Personally, I think you are all in the wrong, but like I said, if you want to put yourself and anybody else you meet in future at further risk than need be, then go ahead and fill your boots - I'm not desperate enough that I can't go a few weeks without going to the pub for a pint.

Anybody who is, is basically the modern day equivalent of the fella sat in a small room of people puffing away on his ciggy, putting all at risk just so he can enjoy his life pleasures.

When was the last time you were allowed in a pub..are you aware smoking is banned inside you have to enjoy your ciggy outside..

For all of who are knowledgeable about financial affairs , are Rugby/ Super League clubs in the pot for some of the government assistance to businesses that was announced yesterday?

Has AS108 disappeared for a while as they've mutated into Covid19?

If non of a club's players have any signs of the disease, what about playing behind closed doors and televised on sky.
No stewarding or policing costs, sky get to screen games. They could be spread over Thursday, Friday evenings and weekend afternoons, showing all games.

No gate receipts = the end for most clubs.

Franchise RL is the future. Your traditional sides will fold at a steady rate in the coming year.

They already have gate receipts from the 8000 or so season ticket holders.. May as well get some sky money and get the fixtures out of the way

True. However, there are also monies from other match day incomes not coming into the club.

Also, throw in that most clubs will probably have to look to reimburse supporters through a discount for the 2021 season and you can see they are going to have a hole in their already fragile budgets.
