Could be difficult to continue fixture list.
6 players out if the squad after the Salford game.

Both salford and hull unable to attend training for at least one week and have to isolate for 21 days. More testing to take pkace tomorrow.
Just dont see how the season can continue at this stage.

Wonder if the problem is the lack of a bubble. In the NRL, I think the players are all confined together. Here, they're not, the pubs are open again, and Albert Kelly is in the squad. One night on the lash, a few days training, and the virus ripples through the squad.

Also, makes you wonder whether some of the Hull players were a bit under the weather on Sunday, hence the result.

Although they'd all tested negative in the round of testing...................
They were just sh*t.

Featherstone Rovers have already been on to the RFL to say they'll take both their places.

Bit unfair on Salford really, none of the Hull players were quick enough to lay a finger on the Salford players.

Sounds like we are now playing Catalans at the weekend and not Saints.

11 Salford players who came in close contact with the 6 HULL players who have Covid now have to isolate for 14 days

Isolation is for 10 days.

its not, if you come in close contact with someone who has it;

its 10days if you are showing symptons i believe.

The initial sl statement said isolation was for ten days reference to hull
The other statements or media pieces I gave read after sl statement have said two weeks when taking about Salford

What you’ve said makes sence to me

Hull are playing in the cup next week so how does that work

When you say "playing", do you mean they should be playing or, that they will be playing.
I would expect their game to be postponed but, we have to wait and see.

A further three Hull players now confirmed positive for Covid.

You wouldn't think that they were such a tight knit bunch that would catch it from each other with how they played last weekend.
However, on a serious note, 9 players from their squad is very significant.
The Hudds coach's comments about replicating the NRL "bubbles" seem to be about right and if SL wants to get to the end of the season, ALL clubs need to tighten their rules/protocol and try to ensure that we can get through the games that are left.
