You're living in cloud cuckoo land if you think it's as simple as that.

No one will make the decision to allow unrestricted access to stadia in the near future.

Worldwide confirmed cases of Covid today is at an all time high (307,930).

Rimmer reckons RL in general is currently losing £2m income a week, it's not going to get any easier some time soon, and that money is pretty much gone for ever.

If you're like Wigan, with a recent £2.5m cash injection, then life may not be quite so difficult.

The rest of us are tottering on the brink. My humble opinion of course.



And don't forget Sky is reducing next year's payments by £250k (2 or 3 top class players).

Ever tried looking in the mirror, you're the worst of the lot.

... or maybe it was the kick in the pants he needed, just another viewpoint of course.

I was talking about next season and someone will have to make a decision about getting unrestricted access into Sports stadiums for 2021

Covid is really getting overblown now.Very few hospital cases and deaths.

We have to stop been afraid of it and get on with our lives like they are in Sweden

Sweden (a country with 55m fewer people, and twice the size of the uk) still has plenty of restrictions in place, I don't recollect them allowing unrestricted access to stadia, but I could be wrong.



Anyway, as long as Albert goes back to the NRL, we'll all give a sigh of relief.



=#FF0000EDIT:







but not to worry.

What if Radford said to Kelly that Connor, who we know received counselling in the off season, would benefit from a "vote of confidence" awarding of a lower squad number, but that the squad would be picked purely in form? As the senior player you'd take that for the greater good wouldn't you? A hypothetical scenario but no less hypothetical than others put forward repeatedly with no evidence or substance.







I agree and I would love to keep Kelly. But the reality is that Connor is contracted and Kelly isn't, and bonaire suggests they can't both happily coexist in the squad. He knows Kelly is expensive but berates the club's lack of ambition in a financially challenging environment. He knows Connor has great potential as a GB international and time on his side. So given his repeated trotting out of the shirt story I don't think it's unreasonable to ask what he would do. Otherwise whatever the club do can be portrayed negatively later on. Should have kept Kelly and cashed in on Connor if Kelly leaves. Should have kept Connor and binned expensive Kelly when Kelly's knee goes and Connor plays for GB at Leeds.

I think he has 'thing' for Mrs B

Like a moth to a flame. Understandable.

Wonder if the club are following the old saying “better let them leave a year too early rather than a year too late “?

He's only 29.

If it were me I'd chuck money at Kelly - I've enjoyed watching him more than any other player as he can create stuff from absolutely nothing. Gutted that he's going.

Thinking injury wise more than anything. Think the way he plays doesn’t do him any favours.

Best No. 6 I’ve seen in black and white.

Best number 14 too.
