Bound to happen at some time, will see this escalate quickly. Makes me wonder what’s going to happen when backlog becomes huge?

Scrap the loop fixtures I reckon, but there will be a huge backlog I could see the league suspended for 2 months or more

RFL talking about sanctions because Leeds refused to fly, what were they expected to do?

"I'm sorry, but I would hope that we would beat Cas with a 1 day turnaround."

An arrogant Wigan fan a few days before we stuffed them 18-4 at the JJB.

Suspect that would be a big legal no no. Or at least Leeds should go that way in the event.

Its a wise precaution by Leeds, sometimes you have to make the right call even though it might hurt.

Wider implications may vary - without knowing exactly who the player is and which other teams he or she has come into contact with in the last 2 weeks
then it is difficult to know what the repercussions of this will be.
Best case scenario is it is a player who hasn't played the last two weeks and it is only the Leeds squad who is effected.
Worst case he has played against 2 other teams, it has then got out of control - but could also have got out of control in the first scenario, this is the way with these virus's

For me the league should take proactive steps to understand the spread at this time
Check each squad player for the virus and any squad that is effected should be stood down from games for the next 2 rounds
Immediately suspend all games at anything other than first team level

Those two steps will allow the max number of games to go ahead.

They should repeat the testing on a weekly basis to confirm still clear or now clear

It couldn't be too much of an issue as each club has medical staff and testing 30 players each it could be done in a day

Club Dr has said testing is a complicated option.

If this virus gets into just one player in an RL team it'll go right through the game.

I guess we assume that these professional sportsmen won't be effected but they can certainly catch bugs with the best of us. I wouldn't bet against one or two become poorly with it either - being fit is obviously a plus factor but we simply don't know for sure.

Hard to see how matches can go ahead when players are such transmission candidates to other players and the wider public.

I can see the season being postponed here, just getting that out there.

Fans might need to bail out clubs to get them through, some only survive on gate receipts.

Comment by Him , Leeds supporter on March 10:Some utter whinging nonsense spouted from Catalans in their statement.

Why should Leeds take a big financial hit or further congest their own fixture list when the game can still be played? There is also no mention from Catalans as to what contribution Catalans would make towards Leeds costs for a rescheduled game that would never make a profit.

Catalans say they had a similar issue with Wakefield, they didn’t. That game couldn’t go ahead. This one can.

So what's the difference?
