Given that around 75,000 NHS staff members are unwilling to take the vaccine never mind the booster, they will have great difficulty punishing anyone for not doing it.

Clubs have squads of 30 players so whats the problem? Close contacts dont have to isolate anymore so as long as you have 17 players out of 30 who dont have Covid, no reason to postpone.

The 48-0 idea is a great one and will stop those clubs from last season who had 2 positive tests (their 2 best players) looking for a postponement.

We hadn't played a game for about 6 weeks at one point, before succumbing to covid problems ourselves. We also played an away fixture at Catalans which in the end didn't have to be played, so wheres the angst against Rovers come from here? Or did you just look at last year's table and assume?!! Are you forgetting your beloved Saints conveniently pulled out the fixture a week after the Challenge Cup? Cas I get as your point but I don't particularly get why you've highlighted Leeds either.'" nope was KR https://www.skysports.com/rugby-league/ ... t-positive cas played 3 more games than saints and 2 less than Leeds so cant see where Saddeneds' point against those teams come from!

I think there was only two clubs who didn’t call off games from their end last year.

I think Leigh actually went a month without a game due to other clubs systematically using what was in force.

They do if they're not vaccinated.
