I agree with your general post, but not sure quite who this bit is aimed at.
No club played more league games than Wakefield, for example.
A team further East ducked all the top teams away from home.

Ah yes, one extra, but I was thinking in response to the "Yorkshire" aspect of the comment.
I mean, one club played as few as 20 games...

| Wigan also had to re-schedule games that were cancelled whilst some clubs were awarded a 24-0 win.
There was a period where we played around 5 straight games against sides who hadn't played for 2 weeks.

I hope new rules are introduced to say only he player who tests positive for Covid, has to stand down, and not the rest of the squad/bubble if they test negative. There was the case of several Trinity players testing Covid negative, having to stand down because that one player who tested positive, was sat near those players on the Plane for the Catalans match.

It's tough to manage I guess, but if all players are double jabbed then a negative test should mean they can play.
I would be expected to come to work with a negative test.

| Not peculiar to SL. Sheffield had, shall we say, an intriguing way of working out which games to re-arrange and which to not bother.

I agree, but even my team Leigh (whipping boys) had games v Warrington, Hull & Castleford called off by our opponents.

| This needs to be done.
The amount of games getting called off was ridiculous.
Other team sports never seemed to have so much disruption.
It should have been from the start anyone testing negative was fit to play

| Retired NRL player Cameron Smith commenting on the only 15 players still to be vaccinated in the NRL. 'Get jabbed or get another job'. Fair view IMHO and one the SL/RFL should follow.

Being double jabbed doesn’t stop you getting Covid, therefore why not just have players having a test, negative you play positive you don’t play, keeps everyone happy.
