Have Hudds gone into isolation as they played Toronto last Wednesday?

The few fans that turned up were well over the advisory 2 metres apart, there was only 3 in each stand

If you can pay for testing maybe they should test the players and if negative then it should be played.

At £800 per test it would cost more to test the 21 - £16,800 - and thats not including support staff, than it would probably make in gate receipts!

TORONTO WOLFPACK

STATEMENT FROM TORONTO WOLFPACK ON BEHALF OF BRIAN MCDERMOTT

Today, we have advised four of our players who have experienced mild possible symptoms of COVID-19 to self Isolate in accordance with the guidelines set by the UK government. We take this very seriously and as a precaution, we have stood down our entire playing staff in the UK.

We train in an environment where we interact with students and members of the public and we vehemently do not want to act as a possible vector for COVID-19 which is why we have taken this immediate action. The health and welfare of our players, staff, fans and partners is always our primary concern. Our main goal is to prevent any further spread to our playing squad and their immediate family members, therefore we are now postponing all practice and have tasked our squad with keeping themselves healthy.

We will continue to monitor this while providing updates to our League's governors and wait for a directive from them.

Who’d have thought
