Thank you for covering this. Novak is a true champion, unlike "follow the rules" Nadal. Australia has forever tainted tennis history.

Nadal and Federer showed their true colours. I wasn't a big fan of Djokovic up till this hoopla, but now I am his huge fan! Nole the GOAT!

What did Federer do? He is so classy it would take a lot for me to lose respect for him. He doesn't have a chance to win another grand slam while Nadal and Novak still do for another year or two. Medvedev had Nadal on the ropes too, shame he couldn't play spoiler like he did with Novak at the US Open.

Glad you've asked. I could ask the same thing. He did absolutely nothing! Allowed this travesty to play out and kept out of this. By doing nothing he's shown his true colours. That is why I've lost all respect for him. He could've pulled a few strings here and there, but he's one of them now - a sellout. And for what? Is he so poor that he can't afford a decent position? And he wants his 4 kids to live in such world? Disgusting.

Nadal henceforth will be know as Trophy Snatcher.

You cannot be an anti-vaxxer if it is not a vaccine.

No one has been "vaccinated" for COVID-19!

Words matter!

-->Sajid Javid, the health secretary said “Mr Djokovic thinks its ok for spectators to take the vaccine that allows him to get back to play the sport in front of them and earn millions…but the vaccine is not ok for him”.

Javid has the ability to read minds? Not just an MP and minister for health, but a clairvoyant. Congratulations! Informed consent and natural immunity have no consideration, apparently. This is a theatre of the absurd, as played by clowns like Javid.

What projection! Isn't it Javid who thinks it's okay for millions of people to be forced to take the vaccine that 'allows' them to be spectators? What the hell has that got to do with Djokovic??

Australia will be judged by history as the vax-apartheid “Sun City” of the world

Most worrying comment was “ Novak didn’t want to complain about the detention centre because he was there for 7 days and some people have been there for years but it wasn’t pleasant;” people had been there for YEARS!! WTF?! And he didnt want to say anything ?!

Was there a standing immigration rule for detaining him and depriving him of his freedom for a week? I know they are power grabbing authoritarians - so besides that.

Interesting they confiscated his phone.

I admire how he has handled this whole absurd situation. You know, like an well-grounded adult.

There’s an old saying:

“A lie can make it around the world 10 times before the truth can get its’ pants on”

This was true before Corporate Journalism became corrupt propaganda and political narrative. Imagine today. Our mainstream media now seem to believe their job is to launch the lies and keep them in perpetual low earth orbit, while censoring the truth with a self-declared dress code.

So now the lies make it around the world 100 times, or 1,000. And where is the truth? Locked in the dressing room.

It is a testimony to how critical the Fourth Estate has been to maintaining fee and open societies, and what can happen when it is all corrupted.

I read the article the BBC posted about Novak. Throughout it they sprinkled their propaganda “safe and effective - consensus is settled” nonsense to make sure that nobody listened to him and actually made up their own minds. If you can’t stop free speech, try stopping free thought.

All westerners take notes and learn from this serb: this is how a man acts.

Now, all you soy-toys and pink-haired hippos, what say you go find your spine, yes?

(Unfortunately, the odds of some hipster faced limp-wristed [long list of pejoratives] reading this 'stack is probably the same as an auSStralian politician owning up to what an absolute fluster-cluck their policies are.)

To clarify, he didn't actually say this he just said he agreed when the interviewer asked this as part of the question.

Such statements are so much politically correct pablum for woke media so he doesn't get cancelled as 'anti-vax.' Nothing more, IMO. Surely, he's seen, or seen reports of, his age-contemporaries in football/soccer collapsing while playing and has no desire to experience those effects.

Tongue-in-cheek, no doubt. He still wants to be allowed to play for Grand Slams in stupid countries like UK and France. Australia is out for good, I guess. The land of upside-down.

No more Grand Slams for him, I am afraid. Too free for this new shitty world.

If most tennis players are jabbed, most will eventually suffer some health consequences and be out of competition early in their career.

Give it 5 years - the earth's population will look very different from today. No professional sports to speak of in 2027, as to participate, they will have dutifully taken any and all poison on a tight schedule. 5 years tops - all will be disposed of in a most efficient way - 6 feet under or up the chimney. Sadly. By realistically.

When they knew he wasn't infectious because of the PCR and/or antigen testing, they should have relented their absurd tyrannies, following rules that make no sense because if he's not infected, then he won't infect others, and we all know you can spread it if vaccinated.

Don’t trust any of the Novak situation. False hero, the fact he went on the BBC says a lot about the narrative. Smokescreen for an alternative agenda

What do you think that agenda is?

Removal of ones Freedom of Movement. Restrictions on your Human Rights. The “Vax” has been a tool to push/force this agenda.

Basically they were making a point that the “rules” could be enforced no matter who you are. He was the chosen one to be presented as a “non conformer”. Could have been any high profile celeb or sportsperson. Put out in the press to give people a hero and hope and that the unvaxxed has someone to look up to. The narrative isn’t going away. He was just a smokescreen. He is right up there with them all that push the “vax” but being potrayed as the other side of the fence. He’s just jumped over for a bit to pretend he is a “good guy”. He’ll be back over there before you know it.

Australian here 🙋‍♀️ Not upset by the Novak drama and embarrassed for my country in how he was treated. Our government are idiots. Sorry.

Except he's wrong, the vaccines don't help against covid, besides giving people a psychological boost which wanes once the toxicity hits hard.
