Fifita does not have the virus and remained in the bubble. His crime was to remove his GPS I am sure Kay doesn’t have the virus but must have been around someone who has within his family. To be technical his action could have put more team members at risk than Fifita, hence my question why an indefinite period for one when his offence one presumes would be 14 days isolation and not the other.
It is the ambiguity I question, if you know why please enlighten us. I wonder if Fifita’s salary is reduced or stopped during a breach like this.
On the subject of transfer fees why should we not demand one Castleford did for Gale and St Helens did for Richardson, so not quite so rare when it comes to what a club would consider to be a major part of their team.
Great that you are 'sure' and that you know what 'must have' happened but the reality is we have certain guidelines to follow as a sport to make sure we are allowed to continue as a sport.
It's not just about catching the virus, which is a terrible thing in itself, and the GPS procedure is designed to protect the team and extended family, it is also about keeping the team and sport going. It's irresponsible to go your own way.
It shows lack of respect to his team mates, the club and the sport.
