They're fore-casted highs and lows. Take them with a pinch of salt as every weather report has different figures.

Yes but you know everyone on here is an expert! Some people have absolutely no sense at all. It's freezing down here. The RFL, so I have been told, made the decision early to stop most of the fans and the team travelling. There is a weather warning telling pople not to travel unless it is absolutely neccesary. But who care about that when the people on here know everything

Takings will be in the millions. It's unsurprising they are better able to get the game on.

| Twickenham has undersoil heating and of course they don't have their pitch in use quite so often so they will have had a better chance of keeping it in good nick.

Yep, I booked my train tickets and accommodation a couple of months ago. Like I said, there's plenty of other stuff to do in London but thats not the point! grrrr!

It will be an absolute disgrace if we are forced to play another date because of a friendly. I've lost money on an over night hotel already, the only reasonable decision now is to ask Manly to make other arrangements that do not affect SL. Can you imagine the NRL disrupting their fixtures for something that neither sides of the World take too seriously?

| I'll probably have a junior ticket to sell by the way, as it appears a member of our travelling party has dropped out and was never really interested in going in the first place.

Sorry mate but you`ve got that wrong imo. I can`t think for a second that Quins would have any advantage in postponing a game if it wasn`t necessary; how many are going to turn up to the (probable) mid-week new date? A good deal fewer than on a Sunday I`ll bet.
A Saturday inspection is plenty of time to tell if a game is definitely off, personally I`d like to thank them for saving my time tomorrow, even though I`ve paid for a match ticket and coach travel and most likely won`t be able to get to the game now.

seriously doubt that will happen as its part of RFL's promotion of rugby in london. basically we've had our pre-season disrupted for the benefit of harlequins and no benefit to ourselves. Now we're going to have the handicap of having to play 3 games in 7 days at some point during the year to add insult to injury. Th only possible benefit to us is that we may have bird and lynch available for the re-arranged fixture.
assuming that the RFL dont cancel the many fixture and put us back on in round 2 then the only fair thing they could do is allow the bulls to nominate when we play the fixture so we get to play a mid week where we dont have tough games either side. You watch them make us play it between leeds and saints or similar though
doesnt help that its the 2nd year running that our pre-season has been disrupted by a WCC that we arent even involved in

| quick look at fixtures suggest between round 14 and 15 would be the preferred mid week from a bulls perspective. Salford on the friday followed by wakey on the sunday so we have 4/5 days between games and two teams who we should be beating either side.

| So one or two people would rather the game be called off tomorrow morning when most of the Bull's support will already be on the motorway?

Well I won't be going down mid week. And if they do re-arrange it for mid-week I won't be booking any weekends in London for future fixtures either. I think we've be pretty flexible by allowing the fixture change disrupt our preparations already. I would expect the club to stand firm and insist the match is re-scheduled on the date it should have been played. Harlequins will have to field their reserves, unfortunate but it is only a warm up game.

that would be ideal but doubt it will happen as RFL have been pushing quins/manly to promote league in london.
whenever they re-schedule should be weighted in our favour as we're the ones who have been put out, for no benefit, initially

According to the quins website
www.league.quins.co.uk/home.php
"It is now scheduled to take place before the Warrington Game on Saturday 14th March."
edit - daft bugger. That's the community cup

Not good enough.
In Leigh and Widnes the hot air produced by them whining about Celtic last night would have been enough to negate any drop in temperature, and we wouldn't have had to set off til tomorrow dinnertime anyway

| Stop grumbling. At end of the day nobody can control the weather. If the the pitch is frozen, then player safety is priorty. Im sure quins would have loved the game to have gone ahead, but its proved not possible and if it means you now have to go down in midweek then welcome to the real world. At least your players dont have to take a day off work like London Skolars had to do when they had to go to Barrow on a Wednesday 2 years ago.
