Even senior members on the Project Apollo working committee were reportedly stunned by revelations on Wednesday the 2020 NRL season will resume in May.

The Australian Rugby League Commission will meet on Thursday to discuss recommendations handed to them by the eight-member innovations committee charged with giving the game a head start when coronavirus restrictions begin to be eased.

Unfortunately, the latest proposal that the season could restart on May 21 reportedly blindsided members of the committee responsible for planning the return of the competition.

Project Apollo chairman Wayne Pearce is joined on the committee by Roosters coach Trent Robinson, Raiders CEO Don Furner, RLPA CEO Clint Newton, former politician Troy Grant, NRL chief commercial officer Andrew Abdo, NRL chief corporate affairs officer Liz Deegan, and NRL head of football Graham Annesley.

The Courier-Mail revealed the innovations committee will present two plans to ARLC chairman Peter V’landys on Thursday.

One plan calls for the 16 clubs to play each other once in a 15-round season before a finals series would take place.

The other proposal would carve the 16 clubs into two conferences, however, the report claims the NRL is confident it will not have to pull the trigger on the controversial “bubble” lockdown, allowing players to isolate at home with their families.

The proposals will reportedly allow the 2020 State of Origin series to remain the jewel in rugby league’s crown with a mid-season, three-match series to take place.

It is also expected that the Warriors will be able to compete in the 2020 season with the report indicating the NRL is confident of securing the club special exemptions from the New Zealand and Australian governments, allowing them to enter a fortnight’s self-isolation in Sydney.

The brazen proposals fly in the face of government messaging for Australian residents to stay at home and avoid all non-essential travel.

It’s why at least one member on the innovations committee was “stunned” to hear the committee was recommending a May 21 season restart.

“I have to say I am stunned by the thought of a May 21 resumption of the competition,” Sydney Morning Herald reporter Andrew Webster told Sky Sports Radio on Thursday.

“What makes me think that is that even people on the innovation committee — that was charged about 10 or so days ago to come up with solutions for this and to work out when the game can restart – they were stunned by the news that broke yesterday, that there was going to be a May 21 or May 28 restart to the competition.

“Which makes me wonder whether this was just the case in the first place.

“I just think with something like this it’s too complicated and too complex to be talking like that.

“I’m just worried that the game is rushing back too early.”

He said the mood across the rugby league community is divided about the best way for the code to press ahead.

I think the rush is due to broadcast payments being impacted if season goes beyond October. Unfortunately I think this is the NRL fucking things up yet again in their rush to make decisions ... forced somewhat by their poor management in the past where they have blown all the money meant to be in reserve. So we see previous bad decisions now being a perpetrator of more bad decisions. I think this will not end well for the NRL. At the least it’s a bad look ... particularly at this stage to be announcing such. Are advertisers going to be wanting to associate with this ? Maybe?

Just seems hat past por management is Forcing them into more poor management decisions I feel.

Get help your rants are getting worse
You can't seem to post about Rl without mentioning shit
Shit shit shit shit .
& I know this is not going to happen it never does
Can you show where the remarks are about the afl not caring for the health of players .
I can't recall posting it .
.

If Rl doesn't break any laws then they can do what they think is best .
I'm sure they've had plenty of medical advice
Personally I can't see it going ahead .

There also seems to be a massive backlash on social media at the thought of it going ahead. Again, poor decisions and management in the past seems to be driving poor decision making now. It looks amateurish and desperate in my opinion.
