Australia has again cancelled the world No 1’s visa. His fate was sealed when he conceded an error in his paperwork and acknowledged attending an interview after a positive Covid test

Australia’s chief medical officer and an independent Victorian government board would guarantee him a shot at his 10th Australian Open and record 21st grand slam.

First set Djokovic. He took to Melbourne Park, ensuring familiar images of him on Rod Laver Arena’s Avatar-blue court that seemed to promise another shot at grand slam greatness. Scott Morrison’s ‘rules are rules’ refrain showed this is where the Coalition thinks the balance of public opinion liesAccepting the loss on procedural grounds, the government’s lawyer warned the minister was still considering the nuclear option of re-cancelling his visa.

Djokovic’s Wednesday statement conceded error in his paperwork, blamed an agent who had filled it out, and acknowledged an “error of judgment” attending an interview and photo shoot after he received his result. Yes, the decision is harsh, as most travellers’ declarations are not subjected to this level of scrutiny. Yes, it will have an enormous impact on Djokovic and his quest to be recognised as the greatest male singles player of all time.

That option is for losers

Are the Serbs who all had a tizzy fit the other day going to have another open air sook?

now he can just F off , and stay away for three years , there's a good lad .

The fact that opinions like this give so little to weight to the inhumane treatment Djokovic has received as a political pawn just goes to show how narrow and trash 🗑️ this piece is. If people think this is how a country should conduct itself they are absolutely deluded.

He either lied about the 2nd COVID bout to get around the vaxx rules or lied about his movements while positive. Either way, he did the wrong thing, administrative error or not. That aside, the Aus govt has handled this very badly. Send Djoker packing and VoteThemAllOut2022

*vaccine hesitant*? Have governments & MSM avoided simple questions from the start (Ct, cases with context, died from v with)? Have Governments / Bigpharma / WHO tried to 'convince' people before? Swine Flu *scandal* - 2009 4 minute MSM video:

Maybe the brown shirt force could have taken this to court on Monday, instead of creating this farcical epsiode that's dragged on for over a week

One unvaccinated person started the Covid wave in Sydney early last year .

That's too much to ask from a man who doesn't even complete his own immigration declaration (a less than 2-minutes task)!

Not lied. Put correct information on his forms. Not lie about other travel. Not infect others while alledegdly positive. Hows that for starters

As senator Lambie said, 'It's about being a bloody adult.' Take some responsibility and accept the consequences of your decisions.

He need to realise that he is a guest here and respect the rules of any country he goes to.

He should have done the right thing, as any other individual travelling to any country under current pandemic restrictions. The Australian is an example to the work, not to mention to the UK - on immigration law/rules-you maintain them regardless of who you are/status!!.

Hate actions.
