Coronavirus

[bondi.boy]

People are currently calling talkback radio saying cruising is their hobby, they love cruising, and can't wait to get cruising again.
Lovely, I like everyone to be happy...deliriously happy.

Before our air and sea travel bans are lifted...it should be clearly explained to every Australian citizen and permanent resident that from now on if they leave Australia they do so at their own risk, and own cost for every possible scenario.
Virgin is $5bn in debt. Only 10% owned by Branson, the rest being Etihad, Singapore, and two Chinese companies.
Tiger a subsidiary.
Reportedly lost $700m last year.
$1.4bn rescue loan from ScoMo govt? maybe not.
Maybe only QANTAS will survive.
Qantas staff should not have to be flying to all parts of the globe on rescue missions, some of them already caught Covid-19, the disease from the Corona virus. The disease has neurological effect on the body, shuts down organs...apparently.

The warnings should very seriously given.
Next time, things for infected cruise ships might be different.

I nominate this as the Chookpens Worst Thread Ever.

Who thinks Aubo will go around again next year after this disrupted season?

And just to stay on topic. Corona the beer tastes like crap!

Stupid people will still do stupid things.

As for the airlines. Qantas is our national carrier so could be argued for some assistance if needed but in general, airlines have been ripping the guts out of every day travelers for ever and make absolute squillions out of them. Let them bail themselves out for once like every other business in the country right now struggling to make ends meet.

Even though Branson only owns 10% nowdays, i bet hes still got all the cash behind him from the sale to the other corporations so surely he can step up to a degree and look after his 10%. . Why is it that our government that is struggling to look after our own, should be responsible to bail out a billionaire who will still be a billionaire after all this gets better?

Why should we support an airline that is majority owned (i believe) by Chinese corporations when the Chinese are the pricks responsible for this whole debacle? Again, they will still be wealthy mobs regardless of any Aus Gov assistance.

BTW, I dont know what the hell I am talking about. Its just sounds good to have a moan and groan.

I reckon this disrupted season could extend the playing careers of many who were going to retire at the end of it if it were a normal 25 rounds.

While it has now been brought into the mainstream, cruising was a very popular pastime a while back. You may remember it?

Cruising makes people happy.

Here is a song from those wonderfully hatted cruisers who sung the original tune to Roosterman.

I nominate this as the Chookpens Worst Thread Ever.

I agree and can mods shut it down or put it into other discussion forum.

It's sounding like talkback radio only we have Bongon Boy as our shock jock....

Perhaps u could start up a separate thread Bongon Boy's Current Affairs discussion thread in other discussion.

Roosters discussion should be predominantly about Roosters footy, etc, we get enough info about Covid-19, and discussion on it on relevant social media, news websites, etc.

If we are to continue to talk about it, pls move it so it's not thrust onto the main page or for Christ sake close this thread down.....

BTW for me, this has been the worst thread ever....

I get it's a footy forum and that's why we are here but surely it doesn't matter were it's located , if you don't want to read it don't click on it .It's the most important issue the world is facing and has faced for generations after all
And with over 1k of replies I think most agree

Go the Roosters!

There... its Roosters related now!

That beer has ceased production, think I read somewhere.

Someone here said Aubo looked slow in one of the two games we played this year...as I remember.

At the Panthers game someone held up a placard, captured by a tv camera, that read.

REAL
PANTHERS FANS
DONT GET

Some Roosters fans could be Qantas flight crew.
Some Roosters fans could be Virgin staff.
All Roosters fans are navigating the pandemic.. fact that social distancing could be going for years to come...no. fans allowed at games
Some Roosters fans might be intending to go on cruises and without proper warnings get themselves into trouble.
Some Roosters fans could be affected by the govt spending misguided money on airline bailouts.

I thought it was all relative to the the thread title being where it is.
I would not deliberately set out to annoy forum members.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

This is a long way from the worst thread I've seen on here. You will find a similar one on most forums across the globe.

Where else can we put our silly coronavirus jokes?
