May be delayed as most of club(all bar 3) are in dispute over money according to the bbc sport web site. Something to do with hull paying full contract from October and other clubs thought they had a deal at a lower level of pay.
Super League's restart in August could be under threat because of player unrest over continued pay cuts, says Warrington prop Mike Cooper
Only three teams are believed to have been able to reach an agreement on wage structures with their players for when the season resumes.
That leaves nine clubs unable to return to training prior to the restart until they can negotiate deals with players.
At present the season is expected to restart on 2 August.
The 12 Super League owners had a tacit agreement to continue pay cuts of between 10-15% - introduced when the season was suspended and income streams began to dry up - until the end of 2020.
But the BBC understands that at least one club, Hull FC, have agreed to pay their players in full from October at the latest, and that has led to unrest among players at other clubs who want similar deals.
The issue has been added to the agenda of a Super League meeting on Wednesday, with several owners and chief executives believed to be frustrated by Hull FC's unilateral stance.
Warrington's Cooper has aired his views on the situation.
Speaking on the Micky & Woody Show, an online programme hosted by former Warrington players Paul Wood and Micky Higham, Cooper said: "I think there are only three teams who have agreed what their pay is going to be.
So they're talking about us playing in two weeks and there are only three clubs that have agreed to return to training. As it stands right now, there is no competition."
Sounds like trouble at Mill sad that we have clubs, players falling out in these uncertain times.
