Port Adelaide in quarantine after AFL game

All Port Adelaide players and staff who travelled to the Gold Coast for Saturday’s AFL round-one game are now in quarantine for 14 days.

Players, coaches and staff are self-isolating for two weeks at the behest of the South Australian government and SA health officials.

“Port Adelaide fully supports this decision … the club acknowledges every precaution must be taken against the spread of the coronavirus,” Port said in a statement on Monday.

The SA government on Sunday introduced strict border controls which require any person entering the state to self-isolate for 14 days as the Power returned to Adelaide.

The AFL competition has been suspended until at least May 31 in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
