CV and mad panic behaviour

[LP]

If Novak was a nobody he would be through but because he is high profile vocal antivaxxer they blocked him.
Exemptions are supposed to be for people who want to be vaccinated but can't. We know the Djoker will never get vaxxed so he should have been told he was not welcome from the moment it was mandated for anyone who wants to work in Victoria.

It was the Feds who blocked his non-quarantine entry into Australia, twice!

All he has to do is complete quarantine, like everybody else in the same situation inducing the "nobodies"!

That would get him in the country but not the tournament. He needed the medical exemption to play tennis in Victoria.

Bit of a worry that a man in his 20s dies in the NSW from Covid, especially as he allegedly had no underlying conditions. I guess he may have had an undiagnosed underlying condition for all we know, but still its a worry.

I've had the booster now, so in 2 weeks time I'll be mosh-pit-ready.

Not flattering ....

This hit the nail on the head:

Whatever the case, it’s hard to escape the feeling all of this government blowback was put into play during Djokovic’s flight as politicians quickly realised the Pandora’s box they’d invited in by not flatly rejecting Djokovic’s application the moment it arrived.

Scotty from Marketing had tried to say it was up to the Victorian Govt to determine whether players could play and he tried to wash his hands of it and deny any responsibility. Then Djokovic put him on the spot and, suddenly, it became a Fed Govt issue. Scotty from Marketing could easily have sent a clear message through the media or even directly to Djokovic. He's hardly a man of mystery as his every move is foreshadowed in his tournament schedule and he has an agent who is happy to field sponsorship and advertising offers at any time of the day or night.

Interesting headline in YahooSport: "Aussie tennis icon takes brutal swipe at 'tone deaf' Djokovic". Tennis fans might be surprised to find out that the icon was Sam Groth. Surely that underestimates his importance to the sport. Maybe Legendary Australian Superstar would be more fitting ...

Heard a great joke today... "Djokervic should play doubles with a CoVid nurse,  that way the crowd get a chance to cheer a real hero"

What about an unvaxxed nurse? Did they lose their hero badge in December?

Giving Novak an inside view of that detention centre might bite Scomo on the ar$e.

Why?  He should have just flown home.
