Off course: AFL return plan rocked by Crows' Barossa training session

[Bornadog]

AFL chiefs are furious after the Adelaide Crows admitted a group of their players appeared to have flouted social distancing rules by training as a group on a Barossa Valley golf course, potentially derailing the league's plan to reboot its season.


The apparent breach comes a day after AFL football boss Steve Hocking warned clubs that the season depended on players adhering to the league's strict training protocols and government regulations.

Their punishment should be getting locked down at that camp they all sooked over until the restrictions are done.

We wouldn't know what an educational approach to addressing a breach of quarantine is in Victoria.

I haven't fully read the article but do they now need to start their quarantine period again? I suspect they should because it's hasn't been adhered to

That's not the issue.

The issue is that they've started training aa group when Victorian clubs are prohibited from doing so.

The AFL said that there was to be no group training until it could be done by all clubs.

I think they also need to start another isolation period as they have breached theirs
