You regret the decision? Where did your opinion come into the equation? Have you any input into Warrington's decision to play the forthcoming fixture v Hull despite having to stand 6 players down following our game?

| Yes I do because I thought it was a risk and unnecessary because no other team at that time had done so. I bet Warrington had wished the game was called off. The result albeit not surprising still feeds into the belief that we are a team in decline. We could have waited and got the isolating players back and maybe some carrying injuries. What we now face are matches where the results can be decided based on if a club is quarantining players and the numbers involved, rather than a level playing field. I understand that injuries also play a part but adding quarantining players will weaken a team further.
The last time I checked this was a forum for debate not blind obedience like you appear to follow.

| On Twitter, Aaron Bower summarises the current situation:
"Priorities for rugby league in 2020:
1. Finishing the season however possible and fulfilling broadcast obligations.
2. Everything else.
I get fans want their team to win, but if we want to have a sport to watch next year, we have to finish this season by any means possible."

Its not a level playing field anyway.
Have you then not heard of the salary cap and the clubs ability of spending a certain % of it...????

We already have 3 players unable to play due to contact with covid carriers plus loads of injuries. The game is already an unfair contest and why are we always playing at the other teams ground ?'"
I agree its wrong but Hull played Salford at the weekend without having had a single training session together for the previous 14 days. Its a farce, but a necessary farce.

| What about a series of advertisements for the sale of season tickets and merchandise.

| Well I think we did pretty well retaining numbers for 2016 from 2015 and that was without a killer virus.
