Djokovic

Presumably followed by the 3 year re-entry ban also.

Possibly, I'm actually surprised but delighted, didn't expect the Government to act at this late stage, nor clearly did Novak.

He has the option to appeal but the open will have started or even be finished by the time an appeal death with and I suspect that's what's driven this late decision by the Aussie Government.

Highly unlikely a second appeal will be fast tracked like his first.

Clever move by the Government actually.

Think this was always coming. Australia are notoriously strict on their border controls and it really looked like Djokovic was taking the piss out of them.

I agree and it was just about timing, damned if they did, damned if they didn't cancel his Visa, clearly their priority was Australian Citizens feeling on this debacle, I suspect the scenes would have been ugly at the open, had he played

It’s a bit of a Djoke

Why would he be imprisoned 🤔, apart from detention before being deported 🤔 I'd be doubtful imprisonment is on the table here, just an energetic Drop kicking out of the country.

Good enough for him, farcical that it stretched out for so long. Why should he be any different than the rest of us!

Onwards and downwards to the next bollox distraction.

This is a personal power afforded to the Minister under the Migration Act 1958, next to impossible to successfully appeal as the decision is specifically exempted from the principles of natural justice under Australian law - right or wrong is irrelevant, separation of power also likely plays a part in preventing any successful appeal, I think it's safe to say he won't be playing any tennis in Australia any time in the near future.

I doubt this is the end of it, I'm sure his lawyers will appeal it and an injunction will be granted. Case will probably be heard next week while he plays.

Perhaps the end of his professional career now? Don’t see how he can go on a court again after such (deserved) humiliation

That's right, everyone call out for the same sanctions to be imposed on him as we have had to endure. Classic fallen angel behavior. It's the only way we can feel satisfaction now

Honestly that's highly, highly unlikely, sure, he's entitled to appeal but certainly not entitled to play tennis or do what he pleases during an appeal and more likely to be subject to strict detention rules.

Imprison him for what?

What a horrible shower!!!!
