| Quote Budgiezilla="Budgiezilla"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.'" 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

Which flies in the face of social distancing to the extreme, surely?
Germany has banned "groups" of more than 2, but the RFL are suggesting "groups" of 14 (a scrum), the PL are talking about resuming for TV before the situation is over.

| 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.

Or it could well be the other way around

Not sure why you think that this government and it will be them and not SL that decide when to lift restrictions, why you think we might be ready before France or Canada.

France may be ready before us, but Canada probably after us.
The point is, having a single league split across multiple countries potentially adds further delay/complication as opposed to all members being from the same country. How would all the other clubs feel if 11 clubs are ready to get going but can't for several more weeks just because one club is based in a country still quarantined?
