It's tough to manage I guess, but if all players are double jabbed then a negative test should mean they can play.

I would be expected to come to work with a negative test.


Not tough for me - you explain how simple and fair that is................

Being double jabbed doesn’t stop you getting Covid, therefore why not just have players having a test, negative you play positive you don’t play, keeps everyone happy.

I did say "and a negative test" but yes you're right. That is exactly how it should be.

I’d expect the league to follow the current government regulations.

Player X tests positive - Player X isolates for 10 days.

Any players/staff in contact don’t isolate if they have been double jabbed & do if they haven’t.

Agree with it or not that is the current government stance. It should lead to far fewer players isolating therefore a significant reduction in games that have to be postponed.

The point is, being double jabbed, does not stop you from getting Covid, therefore a double jabbed player could pass on Covid, so just test the players. Positive test then isolate, negative then play.

Correct again. I wonder how many times you will have to repeat yourself? :)

The problem was firstly the bubble had to isolate and also the rules made it easy to do around 80% of the cancelled games could have been played just not with the ideal starting 17 and it would possibly result in a loss

but the rules at the time wouldn't allow it. Huddersfield were prepared to fulfil their away fixture at wigan by playing academy players who had no game but because 7 players had tested positive the RFL wouldn't allow it.
Huddersfield then fulfilled a game with just 17 players named, with 5 called up on international duty, just after the club had had to close their training ground on rfl orders. Others ruled out due to 7 day covid protocol, and one player who returned having lost 8kg - but they played and unlike e.g. Saint Helens didn't prevent their best players being selected for international duty.
The RFL later then fined Huddersfield when they had one fewer than the number required to postpone, whilst having 10 other players out injured or suspended and the RFL expected the academy lads to double up and play after they had had just played their own fixture. Just goes to show the RFL don't give a fig for player welfare and it didn't pay to be honest. and some clubs weren't.
