Now, now, now... with the Heremaia dispensation, you've abandoned the moral high ground on this.
It's a common sense decision - I'd like to think they'd have taken care of Wakefield's club-trained players at least, in the same way.
Is it getting to the point where the fed-trained rule is more trouble than it is worth? Good on paper, but... It isn't well understood by fans, it's leaky as hell (though this will diminish), it potentially creates strange inconsistencies (the 20 year old convert from Union, for example - though you'd assume he'd get a dispensation) and it makes life more complicated for clubs (alongside the quota, the cap and club-trained rule). Maybe with the NRL about to become much wealthier, perhaps it is also going to be a bit pointless.
