Liam Jones was berated on here for saying how awful and dangerous a man he was to be anywhere our team and he may kill players in the team as he is unvaccinated. Time has proven and clearly shown his obviously safe to be beside 40 of his teammates in showers, dressing rooms etc yet 18 months ago he was looked upon like he would be the grim reaper!
He had the balls to hold his ground on something he believed in despite all ridicule he never swayed.
Good on him.
Liam Jones can do what he wants. IDGAF.
However, he put himself above the team, he made himself out to be an individual, and when you play a team sport, thats not great.
There has been talk about our current captain being an individual and its hurting the team....this is on-field...and my thoughts there are the same as they were with Jones. Be part of the team and do team things.
Jones chose otherwise, as is his right, and we effectively showed him the door, as is our right.
None of that has anything to do with any kind of genius intelligence in understanding of how COVID works though.
Its the governments job to govern for the people.
We couldn't be trusted to do the right thing and isolate, so the government had to step in and make us do it.
The government didn't 'misunderstand', the government didn't know....nobody did. Everybody dealt with it differently and did what they thought best with the information they were given.
Next time something like this happens, you and Liam Jones might try and take a similar stance, and it may work again.
.....or it may not. It may be more severe, and more likely to cause death. You think people will be dancing on your grave because they were proven right and you 'chose' wrong? No.
But you seem to be doing that in reverse.
I think its much better to err on the side of caution. You wanna be a risk taker, thats your right, but sooner or later, it may not work out as well.
