Have you seen what the nba has done? its moved 22 teams to Disney world/land in florida, without families in order for them to finish their season in fully enclosed bubble.

I don't think SL clubs could afford to pay their players to stay in Camelot, nevermind anywhere else!

I presume you're suggesting the same would apply to anybody in employment?

Why should Super league players, many of whom are not well paid, make multiple more times sacrifices in respect to Covid as the rest of society.

I doubt you have any idea about the restrictions that are in place anyway. The fact no positive tests for Salford players suggests that the RFL's precautions worked well in preventing spread beyond the Hull bubble.

The report in the Warrington Guardian suggests that the source of the outbreak was a player needing to take their baby to hospital.

Getting very close to the season being scuppered in my view.

Stupidity of some players matches the stupidity of some of the general public with respect to adhering to the national guidelines.

Will they ever learn?

Ha ha ha ha ha this Made me laugh so much

So you have no problem with Blake Austin going to Anfield partying with thousands of supporters during lockdown? The club disagree.

Lets get real here, I'm not asking players to give up their families or donate their organs. I'm simply suggesting they use a bit of common sense and make small sacrifices such as maybe not going on the ale with their mates or going to football stadiums and celebrating title wins.

Would be great if you could enlighten me on these restrictions. Given I don't work for the RFL or a SL club you'd be absolutely right to say I do not know what restrictions are in place but given that we have had 6 positive tests after week one it would be fair to say that these 'restrictions' aren't looking particularly serviceable to me.

According to our owner Adam Pearson, in his considered opinion, this particular outbreak could be the result of one of our players taking his new born baby to hospital, and returning to training after this event, which has subsequently triggered the contagion, he didn’t say which player or which hospital, although not proven, he seems to think this is probably what happened. Said player was not due to play in the game against Salford.

My view is that the players comply with same guidelines that apply to us all, when in public or in our workplace. So no I don't agree with what Austin did but what would you expect from a firework firing red-nose.

You have seemed to have moved from their families not even be allowed to go shopping to now just requiring common sense. Quite a shift in one page, about as consistent as government messaging around trips to Barnard Castle. It's good to see that Hull are also playing "responsible parenting" card. Not knowing the circumstances of the hospital visit or the like but it may have been sensible for that player to self-isolate after his trip.

That is right in terms of SL players should not be expected to have some social duty over and above the rest of society to do their bit for public health.

But from the club's perspective they have a duty to make sacrifices over and above the rest of society, to keep covid out of the dressing room so that we can put 17 fit players out every week and maximise our chances of winning the SL title. They already make sacrifices over and above the rest of society for this reason. They don't have the freedom to go for 6 pints and a greasy kebab like many of their peers in other jobs would after clocking off a shift, because that would reduce our chances of winning RL games. With covid, individual behaviour can put the whole dressing room at risk and disrupt the coaching staff's ability to prepare for a game, if they have to have other players isolating or ruled out.

What if we go on a winning run and look well set for the playoffs then a covid bout near the end of the season messes us up and we lose 4 on the spin and its season over. We can't remove these risks altogether, but players should do everything they can to limit the risk through their behaviour. Same as you can't remove the risk of a player getting a freak injury on the field but we expect them to ensure they are as well conditioned as possible to reduce the risk.

I wasn't specifically referring to the Hull players, but it may be appropriate. We'll have to wait and see. But subsequent posts referred to players from other clubs - all of whom should know better. Let's hope everyone recovers ok and test results for those who have been tested come back negative.
