How do you get an exemption from a mandatory rule ? This competition is so fucking contradictory. They stand Brown down after letting Burgess play , and then let Weed play after he is subject to a mandatory rule .
How can you not be of the belief that the NRL have favourite clubs and club bosses . If SuoerLeague was an option tomorrow I'm not too sure I'd be as supportive of the ARL / NRL this time around .

Yep was thinking the exactly same thing. MANDATORY 11 days....Gotta love the NRL, just change the rules whenever it suit them
It's a bit of a joke . Is it not enough we have to put up with their officials being able to influence the games on the paddock with their inconsistent rulings , now they're even stepping into changing mandatory rules as they please . It kinda makes you feel like they take the punters for absolute dummies who they can purposely be as corrupt as they like right in front of our noses just to show us we can't do a fucking thing about it , and nobody with a voice in the media will call them out on it .
Ok , thanks for the clarification. I withdraw my rant .

Clubs have always been able to get a exemption , the just need to get a independent specialist to look at the report of why the player failed his HIA , a players past history of concussions and then they do a examination.
Is it a dodgy process ? Yes
Is a player going to be truthful at the examination about any symptoms they may be suffering from ? Of course not .
But when a player gets an exemption he needs to sign a document which protects the NRL .
"I think Macron does finish this year. Don't quote me on that but I recall hearing something about it a while ago. BTW I hate the all yellow uniform. At least wear blue shorts and socks. We're not the Parra Bananas. "
"We definitely have depth but those mentioned (papalii Lorenzo and volkman) are all just that- depth options that could fill in at a punch but not regular first grade ready yet. Hopefully one of them takes a few leaps forward in the off season"
"Grub of a bloke uses his platform to rubbish people that he has massive agendas against . I reckon there was a period there where he rubbished and attacked player manger Isaac Mosses' everyday on nrl 360 or mmm. Imagine a player went 5 times over…"
"As long as Volkman is depth than that's fine but you wouldn't want the guy running the ship for any long period of time.IMO he's not nrl quality and he's bounced around a few clubs now and hasn't been able to crack it.
Cup is seemingly his high tide…"

Mandatory is only catagory 1
Catageory 2 the club can ask for an exemption from a neurologist - which Cantebury did - all aboveboard
