welshbairn Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 An antibody test might go somewhere towards proving he had Covid in December, which seemed a bit too convenient. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamba_trio Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 I'm surprised they haven't cancelled his visa on account of him swanning about whilst infected. I'd have thought that not being willing to self isolate would be a pretty obvious reason, given how strict countries (especially Australia) are being. Given that you need to be vaccinated to go just about anywhere now, is his plan to get covid just before he travels from now on? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Couple of more things have come up. He said he hadn't travelled outside Serbia in the last fortnight in the landing form for Australia, he'd been to Spain. And some people say, Der Spiegel included, if you scan the QR code on his PCR test certificate it gives a negative result. Others disagree on the latter point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The landing form doesn’t ask this question. It requires you advise “In which country did you board this flight or ship”, also your country of residence (if a visitor or temporary entrant) and “Were you in Africa, South/Central America or the Caribbean in the last 6 days” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven’t travelled since 2019 so ATD must be a covid extra. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arabdownunder Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) They should cancel his visa midway through a match. Immigration officials storming onto the court during a third set tie-break. More entertaining than tennis.

I thought his brothers reply was pretty telling. He was asked if Djokovic knew he had covid on 16th December and his reply was "yes, everything was public and all the documents are legal". Firstly, it wasn't public considering this is the first anyone had heard of it, secondly nobody questioned the legality of the documents but he felt the need to stress everything was legal. He never had covid IMO, which tbh I'd rather he was lying about that than going to visit a class full of kids and hug them all in full knowledge he had covid. He's still a horrible c**t, and his god awful Farage wanking family can f**k off too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Brightside Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 According to Ros Atkins testing positive for Covid has never been a valid exemption, but Tennis Australia thought it was. Quite why it matters what Tennis Australia thought is irrelevant. He shouldn't have been allowed in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Meanwhile, one of Djokovic's neighbours in the Melbourne detention centre has been there and others since he was 14. He's now 23. https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/djokovic-plight-serves-up-refugee-reminder/ar-AASE5qA 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Either Djokovic lied to Australia about not travelling in the 2 weeks before arriving, or he lied to Spain about not having tested positive for Covid in the 2 weeks before arriving there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) I've said this elsewhere on social media, while Djokovic (at least for now) has "won" his case, it is a textbook pyrrhic victory. Either he, or the Serbian government, lied about him contracting covid, or he is a complete fucking shit for going maskless and in close proximity to young kids just days after his diagnosis. I've not checked back to see if this has been mentioned but did anyone catch his father's rant? Lordy me, what an absolute moon unit that man is. Part nationalistic rant (always good to hear in the Balkans considering Serbia's history) and part canonising his son, with parallels to Jesus. It's an absolute doozy and shows there is something "not quite right" with his father. I mean, of course, this is all classic anti-vaxx nonsense. Intensely selfish people assuming they are the main character, somehow abused and oppressed, when the simple fact is they are deluded and possibly mentally ill. I would love people to get a load of drones and drop masks over the court he plays on. Edited January 11, 2022 by Ric -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Emma Radacanu was routinely beaten 6-0 6-1 by Rybakina who is in exceptional form so far this year making the final last week and losing only to Ash Barty. Difficult time for Emma recovering from COVID and having to deal with the pressures of being a Slam Champion when she hasn’t been a professional long. I still think Australia will attempt to cancel the permit of Novak Djokovic one more time. I would say the delay is occurring as they want to ensure that it meets the threshold of legality needed to stand up in court, and/or they are waiting just enough time to ensure he can’t play the Australian Open by failing to take court. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdhafc1874 Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Raducanu to get papped out in the 1st round of the AO is an absolute NAPNovak playing, getting booed to f**k & losing in the 1st round would be the best result at this point - or him testing + the day before the tournament starts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love people to get a load of drones and drop masks over the court he plays on. It's really not a pyrrhic victory at all because the Australian government contrived to make a rip-roaring c**t of itself and Djokovic gets to play the tournament. If he wins it to break the GS record, then not one single f**k will be given in either Serbia or indeed the history books for all the current claptrap about being at an event in December while 'positive' and *gasp* not even wearing a mask! With children there too! Personally I'd rather not have Djokovic being the one to demolish all this safety theatre as he's clearly an arsehole on principle. But it is turning into a pretty comprehensive W for him and a thumping L for both the public health psycho brigade and the grubby, incompetent racists running Australia. Which is nice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
