It’s obvious Marlon is better collecting possessions with the lights off. #AFLLionsTigers

@FOXFOOTY @Foxtel @kayosports Patrick Cripps knocked a bloke out and got let off so he could steal the Brownlow

[Russell Messenger @russmess67]

Looks like they've dropped the "fairest" part of the award. Didn't even thank his lawyers! #aflbrownlow

It just feels like Luke Darcy is going for a world record for how many times he can say "feels like" in a game of footy. King of hyperbole! Just call the game mate! #afldemonsblues #7sport #AFL

Why do rugby league people call all finals "semi finals"? Joey Johns, the "immortal", it's a preliminary final. #NRLSouthsManly

@QldPolice Please explain double standards in mask wearing? 2 occasions this week I've observed your counter staff in the Adelaide Street Police Beat not wearing masks. Health directive is that masks should be worn inside at all times. Can provide photo if required.

https://t.co/GzeY9Rj1OC Can hear the @Richmond_FC faithful reviving this one. #9thagain

The jumper clash is now officially out of control for the #AFL who decided the umpires might clash with #hawthornfc so made them wear blue which is apparently no clash with #westcoasteagles.

[Russell Messenger @russmess67]

Haha, #foxfooty crossing back to Eddie Maguire for his comment on @PAFC wearing prison bar jumper to sing song, "I have no comment", followed by yet another bitter and twisted personal attack on Kochie. Does he remember he's not the pres anymore?

@dietmexicola @QLDPremier For a wedding. I have plenty of friends.

[Russell Messenger @russmess67]

Good news on the easing of restrictions @QLDPremier. But you can't surely believe that there is more risk at my private gathering of less than 100 family and friends than there is at a full Suncorp Stadium! It's time to lift the restrictions on private gatherings as well.

[Russell Messenger @russmess67]

@dietmexicola @QLDPremier I'm not taking about a large gathering of randoms meeting in a public venue. Surely a controlled private venue where everyone is known to me can accommodate up to 100 people?

[Russell Messenger @russmess67]

@dietmexicola @QLDPremier Pretty weak argument. I'm all for full stadiums and love attending the footy but can't see my private get together is riskier than walking out of a large stadium shoulder to shoulder with a bunch of randoms who can only be identified whilst seated.

[Russell Messenger @russmess67]

@dietmexicola @QLDPremier Easier to track 60K randoms than 80 family and friends at a private venue. I don't think so!

[Russell Messenger @russmess67]

Off to the #AFLGF thanks to @mattjmess. Just a shame @brisbanelions are not there. Hope the Victorians can handle the heavy dew. #AFLTigersCats

[Russell Messenger @russmess67]

@brisbanelions I believe members ballot has been completed. No tickets for me! How can there be tickets for sale when some pledge members have missed out?

[Russell Messenger @russmess67]

Good news for the @NRL the latest govt ban only applies to gatherings greater than 500 people so the games should be able to go ahead as usual. #coronavirusaus
