    @machpants 4 or 5 pts each for the cancelled game? I wonder if the rules are up on the web somewhere?

    Depends what they decide, I've not seen any rules yet. It would just be like SANZAAR to leave it until too late to make these decisions. It is the sort of thing that should be out there already, after engaging with stakeholders before one of those stakeholders has a vested covid positive interest in the result

    It would be 2 points each wouldn't it? Just like previously cancelled games in the past (i.e. after the Christchurch shooting).

    This from the Herald says that the Blues, Chiefs and Highlanders will play a 3 half game this weekend should MP be isolated.

    • Should Moana Pasifika's preseason match against the Highlanders be scrapped Lendrum indicated the other teams would engage in a game of three halves to ensure they had a hit out.
      "At this stage, whilst not confirmed, there is a distinct possibility Moana Pasifika may not be able to participate in the final weekend of preseason and we'll adjust the scheduling if that's the scenario we have to work with.

    https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/rugby/super-rugby/127708635/scrum-safety-fears-drive-super-rugby-pacific-rethink-as-covid19-hits-reds

    Australian and New Zealand rugby officials are mulling a rule change to allow Super Rugby games to start with uncontested scrums in the event of a Covid-19 outbreak this season.
    
    ....
    
    Safety considerations mean props will undergo extra training and monitoring to make sure they are up to Super Rugby standard, but officials may also ask World Rugby to allow games to start with uncontested scrums in the event a team cannot field enough props to contest the set piece.

    I like watching league, but not when I’m expecting rugby. This is a stink idea.

    Robertson's sights are set on Test rugby, ideally with the All Blacks

    So was that for members of the Moana Pasifika team? I havent been following the news on it but Ofa was the blues player as his brother tested positive.

    And didnt MP play the chiefs last weekend in a preseason? Surely that also creates an issue unless timing is favourable

    @tim Geezus, 7 MP players positive? And then waiting whether they've infected team mates, I guess?

    If a player contracted covid in Auckland and then the entire squad flew to Queenstown they could have big problems.
