putting them at higher risk of
injury. But the players know that
certain things will have to
happen once this is over with
and they have no problem
playing their part.”
Carvell has also taken on
board Toronto coach
Brian McDermott’s
plan to play
hour-long
matches in
four
15-minute
quarters, and
has his own
proposal to help
the situation if matches
become more frequent.
He added: “I’m willing to
listen to anything and having
hour-long games split into
four would mean that players
have more rest.
“If we do need to play
more games it might be
worth looking at that and
I’d like to see the number
of substitutes allowed
being increased,
perhaps having
extra players on
the bench for
injuries.”

RUGBY LEAGUE: UNION CHIEF’S VOW


RUGBY LEAGUE players are
prepared to put their bodies on
the line to complete the season



  • but their welfare must be
    taken into account.
    That is the verdict of former
    Great Britain prop Garreth
    Carvell.
    Carvell is the head rep for the
    GMB union, who account for
    around 65 per cent of rugby
    league’s players across three
    professional divisions.
    Leeds chief executive Gary
    Hetherington, inset, raised
    eyebrows last week by saying he
    did not want to hear whingeing
    about player welfare over
    multiple games a week.
    But Carvell said: “The players
    are willing to do anything they
    can – as long as there’s
    transparency and honesty
    between everybody.
    “Historically, the trust
    between players and clubs has
    diminished somewhat and we’re
    trying to build that back up.
    “The feedback from players is
    that they are more than ready to
    play their part, but everything
    needs to be a massive joint
    effort. The welfare side of
    it always has to be a
    consideration and
    we’ve spoken to the
    RFL at length about it.
    “Whenever they’ve
    laid out their
    scheduling recently,
    player welfare has been at
    the forefront of it and that’s
    common sense.
    “I think what Gary was trying
    to say is that there are going to
    be extra fixtures in the calendar
    and there’s no doubt there is.
    There might be times when
    players have to play three times
    in 10 days.
    “But that might only happen
    maybe two or three times. For a
    start, people who haven’t been
    working won’t be able to afford
    to go to three games a week
    regularly and, from a quality
    point of view, the matches would
    be terrible, with players’ fatigue

BUT CARVELL IN WARNING


I’ve still got a few more scraps


left in me says battling Burns


RICKY BURNS insists
that he is far from
being finished as
he approaches his
37th birthday.
Burns, one of only
three Britons to win
world titles at three
different weights,
celebrates his birthday
next Monday and says
he is not ready to quit.
The Scot, whose last
fight was a loss to Lee
Selby in October, says
he has a few more
battles left in him and
hopes to be back in the

ring later this year. “I’ll
know myself when it is
right to step away,”
said Burns.
“I won’t kid
myself.
“If it came
to the point I
was struggling
to get out of
bed in the
morning at
the thought of
training, then that
would be telling, but I

love training. Boxing is
so tough that if your
head’s not in it, you
need to get out of
the sport. But I’m as
focused and fired up
as ever.
“I think I
have maybe a
couple of
years and two
or three fights
left.
“I’d love to
finish my
career in Scotland with
one last big fight in the
Hydro in Glasgow.”
