A firm decision to not make a decision appears to have been made.

"AFL chief hints at further season delay
A decision on when the AFL season will resume could be delayed until next month as the league continues negotiations with government authorities.
AFL chief executive Gillon McLachlan remains hopeful of providing a detailed outline as to how a return to football will look next week.
But he conceded on Thursday the intricacies presented by COVID-19 and the differences in regulations on a state-by-state basis may lead to a further delay until consensus is reached.
“What I will make clear is that we are working to (a timeline),” he told Triple M radio.
“It will hopefully be in the next couple of weeks, but things change with governments and health officers, but we are optimistic of a return to play timeframe in coming weeks, whether it is the last week of April, first week of May, or thereabouts, (to announce) we are going forward.”
AFL fixtures boss Travis Auld said on Wednesday the option of using hubs as a starting point for the season was looming as the most likely option.
McLachlan said the AFL was investigating the merits of each state, with the prospect three separate hubs could be used.
“The first port of call is that the states actually want us to set up there and we work through the logistics from there,” he said.
“There are a wide range of options. I doubt we will be playing in every state or territory, but we are looking at every possibility.”"
