| Not sure how many Hull fans have long journeys ahead of them to get to the game but however many, they will be in the vast minority. Like I say a difficult decision to make, but do the Clubs call the game a game off when the pitch and surrounds have been passed fit and the vast majority of the support can attend and if not they can watch the game live on TV.
People have already travelled through form West Yorkshire to the game without a problem but realise that coming over the Pennines is a difficulty.

| If 12k+ passholders (and others) can be excluded from attending a SuperLeague game by playing it on the other side of the world, then I guess nobody will worry too much about a few Warrington supporters.

| Quote the artist="the artist"so the game goes ahead as long as the teams can make it - as usual the fans come a distant last. exactly the same as when we get messed around with games being rearranged for tv halfway through the season. warrington fans can get to the game on train but not back. people's game my a**e - the game should be called off'"
totally agree the game should be postponed in line with the other fixtures.
How can you expect players to perform in a ball handling sport when the temperature with wind chill is expected to be -8 degrees.
Just dont see any advantage to the club playing this game and cold temperatures always produce more groin and hamstring injuries.
Small crowd now its on Sky.I have a feeling the club will regret this decision.

| If it weren't for sky the game would have been cancelled. No thought for the players or speccies. Poor decision but he who pays the piper calls the tune as they say

The stadium is an enclosed bowl, what kind of winds do you expect at ground level?
I mean players have managed to play good rugby and be safe in far worse conditions and not even that long ago never mind when it was winter rugby. I don't remember any players getting hypothermia back then ... unless you are stood still and not doing your job properly.
thoughts of the game being PPd for the sake of a minority fans is utterly ridiculous, player welfare is not an issue in this situation otherwise the officials would call it off already, simple as that.

I do, Des Hasler - came out second half in a wet suit iirc and he ended up in hospital with hyperthermia.

| Bit of googling....
"TWO rugby players from New Zealand collapsed on the pitch one minute from the end of a match yesterday suffering from hypothermia."
Plenty to choose from.

| *UPDATE* #M62 remains closed e/bound J20-J22 + w/bound J24-J21 due to strong winds + on-going work to clear the remaining stranded HGVs. #A66, #A628, main cross-country routes are also closed. M62 = likely to remain closed until at least this evening, gusts of 80mph just recorded.
