Plea: Chris Boyd

NORTHAMPTON Saints boss Chris Boyd hopes sport can continue through the Omicron phase of the pandemic “for the sanity of the public”.
Seven European rugby matches due to be played between French and British teams this weekend were postponed because of France’s new travel rules. Yesterday, Bath v La Rochelle and Sale v Clermont in the Champions Cup did not go ahead, nor Worcester v Biarritz in the Challenge Cup.
Scarlets v Bordeaux, Toulouse v Wasps, Stade Francais v Bristol and London Irish v Brive are all off on today.
Tournament organisers hope the games can be play...
