Not only that, but, as the RFU now suspect, some players had shown symptoms before the game on Wednesday. Thus, they intentionally placed the Saints players and officials at risk.
Crikey... has this definitely been confirmed?
Dimes certainly looked shifty, yesterday, and both his and PRL interviews on BT Sport felt scripted and contrived.
Something rarely mentioned, but for me very concerning, is lung scarring and damage from COVID-19. Does this fully clear up and after how long? I know people still breathless months later (and not old layabouts like me). Could be v bad news for players... French clubs seem to be taking seriously, in terms of extended recovery (heard raised for one of the Paris clubs, I think).
Saints and maybe other clubs could and arguably should sue Sale if player welfare and livelihoods wilfully put at risk.
Perhaps critically, Diamond said Sale had a reversed test result for one player -- wondering if related to latest national testing snafu?
