Well with legal action not being possible as you'll dead I suppose the only action you can take is to come back and haunt them

Stop trying to an internet Einstein mate. It's obvious from Italy's data that the health system will be completely overloaded.

no, it is obvious YOU haven't bothered to educate your own opinion, like so many.

I am no epidemiologist, never claimed to be, [ibut[/i I am capable of trying to increase my understanding. And I am not your "mate".
Enjoy your Saturday evening.

Ok.

There's a time and place for trying to score 'brownie points' over one another., this isn't one of them. Some folk would still got to a RL game if they could, and others wouldn't until the virus had virtually disappeared. I'm bored 'out of my tree' in the evenings & weekends, but it is what it is right now. Am I going visiting My 80 years old Mum tomorrow, not a chance. If I was young, and my Mum was only in her 40's, maybe I would have done so. Lets just do as we are being told to for the next few weeks and see what happens. Although obviously it's going to be a few months before we can have some normality in this country.

Well said Budge.

very decent post that buddy

TBH anyone claiming that this is being blown out of all proportion, won't accept what is being written in the press, thinks (almost) all the governments of the world are overreacting, that the medics being interviewed about the situation in Italy are lying needs treating with either contempt or pity.

Then again maybe he's the absolute world expect on viral diseases and their spread but I doubt it.

I know curry is a troll and WUM but you have no regards for other people's lives how selfish can you be, not only the delay in getting this virus sorted it's effecting every person in their pockets I've lost about 20k off the value of my pension in wish I'll need within 6 yrs and I never make that back

Stop trying to make it out to be nothing but a bit of flu

The real problem is how to restart the league. The UK may choose to go ahead with game behind closed doors or normal support in the next 4 weeks, but if France or more likely Canada is still in severe lockdown, we can't, adding to a longer delay. I realise that this is a unique situation, but this highlights a real issue with having non-UK teams in the league. We might be ready to get going and get revenue into the game but might be blocked by several more weeks.

In the extremely unlikely event that games are able to be played in the UK at some point relatively soon, but France and Canada have restrictions, then Catalans and Toronto will have to just play their "home" games over here. I'm booked for Toronto away in July and don't for one second expect to be going, and nor do I really expect any professional rugby league game to be played in 2020. At least not with a crowd. The only way I see it as even marginally possible is if there's a significantly shortened season played out much later in the year, that then enables a top four (1 V 4, 2 V 3, Grand Final) play off series to be held once crowds are able to return.

No Challenge Cup games or internationals.
