That's the difference between a professionally run organisation and the English RFL!tigerfeat wrote: ↑18 Mar 2020, 09:44 I listened to Todd Greenberg head of the NRL yesterday he said everything should be done to keep going making sure all the players were clear to play and ready to keep playing which he had the full backing of all the players and clubs in
Playing behind closed doors and extending the season even if it meant delaying the start of the following season but one thing he made clear the season would be completed without losing fixtures

Re: Rugby league to suspend season.
Over 2,500 people in Italy have died from this and yesterday the government said if they keep the death toll below 20,000 in this country it will be a success
But yeah nothing to panic about - unless of course you're totally selfish
you may not be old or have underlying health risks but you could transmit to somebody who could - still as long as you're ok eh?
I don't have a favourite second team - it's Cas 100% for me
Re: Rugby league to suspend season.
Thing s can soon get out of hand. I work at a supermarket and it's completely crazy. People just buying everything haven't time to replenish stock before it's gone again. Like locust's devouring everything in their path. Making more people suffer needlessly through greed.
Re: Rugby league to suspend season.
That's the point I made earlier in the week God help us if everybody had had that mentality between 1939 -1945 and for the nearly ten years rationing that followed those yearsPiquad1 wrote: ↑18 Mar 2020, 12:16 Thing s can soon get out of hand.

I would never conform to the "nothing" beleif but I do believe people are panicking unnecessarily.Kenilworth Tiger wrote: ↑18 Mar 2020, 12:07Over 2,500 people in Italy have died from this and yesterday the government said if they keep the death toll below 20,000 in this country it will be a success

I am in the high risk category and because of this I am ensuring I follow the guidlines to reduce the possiblity of me catching it.
However, I do not believe everyone needs to lock themselves away and reduce society to being meaningless. For most folk it will just seem like a csae of the flu, which doesn't bring mass hysteria. Protecting the vulnerable is the way forward and let the rest of you get on with life.

Re: Rugby league to suspend season.
My concern is the wait for a vaccine of some kind; I understand the "flattening the curve" idea, however if you're going to put a nation into lockdown, then they're going to have to stay there until there's a vaccine and you can begin to inoculate people against the disease. Otherwise, we're just delaying the inevitable... I just hope they develop something effective soon - people won't stay cooped up for ever.
Re: Rugby league to suspend season.
8-[ It's catch 22 do you or don't you isolate. I believe you should but will everyone. To be honest it's a scary scenario. I found out today that my Doctor's surgery is closed because some staff and doctors came down with symptoms. I know it sounds a bit drastic but I think the armed forces medical crews got on board to ease pressure on hospitals. Like that programme Mash start erecting tents and medial units to try to eliviate some pressure. I know it sounds daft but Christ people are dropping like flies.
Re: Rugby league to suspend season.
And as for the spaces to erect these medical units look at all the empty sports grounds with facilities that could be used. And revenue from the government to keep them operational. Might be a stupid post but I thought I would throw it out there because I personally can't see much else happening apart from throwing money at it.

Problem with vaccines is the development legislation, which if followed takes a number of years before one is adopted.Burratha wrote: ↑18 Mar 2020, 16:29 My concern is the wait for a vaccine of some kind; I understand the "flattening the curve" idea, however if you're going to put a nation into lockdown, then they're going to have to stay there until there's a vaccine and you can begin to inoculate people against the disease.

Should they bypass the legal route and take risks?

Re: Rugby league to suspend season.
i think its been introduced on purpose to wipe out us over 70's which will solve the "care home crisis" and the pension shortfall, and they won't have to give out the free TV licences.

Re: Rugby league to suspend season.
Of course there isn't!
It's probably going to cost the country 100s of billions before things are sorted, which by far outweighs some pension and care costs savings.
In addition, why are the government emphasising and supporting the isolation of the sick and vulnerable.
Can't believe people peddle such drivel.
MY CLUB. MY CAS
