Which is what Union have been doing and what should have happened in some other weeks. Stops all this confusing chopping and changing and might make some players take it more seriously.
Also needs looking at why so many RL players are catching it compared to Football and Union. Location is one factor (but Football has clubs in high risk areas too) as is that our players aren't millionaires so live and shop in more 'normal' places and aren't hiding in gated mansions...but every week RL has many cases. Are our rules and procedures strict enough?

I think regarding the Salford v Warrington game, the forfeit has been made under the RL rules of not being able to raise a team, not sure but on this occasion no Covid excuse, just lack of troops.
As you rightly state, our players are not rich or privileged enough to follow safety isolation protocols set out in the NRL for example. Our lads wives and girlfriends must work, a lot of them in the NHS, there are the issues of the North South divide, and the high rate of infections in the Northern areas especially, and the areas of poverty and high unemployment.
The RFL & Super League have bumbled and limped their way home, usually on the hoof, in very difficult circumstances, mistakes have been made, this virus has tested mankind,

| Think this will be the last weekend, if that's the case it has to be a 6 team play off, as all of these teams could still make the top 4.
3 vs 6
4 vs 5
1 and 2 get a bye.

If Sky allow it Dave, we should stop now, no one can deny the efforts of all clubs to complete in terrible circumstances. Begin the playoffs at the first available chance, then end this miserable season ASAP.

Yes I agree, but its fine to Sky.
Although I'm struggled to have too much sympathy with Salfird, they neglected great academy for a few years, if they didnt they could play with so players out, like Wigan, Saints and Leeds have done recently.

I see the Premier League has an exemption, so will continue behind closed doors.
Grassroots sports in general are not exempted.
I've haven't found anything concerning Super League yet, but the RFL had this on their twitter account...

Not very friendly.

| Quote: "Premier League football and other elite sports will be allowed to continue during a five-week 'circuit break' lockdown which will start in England on Thursday.
They can continue due to the testing regimes in place for professional sportspeople, but amateur sports will be put on hold.
The EFL, women's football down to reserve level, and the National League, are all classified as elite sport and are permitted to continue behind closed doors.'"
Are we classed as an elite sport? Sounds like the second sentence covers us.

| Leeds will win tonight, Wakey have a weak squad out.
I dont think it will matter, think these are the last regualary games, dates and stadiums havent even been decided for our last two games have they?
If they do cut the season, it should include the teams who still have a chance of the current play off system which would be the top 6.
Other option is to go with the top 10, keep it to the SL standard teams.

Leeds have players missing as well (nb. it's a 14:00 KO.)
I see Catalans have been cleared to play Salford tomorrow night.

Just looked at the Wakey squad and it's not as bad as I first though. Shame the game isn't on TV.
Tomorrows game will put Catalans at 13, am I being cynical or are they picking their games, cancelled against inform Hull and Warrington, but play against massively weakened Salford.

| ... Catalans were put in total shutdown (Stage 2 of the Multiple Cases Framework) due to loads of positive Covids, hence the game cancellations.

| Leeds looked like we did after winning the cup, against Wakey they looked shot.
