NRL THREATEN 10-YEAR BAN FOR R360 DEFECTORS

Posted by Cʜɪᴇғy Mclovin 🐐 on October 15, 2025 at 2:43pm in NRL

ARL Commission / NRL threatening bans The Australian Rugby League Commission (and associated NRL leadership) has threatened 10-year bans for players or agents who negotiate, sign, or agree (verbal or written) with a competition (like R360) that is not recognised by the ARLC as a national sporting federatio
What those bans cover
1. Players: any agreement to join an unrecognised league would trigger a ban of 10 years from participation in the NRL or any ARLC-sanctioned competitions. News.com.au
2. Agents: similar 10-year sanctions for NRL-accredited player agents who assist or advise players in these agreements. News.com.au
Potential legal issues Some legal commentators have said that imposing bans or sanctions of this kind might face legal challenges, especially under employment/contract law — e.g. whether such bans are a restraint of trade.

So if a player agent advises some player not to go to R360 then by the way it's written, having advised them in any capacity, should be banned for 10 years.

That's totally weird.
