Any player if they can provide medical grounds to not receive the Flu shot..can play..as long as they sign a waiver...personal grounds however will not get an exemption..

A small % of people do have an adverse reaction to the shot...you are warned of this by your doctor before the injection...

Did he contract autism or did he get chills or a red lump at the injection site. Exactly what reactions is he concerned about?

You'd have to ask Bryce....but from experience a teacher I know a few years ago had a flu shot an had an extreme allergic reaction similar to anaphylaxis..throat swelled trouble breathing ambo's were called..safe to say she hasn't had one since..

So if he is allergic to the components of flu shots, it would have been VERY easy to just say that, in public. "I need to decline flu shots because I am at risk of anaphylactic shock". Then nobody gets in his grill and he arguably gets a waiver quite quickly. I therefore assume he's not actually allergic to flu shots.

That may be the case but he has now presented a doctor certificate stating he has a medical reason to not get a shot. That pretty much closes the whole thing.

Yeah it does, but it might be a BS reason. Just you can't really challenge it if assessed by a doctor.

Agree 100%, it could all be crap but once he has that doctors certificate everyone's hands are tied.


Funny how the "medical" reason popped up suddenly days after it all started. If it is a legitimate reason it would have been stated on Day 1 not Day 10 - BS to me

Agreed, but you can't argue a doctors certificate.

Yum, yes you can if it is found to be issued without proper consultation and/or medical condition. In other words if he has just shopped around to find a doctor that will sign a certificate to avoid a law then it is invalid. I think there is more investigation needed.

I have an incredible debt to people who developed Warfarin and Sotalol. Yeah Warfarin is basically rat boot, it’s not perfect and I’d love to have an alternative that acts the same way without all the bleed risks and temperamental INR effects but it’s just not here at the moment

I understand, my Mum was a long-time warfarin user as well.

I don't think there's any point for that now. It's in Cartwright's court whether or not there is fraud, NRL are not obligated to investigate or prove validity, and the resources can be better spent elsewhere.

Can I please point out too, to all the muppets who lambasted the NRL for "daring" to aim to return by 28/May/20 (a few on here, many many more outside the forum), that:

- Bundesliga restarts May 16
- English PL has government approval to restart in June, probably 19 June
- Serie A will restart June 13
- La Liga are aiming to restart June 12 (not yet approved)
- K-League already restarted May 8
- Japanese Baseball League aims for June restart

Only Korea has a COVID-19 control profile anything like Australia does. PVL has proven himself to be way ahead of the curve in Australian sports response to COVID and that activity has put the NRL infront of every single trans-Tasman sport.

Korean Baseball League is currently being played..they have cut outs of fans in the Crowd NRL should adopt that

Easts already do it, should get onto Politis' supplier and get a bulk discount.

Venues are to be confirmed - but all matches will be hosted in NSW and Queensland. No home games for the Storm or Warriors as far as we know. Raiders TBC

Could've been much worse. 5:30pm and 6:30pm kickoffs

@Hangonaminute you didn't have to delete that post because you lost again.

I'm hearing from a player manager that an announcement was expected today regarding the structure of the competitions for 2021 including potential changes to Top 30 number, Canterbury Cup & Jersey Flegg.

This will have a huge impact on player rosters so I would expect a lot of movement on the cards over the next 6 weeks.

Thanks for the heads-up.

Let's see if they announce it today but that is what they were expecting.

I'm afraid it could have huge implications for our juniors as many may now be squeezed out with a drop in available dollars and player pools at NRL levels brought on by COVID.

And that's fair enough? Same goes for the immunocompromised... But these halfwits who reject on the "Me dids me innernets research" basis are just fools. Same fools who line the pockets and share memes of charlatans like David Avocado Wolfe.

Cartwright is dumber than a bag of rocks so even if there were any adverse cognitive effects he wouldn't be any worse off anyway.

He has a doctors certificate

Does it say anything about him being unable to tackle?
