So the farce has started again. May aswell call this season off and go again next year...
This comp is a joke now......

Go have a lie down Shabino.

It has to be a parody account.

Completely over the top comment.

While this is in no way a good thing if you were to pick any 2 games to get called off it’d be Saints and Catalans away. We then have 2 easy wins against Salford and Leigh to take us to the 50% win ratio mark.

Are you suggesting we planned this......... Lol.....

No, I’m just looking at the situation we are presented with and looking for the positives in it.

Was looking forward to this one. Would have really shown us where we're are at. Forwards battle would have been good. Backs not so. Hope all players are OK

A reminder that we are not quite out of the woods yet with COVID. It's worth bearing in mind how badly effected Rhyse Martin was (and has continued to be). Dwyer had it bad as well last year. Being an elite sportsman doesn't mean you will just sail through this virus; it's very individual.

Aren't all players vaccinated anyway? You would think in order to keep sports going there would be some priority there, not just in RL.

No priority for sportsmen.

Game is definately off.

Now they've lowered the age range they will be vaccinated very shortly and hopefully this situation won't happen again. Agree with the above Jim, it shows it's on the rise again as well. Thankfully millions have been vaccinated so the impact won't be as much but still there's several million not yet had one jab and many more millions not had their second.

Not getting political here but the Gov have let this new variant into this country through air travel just as we were unlocking... shambles.

Have we got official conformation, the only place ive seen this is on Rugby League ITK twitter feed and as we know from recent tweets he's rather unreliable

It will be officially announced shortly but its definately off.

Cheers

Gutted but nothing we can do, hopefully with vaccinations of the lower age brackets this will be the last we see of these type of cancellations.

Will be interesting to see if the get cancelled or just postponed.

Well that’s resolved one issue for me, I go away with my wife for my 40th this weekend and I don’t think she’d bargained for me watching rugby.

She will have Seth im sure of it. Happy 40th kid.

Many happy returns Seth

in a way it's better it's off as i'd assume we'd have had bare bones of a squad if it went ahead. interesting to see how many players this has effected..

Happy 40th Seth!

Seems to be taking a long time to officially announce it’s off? Let’s hope it’s a just a postponement as opposed to a forfeit situation as happened to a club(s) last season for COVID breaches??

There won't be a forfeit, that's why they decided to use the win percentage again this season.

Postponed. Now confirmed. Gutted. Havent been to Headingley in over 460 days.

I too am gutted but had I of chosen a time for us to be affected in two games, it would be these two as they are the form teams.

Catalans likely to be rearranged for the cc final weekend I would think.

Will any be rearranged or will win percentage come into play and the games dont take place? I thought thats why the win percentage was maintained.
