What a Pack of Lies Australians were stranded overseas because of a Incompetent Morrison Government That was reluctant to bring them Home with no where to put them and the cost of putting them in Hotels Australia had no isolation facilities and hospitals as now are overwhelmed

congrats!

Why shouldn’t they be? His careless actions proved that he doesn’t pay any attention rules and preventing actions. Why should Australians risk their effort and sacrifice they went through for last two years like many around the globe!? He should have been kicked out on day one!!

stockholm syndrome

Because the majority of them are vaccinated?

He's not an anti vaxxer though. Maybe against this particular vaccine, yes. Which I can understand...

I'm with you Aussies! So sick of this guy 🙄 Good riddance!

vaccinated:

Shame on Australia . I removed Australia flag and put Serbia flag . Australia is behaving very evil now

This is so bad. It’s a tough situation but maybe he will be able to play in other tournaments.

relax your mind with this gentle stress relief ambient music

relax like a baby with this wonderful rain music

Because they are brainwaahed

Today in Australia, the LAW prevailed and the BULLYING defeated. I am so delighted for.

Go home man 💓

He’s not an Anti-Vaxxer🤦🏼‍♂️ & the clever Australian’s are furious with the authorities.

Australian government is fascist

Why aren't we?!? He is criminally negligent. This epidemic started with ONE I repeat, ONE case...what a toxic narcissist!!!

Ironic, DjokerNole persevering to defend his title being hated by couch critiques, but Simone Biles caving in is revered. Hilarious.

After what the Australian population went through, under collective agreement for the past two years, there was no other outcome than denying an unvaccinated “vaccine sceptic” entry. Allowing him to enter and compete would have been a slap in the face of the Australian people.

You should know better than calling someone who took a bunch of vaccines during his life an antivaxxer... But I guess journalism is not what it used to be...

Because the vaccinated are now worried they will be the ones dying, all the people I know that got covid-19 were vaccinated 🙈🙈🙈 😂😂😂😂😂🤟✌️

Correction: the australian fascist goverment is. Not Australians.

Because, he highlighted the misery of Australian people in the hand of govt. He highlighted simple science which was hidden by elites and profit makers.

Furious? Entertained more like it.

Problem is not in Djokovic,he didn't came in Australia with mind set I don't care I am number one.He had his team talk to Australia's officials and he was granted to come and play.Everything that followed was just a political game to make locked Australians feel little bit better

I’m triple vaccinated that’s why I had to get vaccinated or face unemployment

I get it. Australians aren’t the only ones furious at that dope.

Thanks to the judges of the Federal Court of Australia, reason, law and common sense finally prevailed NovakDjokovic DjokerNole AusOpen AlexHawkeMP

Democracy 2022, freedom 🇰🇵🇦🇨

dunia semakin edan. manusia dipaksa ketergantungan vaksin.

Everyone hates him because he beats the shit out of Federer and Nadal. It’s safe to stop him outside of tennis court.

no one like arrogance

Woo hoo! 🙌 🇦🇺 NoViz4Novax!

Programming is why

Wondering what impact this victory has on vaccination across the world, Djokovic being who he is (a tennis icon).

So the rules are only for the poor? Who has money buys the rules?

Chers amis australiens, je penses que vous allez lui faire une entrée mémorable sur le court avec vos siflets....et votre voix, il ne mérite plus un seul applaudissement.

He is a LEGEND

Absurd. He has lots of support. If he wins again, he will have more titles than the current champ (who happens to be an Aussie!)

Nah, we aren't . We are furious with our pathetic government

Because He is not exempt, and should go through the process as everyone else! He shouldn't be allowed to play, as simple as that.

DjokerNole has an opportunity to set a good example and move the world forward by getting vaccinated and following the rules. Otherwise, he shows poor sportsmanship and that he doesn’t care about the millions of lives lost and the ripple effect this pandemic has had globally.

They can surely boycott him and continue protest against him and his team. I used to support him but not anymore. It’s irresponsible, selfish and greedy!

suptmoran 🙄 Australians needs to protest these games.

Djokovic is at least disrespectful, he is sending a wrong message in many ways, directly and indirectly which can add and can put at risk people, and Australian measures that seemed and still works to control and to manage this pandemic and prevent a high death toll.

Australian goverment is a tyranny. Glory to Djokovic!

They should boycott the tournament…

Because they’re all suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. Next article

Maybe because medias like yours use titles like '…about anti-vaxxer Novak Djokovic' It’s false. He doesn’t want the vaccine for himself, yes that’s true. But he’s not against it.

We have passed 2 years in pandemic and you still attack to healthy people that survived this period without any problem! When the vaccines don't stop infection, hospitalization,even death and transmitting the virus, it is all personal choice!

Novak Djokovic: judge ‘agitated’ by issue of why Australian government did not accept tennis player’s medical exemptionJudge at hearing asks ‘what more could he have done?’ given medical exemption from Covid vaccination was by qualified physician and backed by Victorian government but wasn't the govt submission distinguishing 'exemption' from 'contraindication'? 🙄🙄🙄 I am not a fan of Djokovic and his Antivaxx statements, but I do hope Karen Andrews is coming out with 🍳 egg on her face about this debacle. We have to pay for legal procedures for this government again to the tune if $50,000 if not more.

Zendaya is a true movie star – why won’t Hollywood let her be great?She’s one of the finest young actors around, but so far only TV’s ‘Euphoria’ has let Zendaya showcase the depth of her talent. Otherwise popping up for just seven minutes in ‘Dune’ and spending most of the Spider-Man franchise on the sidelines, she more than warrants a film all to herself, writes Adam White I don’t think I’ve seen a single movie with her in it. If I have, I didn’t even notice her. She can’t be that good. I watched 'Spider-Man: Far from Home' and fell asleep 20 minutes into it and woke just before the end. I tried again the next day extra coffee and still fell asleep. I'm sure it's a good film. It may exist in my subconsciousness somewhere. “Is a true movie star”? Really? You must be high on something to make that opinion
