This is an interesting read explaining simply what goes on in preparing a stadium for a game with no crowd.

For example I didn't fully appreciate that players only have the match time free from social distancing.
Let me tell you something cucumber

Celebrations in the Wasps changing room after both the Bath and Sarries games suggest otherwise! :)

We know there are some differences between rugby and football, perhaps that is one? Certainly there will be more expectations on players not being able to distance due to training, so maybe they're in a "bubble" much like groups at schools?
