It's not just Dan, but Victoria that is in the gun, everybody is looking for someone to blame and if Andrew's is guilty of anything it's putting a target on Victoria's back.
You just never hear media reports about the early lock-down stages when Australia was bringing the bulk of International flights into Melbourne or other such uncomfortable facts! But you hear how families coming off those flights have pooped the COVID bed! btw., In these COVID breaches, there are always at least two parties involved, not just the security guards, etc., etc.!
I do not understand all the State and Federal finger-pointing, SARS-CoV-2 won't stop at the Murray River!

Yep. I have to say the idea of driving the numbers down before easing out of stage 4 lockdown doesnt seem all that wrong to me.
Whats two more weeks in the scheme of things anyway. Right now, we are at similar levels that we were at when we entered stage 4 lockdown.
Even the slow easing of lockdown is right. We came out of the last lockdown too quick and look how that turned out.
At the end of the day, people are just frustrated. Fair enough too.

I'm a bit over this finger pointing at Dan BS.
Lets say he did resign over this.....right now. Would people be happy about that? I doubt it. I reckon the majority of the responses would be that he was spineless for walking away in the middle of a crisis......a crisis he created. They would not let up.
Of course, whoever took over could be much worse.....but all the blame would fall back on Dan no doubt.
Nobody is perfect, and if he had his time again, he might do a few things different. Sure.
#1 on the list would be do NOT trust people to do the right thing. As ultimately, thats why we are in this mess.
If he is guilty of anything, its believing Victorians will do what they are told, or what is in their best interests.
But no....we know better....we want to protest the whole thing, and at the same time make everything worse in the process by continuing the spread and ensuring lockdown continues even longer. We want to call for Dans head because we can't go out for a latte or a beer.
Look, i get it, i have never been one to bow down to authority or do as i'm told, but FFS, use your brain...do what you have been asked to do and you will get what you want.....quicker!

I get the feeling that Dan A is paranoid and has little faith in the people and systems involved in managing the pandemic here? Not making excuses for him btw. Like the article MBB posted suggested, pretty rich to expect or put faith in the bloke who farked it to fix it.

Did he personally give corona virus to someone?
Or was it a victorian who did not do what they were told and gave it to someone?

I know what you mean, but do you see what i mean and why dan is blaming victorians?
As i said before. Dans biggest issue was trusting us to do the right thing. We didn't......and now we are calling for his head because we didn't do what we were told.

Trusting us or trusting the Security firms "HE" hired which used Whatsapp to onboard guards with little or no training? I am not necessarily calling for his head, I think he will be judged by the very people he has locked up. I also suggested a number of posts ago that I also think this saga will take its toll on him and he may pull the pin for his own well being.
Also, I apologise for for the DH jibe, that was unnecessary.

Well one thing is for sure, in terms of those "managerial bureaucrats" while ignoring the politicians for now, the whole COVID situation seems to have proven something we all suspected.
Being a moron and a dickhead doesn't stop you from potentially getting a highly paid public service job, I wouldn't trust them to pump gas as they would probably wear synthetic clothing and set the joint of fire!
