    Such a gentle, logical nation!

    Possibly the most successful ever sports star and the most famous person from a relatively small nation. It's hardly that bizarre.

    The level of fanaticism is a bit scary.

    Agreed. Support strongly but still need to bit a bit realistic!

    Just caught some of the family press conference on Sky Sports News

    Questions asked of the brother -

    Can you confirm he tested positive on 16 Dec? Oh yes' he confirmed nodding

    Can you confirm he attended an event the very next day? He started ginning and answered 'this press conference is adjourned'

    What a great guy Novak is - the whole family behind him. I hope the 'torture' alleged by his mother is investigated.

    A great sporting role model.

    If I’ve got this right, he applied for his visa in November and only satisfied the requirements for the visa by catching covid a month later in December…. convenient 

    He then attended two public events in the 2 days after he received his positive test result and didn’t have to isolate for the 14 days as required by Serbian law. 

    Who in their right mind believes this idiot

    According to the BBC:

    1. Novak Djokovic has returned to the tennis court after winning a court battle in Australia that overturned his visa cancellation, his family says
    2. "Novak is free," his brother tells a press conference in Belgrade, Serbia
    3. "Justice has won and the rule of law has won," his father tells the media
    4. The men's number one himself is expected to join them by video link - he is yet to make any public appearance since being freed from detention
    5. Djokovic's lawyers argued in court that the visa cancellation was unreasonable and the judge agreed
    6. But Australia's immigration minister still has powers to re-cancel the visa and deport the unvaccinated tennis player
    Shit I've just had 1000 'Free Novak' tee shirts made.

    The Serbian government will just lie on his behalf if required and I have no idea what the Australian government is doing.

    If he did genuinely test positive and then swanned around infecting people I assume everyone is okay with this?

    You couldn't make this stuff up.

    That's pretty much seems to be it and the deadline for the exemption was 10 Dec, 6 days before he tested positive (and went to events and to Paris)

    I'm sure someone can give a clear explanation that makes some sort of sense?

    I  cant see how though. If there is a clear explanation, the give it.

    I think they have got their way and don't care. Again

    If Novak's behaviour has been as cavalier as has been suggested then it just shows what an unpleasant individual he is...

    My understanding is that the court hearing today only considered the fact that Djokovic had been treated unfairly by the immigration department who didn't allow him the time they granted for him to come up with more evidence. The judge did not look at the chronology or the facts surrounding his claim for an exemption.

    It is becoming increasingly clear that such claim for exemption was fabricated and is riddled with inconsistencies, out of chronological sequence, and bare-faced lies. If Morrison has any balls he would overrule the judgement and kick him out. I won't hold my breath though.

    The clearest explanation I can give is 1 rule for the rich and famous and 1 rule for everyone else.

    I think you have probably nailed it.

    Getting back, for a moment, to the reason Novak is in Australia in the first place, tennis, imprisonment is hardly the ideal preparation for an athlete embarking upon a Grand Slam. There must be a point whereby Novak decides to say 'sod your tournament' and return home to Serbia if he considers that he has little or no chance of defending his title through lack of practice.

    He's back on a court already no doubt in his luxury accommodation with his personal chef. Got what he wanted by hook or by.....

    Not sure if they will take any further action, although I really hope so

    He's already had a training session at the stadium today within hours of being released and the tournament doesn't start for another week.

    Admittedly he hasn't had the best few days prep but he still has plenty of time.
  • The Anti Vaxxers will see it as a victory for them, but in reality, it's a victory for the rich & famous.

    Disappointed, but not surprised
