Challenges at every turn if NRL wants fans back in the stands on July 1 | SMHsport

Sitting several seats apart, no food or drink on sale, entering and leaving venues in shifts, the echo of deserted terraces – when the fans return to watch live sport, it will not be the same as when they left.

The NRL hopes crowds will be back for November's Origin series but it's unlikely to resemble anything like this, as David Klemmer celebrates with fans in 2018.The NRL, the most bullish of the domestic winter codes, originally said it hoped crowds could be back in time for the finals in October and the State of Origin series planned for three weeks in November.

Cardboard cut-outs, like these at a baseball game in South Korea earlier this month, could fill the bleachers for the forseeable future."How much of your stadium can you fill? I don’t know. We are recommending in public places a gap of 1.5m ... do we exactly know what that number should be? No, we don’t. The further away, the better. Not jam-packed is ideal.

"We’re going to have to try things a bit and learn from experience. We’ll have a number of games and see if things occur. There will be enough contact that happens at these events to get a sense of whether it is high risk or not," Woods said.

A successful NRL relaunch this week will be mission accomplished for Peter V'landysThe NRL was ridiculed when it targeted May 28 for its season restart, but Peter V'landys's bullish leadership has meant the league is now on the cusp of fulfilling its promise, writes Richard Hinds. Yech. Enough of this nonsense. The NRL have been arrogant and shambolic. They placed themselves as an exception to all since the pandemic started. Yet again, wanting to strong-arm CMO’s, they push for crowds before any medical ok. Stop aiding these goons and gangsters.
