The National Rugby League has updated its rules to give Jai Arrow special dispensation. The amendment follows his forced retirement from rugby league because of motor neurone disease. This official action enables Arrow to reach 100 games for the South Sydney Rabbitohs. Emotional Rabbitohs players heard about the act. He can now achieve a century.
In a separate case, a man given a diagnosis of MND 29 years ago stays ill but alive. In a different report, a UK patient aged 36 was informed he has 10 years to live upon his diagnosis.
