Thats my point. Chapylad said we have had more cases than NRL.

Sorry Marty, I quoted the wrong post!

Hull are supposed to be on standby aren't they? WE should be playing them if cas are stood down. Have we played Hull twice this year?

We've only played them once this year (the first game of the season) but then we wouldn't have a game the round we are supposed to play them (Sunday 25th October) as that would take a load of rejigging of fixtures.

Win the cup and then sack the season off. Insert smiling devil face emoji here, as it didn't work.

Amended....

What a world we live in, that a team was put on standby incase of Covid issues... and it happened. If that doesn't say bonkers idea to continue, I don't what does. Hull have nothing to play for, and we barely do. Just justifying wages.

When will muppets get it - they're playing so that the clubs don't go bankrupt.

Have Sky ever said they would stop payment of the TV money if fixtures wasnt fulfilled due to teams having Covid??? I highly doubt they have and if they have which other sports have they said it to?

They haven’t Marty, and they never would have done. The money is too low for them to bat an eyelid where rugby league is concerned. However, Hetherington said it, as it was a risk, so our resident same poster can only contribute what the club says as fact, as per every single post he does. Not able to form his own opinion.

Well done Hull though, for such a circus of a competition currently, to just come in like that, not ready and players of own missing. Not putting themselves first, but working in the silliness of what the league have instructed.

Yes Gotcha, it’s only Gary Hetherington that has ‘said it’, no one else, no other chairman or people in the sport, you know best of course.

I mean its not as if it was widely reported at the time that Sky agreeing to continue to pay this year was reliant on the game resuming, it’s all a lie from Hetherington.

Erm... Its an opinion poll. Name calling from grown adults is pathetic and inappropriate. 14000 daily cases now. The government needs to act, because people won't protect themselves.

Ciao for now. See you on the other side maybe.

Well said. It’s obvious the money will stop if the competition is abandoned. We have to keep going and credit to all for doing their best.

And how many deaths? Also bearing in mind a death is recorded as a covid death if they have had a positive covid test with 28 days of their death, not necessarily because they died directly from it.

Tbf to RFL and clubs, they are actually doing Pretty well with a complicated and evolving scenario.
Credit where credits due, we need professional sport and the arts more than ever during this winter!!
