Sounds like a few out for covid protocols for the game, which is interesting as according to Rovers fans we cheated the system to avoid bottom club Leigh and world champions elect Rovers.

Obviously for Rovers 3 games against the top 2 and us (all sides above them) which they cancelled, that was different and all above board.

"Tony Smith says Hull KR would be open to playing Leigh Centurions this week if Thursday’s derby is called off for a second time.

“We’ll do whatever is necessary to get this competition completed in the best way possible, keeping in mind player welfare issues.

“We’ll do whatever is practical to get the maximum number of games completed.”

You're not eligible for the playoffs if you don't play enough games, maybe you can't be relegated (Leigh) if you don't play enough games.

According to Brett Hodgson in the Yorkshire Post you can only rearrange a game in the order they were postponed which is potentially good news for us, not so much for our neighbours.

I read somewhere that whenever possible, games should be rearranged in the order they were postponed.

How have we taken the mickey out of the system, like you have put on the Rovers forum?

Wait, what? They slithered out of playing Saints and Catalans but we are bending the rules to avoid Leigh and Rovers? Jesus Christ the Ben Cockayne conspiracy theory paranoia is institutionalised

Derby was our first game cancelled.

But not for rovers...they have to get in Catalan or saints before us

Leigh was our first game postponed, followed by Rovers

Salford game was cancelled on 5/7 then Leigh 11/7 then the Derby on 15/7?
