Quote ="just_browny"The point I'm making is that there are sporting events being postponed across a number of sports. It is annoying that it is happening in RL, but we are usually proud of the fact that our players are down to earth people who are part of the community they represent. Just seen that there have been 36,000 Covid cases today, so if it is happening to normal folk it will be still be happening to RL players, regardless of the fact we are all fed up of hearing about Covid.
Incidentall they're definitely not working all week in League 2, and there'll be some players on a decent wedge as low down as the National League.'"
All these other sports haven’t had anywhere near the same level of disruption as what rugby league have had though.
The Government guidance has recently changed, therefore Catalans and rugby league should be adhering to them like everyone else is supposed to.
Super League and those making the decisions have made it far too easy from the off for teams to not fulfil their fixtures and in many ways it’s better for them to not play than to play and lose given the ridiculous format that’s in place.
They’ve made a rod for their own back and for the sake of the game and it’s future they need to clear it up and get rid of these protocols and loopholes in order to give teams every incentive to fulfil their fixtures as this just isn’t sustainable for all concerned.
It’s beyond me how anyone can even consider how Magic Weekend is a good idea given the fact we’ve probably only had one full weekend of fixtures in almost three months. Add to that all the unfulfilled fixtures and the lopsided look to the fixtures, it makes it an even bigger farce how it’s going ahead in its current form and that fixtures aren’t being tweaked at the very least.
