None of those are community transmissions either
All interstate or overseas acquired, straight into quarantine

It was, then things changed, every day things changed.
Nobody answered me the other day, other than some freight issues, sitting to have a beer, some paper work for local footy and the casino being shut for poker, what else needs to be reopened?

I have no issues with anything being re-opened.. I don't even mind some of the "safety measures".
My biggest gripe at the moment is there seems to be endless recommendation, requirements and safety measures constantly coming out.. without any genuine justification as to why. What is wrong with what has already been occurring?
Take SACA for instance.. this year each captain needed to be 'covid captain' and complete infection control training and carry sanitiser.. no problems, that's easy. Now we need a covid captain and a covid marshall.. we can only have one scorer and the preference is e-scoring instead of the book... ok I can live with that.. restrictions around no high 5s or contact, umpires must bring a coin and captains remain 1.5m away for the toss.
Players cant give hats/jumpers etc to umpire - must be put behind the keeper like you would a helmet.
Penalties for using sweat/saliva etc on the ball.
Regulations around how the ball must be treated and maintained.
Rules for the sake of rules.
Do the AFL still scrub each ball when they go out of bounds?

Changed when and to what? Was this communicated somewhere I missed? What's the "aim" now?

SAPOL complaining their force is under great pressure and need more resources.. maybe they should stop spending all day trying to fine people and businesses for covid crap.

We didn’t have Marshals in March or April but let’s have them in September when there has been zero community transmission for 6 months.

Most of the stuff is trivial and really doesn't make a huge difference.. but you just know there are some wanker umpires who will take it to the next level.

In fairness places where Marshals are most prevelent are places that weren't open in March and April such as pubs, the footy, etc.

Herein lies half the problem - majority of people have been very good and compliant the whole way.. and the reward for it? Add more restrictions, see how far they can push it.Wedgie wrote:Most people are quite good after being told.
