Episode description

Australians are keen to get back on the sporting field but given the close contact and the huge numbers of people involved, could it spark a second wave that undoes all our hard work? We speak to Tim Cotter  - Head Coach Newcastle City Blues Australian Football Club and Paul Kelly  - Deputy Chief Medical Officer.

 

In today’s headlines:

  • 30-year-old man becomes Australia's youngest coronavirus death
  • Annika Smethurst won’t be charged over spy agency story
  • Trump threatens to shut down social media companies after tweet is fact-checked
  • NASA and SPACE-X launch humans into orbit for the first time on a private rocket
  • 300 million expected to watch NRL’s return tonight

 

In today’s Briefing we ask: Does the Deputy Chief Medical Officer Paul Kelly think we’re taking too big a risk? How is a Newcastle Aussie Rules club preparing for training with the governments complicated list of dos and don’ts and COVID-19 protocols for community sport?
