Hope all who have tested positive are not badly affected, similarly their families.

Sounds like Super League were only testing once a week?

A big well done to the idiot (or idiots) who broke the guidelines/protocol.

Jumping to conclusions there, Phil. You've no idea how it has been transmitted.

Lost for words how crazy this year has been.

Hope the players, their families, the Salford team, and everyone they may have bumped into are safe.

Could be very bad news for the game though, we are a contact sport and if we are seen as a risk they'll shut us down.

If one player has it they'll be transmitting it through contact training and on matchday surely?

Im not a scientist but from what I understand you can show symtoms anytime from 2-14 days so infection could have occured pretty much anywhere. Super League announced on Friday tests were negative across the league.

Im not aware any of the squad werent picked on Sunday due to fitness, not even say muscles were aching a bit (one symtom) Taylor has a physical injury but as far as im aware we beleived everyone else was fit.

You’re right I’m largely guessing but someone has obviously been within two metres of someone else who’s had the virus. With the way players at plenty of clubs are willingly going out to bars and football stadiums with thousands celebrating I can bet someone’s been out on the p*ss. There’ll be plenty of more positive cases until clubs and the RFL take a much tougher stance and issue big fines to players responsible. It shouldn’t be hard for players to follow guidelines and steer clear of social events for three months.

surely Sundays game is off, from a competition point of view we are 6 players down, and if I was a Cas player or coach or the Ref I wouldent want to be anywhere near the FC squad that soon.
