Yes agree.

            I don't think we will see any finals here? Probably be a hub. Can we really have the Power/Lions getting that much of a leg up (home finals with crowds again!)? It's going to be an open finals series. GWS could even do some damage.

              It's pretty draconian curfews; I despair.

              But NSW nearly 500 cases 7 deaths, ACT 19 cases, lockdown in NT I guess we have to try that lever.

                The biggest lurk has been people pretending they are drinking a coffee and have their masks off. All that is now against the rule.

                  Yes that one made me laugh. I guess you have to take it down to drink but people carry empty cups around. Where there's a will there's a way

                    Good luck to the cops trying to enforce these rules. Not blaming Dan here. Just an absolute shitshow.

                      Went on a Sunday walk yesterday (I walk every day, but weekend usually full 2 hours ), headed towards Carlton gardens. Full of people lying on the grass, no masks, drinking, eating having a great time in the sunshine.

                          The more exposure sites, the greater the risk of players being forced into isolation. It is also going to get harder to have interstate sides come in. If the situation gets any worse, we won't see any games in Melbourne. Perhaps one in Geelong if both sides are Victorian. Would not be surprised to see this weekends Vic vs interstate games all moved out of Vic.

                            Agree it's really pushing what they're employed to do. I guess the fear factor is at play at bit, rather than the actual ability to enforce.

                            Probably make a few examples and hope it's enough to control the many.

                              With the 8 pretty much set, they could cancel the last round. Pick the new state and begin quarantine this afternoon for a move late next week.
