NRL to allow Arrow to reach Rabbitohs century after MND retirement

The NRL is planning an exception to its rules to allow Jai Arrow to reach the 100-game milestone for the South Sydney Rabbitohs after retiring earlier this year due to a motor neurone disease diagnosis.

MND Australia describes it as an umbrella term for a group of progressive neurological conditions in which the motor neurones degenerate. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most common form, and is often called Lou Gehrig's disease.
