nadera78 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Toulouse have to pay for PCR tests for other clubs? That's not fair. "Just as we had been Cathars, we were treizistes, men apart."

I expect it’s additional costs outside of the usual covid protocols. Is it fair London have to fund unexpected cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleD Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Seems like a reasoned compromise, although I feel sorry for Toulouse..........foreign teams always seem to get the rough end of things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manfred Mann Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Toulouse have the strongest team in the Championship. If they are denied promotion to Super League at season’s end because of Covid arrangements then it is a scandal. The RFL needs to bend the rules in favor of Toulouse should Toulouse achieve the crucial criterion of highest percentage of wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Same with how Catalans had to play all their games here and got no help with the private flights they had to charter to get here. It’s shameful, all the teams should pay their share of the additional cost for the French teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think more than a few Fev fans might disagree with you on Toulouse having the strongest team. Certainly not a clear cut affair. Ultimately, there is no way to keep things completely fair with Covid. There will be teams in every division that are going to get the rough end of the stick, either through the points %, uneven fixture list or track and trace stand downs.

Hela Wigmen Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 So Toulouse are potentially going to play at home once all year then? Besides themselves and London, no one else is full-time, so they may have just the one home game. It’s not ideal and I’m not sure what could be done that’s a positive resolution for all parties but Toulouse, like Catalans last year and probably this year too, are going to have to do things the hard way.
