| Quote: Saddened! "Saints have tonight be awarded the game against Cas tomorrow due to 'a range of unfortunate circumstances'. Namely that Cas can't field a team in Super League.
It's getting beyond a joke now. Any team not fielding a team should lose the points. Covid is just a convenient excuse for unprofessionalism and not fancying games. Tried to wriggle out of it but finally someone has seen through one of these 'covid crisis' situations and taken the points off them.'"
Maybe Powell and Cas have pulled a master stroke here, so that Saint's dont get a dress rehearsal of the cup final, which is only a few weeks away and perhaps they have a few surprises in store for you on the day  |

This is the that i'm not looking forward to with powell coming to warrington, i hate this constant repetition of 'we've got injuries' which has been going for about 4 years now. as much as people dont like warrington for various reasons, we never make excuses over this, last week, we had a large chunk of players missing for the england game, we didn't get it moved cos we know theres more fixtures coming, just suck it up and play it.
Last year when we had 7/8 out cos of covid at the last minute, we didn't ask for games to get put off, whacked some academy kids in and sucked it up and played the 3 games that were affected.
I'm hoping that one of the first things powell gets told on day one is, no excuses bull like this.

Wakefield had 14 players missing at point last year and still fielded a team. Cas, Hudds, Leeds, Rovers are an embarrassment in this regard.

Powel and Cas suggest that they have injuries and covid issues right through their squad from First team ight down into their academy sides.
I know that we are in unprecedented times but, you would have thought they could muster 17 players.
He (Powell) is probably working on a bit of siege mentality to try and glean that extra few percent for the Cup Final.
My club Trinity have been plagued by injuries for the last couple of seasons, especially last year and yet, managed to complete the highest number of fixtures of any SL club last season, granted we didn't win many but, at least we had a team on the park.
I would gamble that Powell is "happy" to have this one postponed. |

So lets get this right, teams following COVID rulings regarding closing training grounds, self isolation and testing are an embarrassment. Are you any relation to Matt Hancock |

Your not going to get a medal for the team that completes most games though are you. When and if the current percentage rules are abandoned and we get back to the old 2 points for a win scenario Trinity's fantastic gesture of playing all games at all costs will be long forgotten. |

Cas have lost 24-0 because they can’t raise a team. If this had been down to Covid they wouldn’t have lost 24-0.
Plain and simple they can’t raise a team because they are a tin pot club in a tin pot league. |

Where have you been Wilzay ?
Both football and RU have lost fixtures due to covid issues.
Mind you, in Union, the club that cant raise a side suffer a 24 - 0 reverse, regardless of whether it's injuries or covid.
Maybe League should follow their example ? |
