Wrong.....

Our full academy team were isolating....

We didn't have 17 fit first team players and as our academy team couldn't play we were unable to fulfil the game.

but the official statement said among other things

the threshold for a covid19 postponement has not been met.

Yeh and we took a 24-0 loss???

Just like Huddersfield did also.

This is our first covid related call off this season which is pretty good going compared to other teams. Saints also have called it off this week so clearly something was going around down in London.

Spotted this post from a well respected poster on the Wigan forum




Definitely food for thought this

I thought saints only cancelled one game. the rest were due to there opponents.could be wrong mind.
cas on the other hand.....

Agree. They could have legal cases on their hands if not careful. It could be a complete shambles

So in round 25 of the season it's a shoot out between Hull KR , Rhinos and Castleford for the final 2 places in the play offs
Warrington will probably rest plenty of their squad in order to freshen them up for the play offs IMO and Cas will win this one

So it's a home shoot out between Rhinos v Hull KR for the play off's final position

Not sour grapes or whining from me as I posted this topic ages ago
Hull KR limping into the play off's whilst missing tough fixtures that could not be rearranged against
Saints, Hull FC, Catalans and Wolves could prove very convenient for them after all

I’m honestly not so sure they’ll rest players to be honest, they rested the majority of their front row against Salford, they’ve only just started getting Williams and Widdop together.

Catalans was rearranged and played, in fact we payed Catalan 3 times, Saints, Hull FC and Warrington all cancelled there games against us. Out of all the teams we were the one trying to get cancelled games played but none of the other sides were willing to play. Not sure what we could do about that.

Hull KR played Catalans 3 times the other matches you mention were cancelled by those clubs not Hull KR.

As I posted previously on this thread, some clubs have not been able to rearrange fixtures against the better sides and it is certainly proving beneficial to their league position by way of percentage points being the deciding factor



Perhaps Leeds were foolish to rearrange certain fixtures like Catalans away for example?
But I believe that morally the club did the correct thing by fulfilling as many games as was possible.
