This discussion has never been had on LU ever before.
The argument always boils down to whether schoolboy football is considered senior football or not.
What happened to the posts from the Union stooge in here by the way?
Yeh however 2009 is a little after Inglis's debut when this stuff had been resolved to an extent.
The issue with schoolboys footy has always been tricky because of the age gap between NSW and QLD schools.
Still glad they resolved most of this with the new ruling I mean playing for the junior Kiwis and then NSw and Qld was getting ridiculous
Im your f**ked mind of course

No there was never anything tricky it was first senior game after the age of 16 and the Arrive Alive Cup was classified as a senior comp. I'm not trying to argue just the facts are the facts there are no grey areas.
That's the way champ when presented with a calm factual argument, revert to childish responses. Move on you are done son.
The Black and the White of it is that the new rules are not retrospective. They apply to every situation from their introduction but apply not for arrangements already in place. That is just that fact and the facts are the facts. There are no grey areas.
Inglis is a Maroon.
You keep saying that in threads ? Why are you scared to discuss things? Those facts are just your opinion mate not facts at all.
As I said 10 years ago schoolboy footy wasn't seen as Senior footy, nothing you have presented has changed that.
And the ARL ruled at the time that he played his first senior game in QLD.
Funny how Inglis causes so much angst yet Jimmy T and Uate are fine.

Carr said the ARL had closed loopholes that enabled Inglis to slip the net.
"He is eligible for NSW and should be playing for NSW, but it's not his fault based on the evidence the ARL had at the time," he said.
"He was a rare one where his election got through, but we're making sure it doesn't happen again."
Im not saying that the rules are retrospective, at the time the rules were whichever state you played your first senior game in over the age of 16 was the state you were eligible for.
Inglis played whilst he was over the age of 16 for Hunter Sports High (NSW) in the Arrive Alive Cup, which at the time was deemed a Senior Competition.
He was eligible to play for NSW that is the facts. He chose to play for QLD for whatever reason is known to him and frankly I don't care.
I am saying that regardless of what people say the facts are not in doubt he was eligible for NSW not QLD.
As El Diablo has stated below you are incorrect the ARL never ruled that the Arrive Alive Cup was not Senior footy (where is your link to support that claim?).
Carr was the ARL bossDidn't claim that, I claimed that the ARL ruled at the time that his first senior game of footy was in Qld.

As for having the NSW RL CEO comment on player eligibility could you have picked a more impartial source.
What's Carr thoughts on Junior Kiwis playing for NSW??
Carr was the ARL boss
