It looks as though the french government are going to ban it citizens from traveling further than sixty miles from their homes this summer. Foreign travel will be banned, except in exceptional circumstances. Where does that leave Super League and the Championship, with regards to Toulouse and Catalan?

Manna from heaven for those clubs that would prefer non traditional heartland clubs didn't exist.

Perhaps a few months of tag rugby would be an easier way of getting the season going again. Probably giving a faster game with no full on contact & it would allow players to wear masks for safety reasons.

There is more than a little merit in that.

Would sit nicely with our defence so far this season!

International travel is allowed for work purposes, I have had several clients who have travelled from Paris.bordeaux and nice in the last couple of weeks
So if playing is classed as work they would have no problems travelling.

Obviously never played tag if you think that

I have no problem with good refs. I watch amateur RU and those refs are pretty good in comparison to a lot of RL refs. Maybe because they don't seem to be out to get noticed.

Or maybe ru refs spending too much time working out what the next scrummaging penalty can be for.
