The National Rugby League has updated its rules to give Jai Arrow special dispensation. The rule update follows his forced retirement from rugby league owing to motor neurone disease. This official action enables Arrow to reach 100 games for the South Sydney Rabbitohs. Deeply moved Rabbitohs players were informed of the decision. He can now hit a milestone.
Elsewhere, a man living with MND 29 years ago stays ill but alive. In another development, a UK patient aged 36 was informed he has 10 years to live upon his diagnosis.
