I think he'd have as much idea as the next punter, we're in never before seen territory and our immediate future is in the hands of politicians who work on the recommendations of their health ministers.
As a state, we were at 83% recovery yesterday, we tested nearly 1000 people and had no new cases, we're doing something right and the government would want us to be up and running again as soon as possible for the betterment of everyone's mental health and the economy.
They're just throwing darts at the moment IMO.

Depending how soon restrictions were relaxed, if there was the opportunity to throw in a trial game (even a mid week game as some others suggest), then a directive could come from the league where those sides with one less home game through the 9 rounds get priority for hosting a trial match. Trials don't bring in as much cash a round for premiership points but with so many people hanging for football to come back, it could draw a nice crowd and revenue still.
Also, the September date for pubs and clubs being reopened is an interesting one. if someone told me two weeks ago we would be discussing having a 9 round season I would have laughed at their unrealistic optimism! Things have improved almost as rapidly as they declined but we obviously cant get too complement or rush back into anything.

At some point we will need to bite the bullet and lift some restrictions - if we continue with <10 cases per day, that could continue for god knows how long.. we cant live forever waiting for that number to become zero.
Aren't the temporary/backup hospitals online now? We must surely be almost at a point where we can somewhat cop with a bit more activity?

It would be foolish to not have a base plan, at least you can just tinker with the dates if the restrictions are lifted sooner or later than anticipated.
NSW would be the last to be thinking of getting any sort of ball rolling IMO, the restrictions should be lifted state by state, not on a national scale.

The Premier was quote forthright on talk media this morning that we will not be rushing anything and will be totally guided by the medical experts.
Hopefully there will be some footy however my lads been told not to get his hopes up
