Good stuff.
Now we need a quality import CB. Look at the impact Lacroix is having at WU. 
Side note. Really hope there are no changes to NSW border policy. Could make bringing anyone else in difficult, and would delay the return of Hopper.

NSW Premier is pretty bullish on keeping his state open. So unless deaths, and ICU admissions skyrocket with Omicron, don't expect any border changes.

Trying for another loan deal, on a match fit visa CB out there makes sense. But unless they can find someone who is match fit ready to go, don't see Welnix throwing cash at anymore visa signings with season soon 38% over, them bleeding cash in Aussie, and Nix likely struggling to make the top 6. Might as well go for a longer term focus, blood some of the Weenix kids like Surman, and give Talay what he wants for season 2022/23.

What was that about unless deaths and ICU admissions etc?
Not looking good at all. 
NSW have just been lambasted by Queensland for allowing virus to run amok.

It's still too early to say how the Omicron strain is going to pan out, and there is definitely always a lag effect of 3-4 weeks it seems.

But if we use the brutal measurement of deaths, seems we shouldn't be too pessimistic. NSW with a sky high 11,201 new cases today. But only 3 deaths. In a world (not NZ) context that's a low number. The 3, I note were aged 70s to 80s, all fully vaccinated but all with underlying health conditions.

NSW Health said most of the 625 people currently in hospital had not received two doses of the vaccine.

Again too early to say what's going to happen, but is a lot of consistent evidence from around the world now that Omicron is going to be milder than all earlier strains. For sure NZ Govt will be watching situation in Aus very very closely. Their move to extend date Kiwis can arrive from Aus, sans MIQ the right call.
