The Super League club investigated the incident, with the players involved apologising for their actions. They have also been given written warnings, with their fines being donated to Wakefield Hospice.

The games were set to take place over the next two weekends but instead the Champions Cup and Challenge Cup will go straight to a knockout format in April. European Cup organisers (EPCR) are set to announce the revamped structure of the competitions in the coming week. "The decision was made by the EPCR executive," said Darren Childs. Premiership Rugby's chief executive added: "The reason we can't reschedule those is that there are no available weekends. Our season is now full right until our final.

I don't think it will happen to be honest.

Will the contract continue with the BBC and ITV sharing games, but maybe some swaps in which games are covered( such as the BBC being allowed inside Twickenham again) , or will Sky make a bid that the BBC and ITV cannot match? Also is it possible Channel 4 could enter the fray?

Captain Charles Ollivon will miss the game after contracting the virus, along with the nine other France players who have tested positive so far. Les Bleus are top of the Six Nations table after winning their opening games against Italy and Ireland. A decision on whether the match can be played will be made on Wednesday.

Glasgow Warriors full-back Rufus McLean has been called up for the first time, with Edinburgh number eight Nick Haining also recalled to face Ireland. But the France game is poised to be played later after a Covid-19 outbreak forced that match to be postponed. "As players, we want the game to go ahead," Skinner said.
