Australia Latest News, Australia Headlines

The New Zealand Warriors are on their way to Australia to prepare for the resumption of the NRL season, but two players have not got on the plane — one on compassionate grounds, the other due to illness.

The club said Fusitu'a had been granted compassionate leave to delay his departure, while Roache was ordered to stay home after contacting medical staff on Sunday morning to say he was unwell. "He was instructed to have a test immediately and was told not to report at the airport as he would not be travelling with the team.

Roache only played six games in 2019, and was not part of the Warriors' side in the first two rounds of this year before coronavirus forced the season to be shut down.

The UK strategy was based on having 60-70% of the total population getting infected. Hospitals just can't cope.

'Incredible outcome': Just five new coronavirus cases in NSW despite near-record testing - ABC NewsHealth authorities in NSW carried out more than 8,800 tests yesterday, and they're delighted that only five came back positive. It really is an incredible outcome given that Brad Hazzard allowed the Ruby Princess to dock in Sydney. Good to see BradHazzard and NSWHealth being so forthright about the NZWarriors flying in to NSW .. Maybe the warriors should have just come in by boat , he and NSW Health seem to be far more relaxed when you turn up that way ..
