Scarlets player tested positive Monday, with self-isolation, Bath are unable to field a safe front row, so match against La Rochelle cancelled

https://www.bathrugby.com/club-news/clu ... cancelled/


I haven't spotted whether or not Scarlets themselves can put a team put

Should they have bothered playing this tournament (it might have been needed money wise). A year off focusing on domestic competitions would have refreshed it all for next year.

Scarlets v Toulon looks like being called off now. Never made sense that Bath had 12 players isolating after playing Scarlets and couldn’t put out a team, yet Scarlets were supposedly relatively unaffected.

Anyway, tournament is becoming farcical now.

I mean, they absolutely shouldn't, nor should we have bothered finishing the 19-20 full league season. However, they have contracts and TV obligations, and not doing so would've cost money, so flogging the players and putting out the youth teams it is!

A fine example of public health being the ginger step child of society.

Glasgow are to make an official complaint to the EPCR about alleged breaches of covid protocols by Exeter during the match.

More embarrassing bull shit.

Yeah, it doesn't look good does it. Along with Nowell's comments before, you get the feeling there's a culture issue there. And taking Baxters comments in too, it looks like it's from the top.

Plus sticking their fingers in their ears about all the branding stuff.

Also a fine example of singling out step children and ginger children as you might be frowned on for other discriminatory reasons.

More embarrassing bollocks. What are they playing at? Click the image to enlarge it.

That is some batshit crazy talk there.

Could it not just be that he’s just found out Watson actually does play fullback for Bath?

They're starting to make a team who did some shady deals looking after their players so they'd be ok post rugby look good with stupid views and posts like this.

The number of people willing to go to bat with the claim any loss of points for Exeter is harsh will be fast dwindling

To be fair to Baxter I used to play rugby with a guy who has gone full conspiracy theory nut, he's a Flat Earther and everything. I'll never take him off Facebook because he's fantastic entertainment value. There's only so much TV you can watch and books to read. Having some conspiracy theories to listen to would provide some live entertainment.

Worrying that we've got professional players believing such guff though.

Students having a spliff and watching ancient aliens is harmless fun. This hardcore right wing qanon/anti mask stuff is directly responsible for spreading the virus and killing countless people. It's fucking awful.

Exeter's reputation as a club is really circling the drain right now.

The whole nice guy thing doesn't last long at the top...

So many words in order to say... what? We, the British public, are being abused? The whole thing is a scam? People aren’t dying? I sort of want to dig some more but I don’t know what I’ll find.

Is coach Dildo communicating this fantastical misinformation publicly?

Also, is anyone looking into if the club knowingly breached protocols?

Well he wasn't a student with a spliff, quite the opposite.

You are right this fake news, misinformation because you don't like the truth crap is bullshit and is killing people. The fecking idiots will refuse to be taking the vaccine next.

Fucking libertarian "personal responsibility" nonsense...

Yeah, sure, but do look up the definition of a society, love, and get back to me when you hasten the breakdown of ours and go looking for your iPhone in the midst of armageddon.

Perhaps no surprise looking at his hair.
