Warriors coach Nathan Brown has voiced his concern about the Rugby League World Cup going ahead later this year, asking for people to "look at the common sense of it."
It was confirmed tonight that the tournament scheduled to be held in England from late October to late November will go ahead as planned, after initial thoughts it would be postponed for a year due to Covid-19.
Having recently relocated from Central Coast to Queensland due to an outbreak of the virus, Brown is extremely alert to the risks involved in staging the Cup.
"We're in isolation up here because there are 65 people a day in Sydney getting Covid; there's 30,000 a day getting it in England," Brown said when asked what he thought of the tournament going ahead. "You tell me where the common sense lies there."
