Saints Heading for Noosa

[saynta]

Thanks, But aren't Cairns and Townsville also both nth east of Brissie. So I am none the
wiser.

On the flip side they will be staying and training in elite facilities that are often used for pre season and mid season training camps.

If the ALF is generous enough to fly them, in and out of GC & Brisbane airports for matches they are on a massive winner.

Its a s*** drive though if they have to make it.

Why don’t you google it and then enlighten us all?

Went to Noosa just over 50 years ago.
Did not like the sand flies.
Never been back since.

i went to Noosa in the early 80s, more than once.
Having grown up in Melbourne, where summers are horribly uncomfortable, Noosa and the rest of SE Qld made me feel very very
comfortable and refreshed, even though it was hot, but it was a different type of heat.

Probably only slightly worse than Frankston to Etihad!

The Magpies and Hawks left for NSW on Sunday morning. Carlton, St Kilda and Melbourne flew out of Melbourne on Sunday afternoon, with Geelong leaving for NSW at 8.30pm on Sunday. The Western Bulldogs will leave for the Gold Coast at 1pm on Monday.
St Kilda, North Melbourne, Essendon, the Bulldogs, Richmond and Carlton will remain in Queensland for the next block of fixtures. Hawthorn and Melbourne will be based in NSW, while Collingwood and Geelong will play one match each in Sydney before heading to Perth to play one another while in quarantine.
The Cats and Magpies will remain in Perth for three weeks, both playing the two Perth teams in rounds eight and nine.

No, the AFL already has a team playing out of the Gold Coast.
They need to see if a team playing out of the Sunshine Coast will work.

I might drive down to the servo and grab a large fold out map of the area

Still can't believe most of the teams in the AFL and the NRL are moving into an ongoing quarantine situation, yet in a couple of weeks we will be playing Adelaide in front of 25,000 spectators in a stadium which holds 50,000 maximum.
No chance of social distancing - imagine the lines at the pie stands and food stalls, and in the bars, etc! This seems incredibly risky to me.
Really think SA government might want to rethink that one.
Some crowd, 6 - 10,000 people maybe, but half the stadium full, plus staffing...mmm. Dunno, they might be getting ahead of themselves there.
I saw a health expert on a news report warning that some states seem to be rushing through abandoning restrictions way too soon in a p1ss!ng contest (my words, not his) and that they should heed the lessons we are learning from Melbourne's current crisis.

As long as the spectators. aLL crows supporters by the way, don't come into contact with the players, who really cares?

If WA follows NSW's lead, Jordan De Goey won't be going anywhere.

All 45 players are in Noosa.
No conscientious objectors.
Everyone committed.

I can't believe they haven't already. WA has (unsurprisingly) been the most militant of all states.

Be a nice bit of Eddie karma if it does happen.

RACV Noosa Resort
It has a tennis court.

But not to worry there are a few footy/cricket grounds in the vicinity and few rectangular obscenities.
A warm up jog away.
Arcuri restaurant for energy
And then there's the surf.
Lots of surf and more surf.

There's even a golf course nearby.
But beware playing golf is more dangerous at spreading Covid-19 than a city protest.
Dan taught us that.
Golf is why our footy teams had to leave Victoria.
