ARLC revise flu shot waiver for players

Despite pressure to adopt a "no jab, no play" policy, the ARL Commission has revised a vaccination waiver clause to allow NRL players to play if they refuse to get a flu shot.
However, ARLC chairman Peter V'landys has warned players who do not sign the altered waiver will be banned.
The governing body on Thursday tinkered with the clause after it emerged Canberra trio Josh Papalii, Sia Soliola and Joseph Tapine refused to sign the waiver on religious grounds and Gold Coast's Bryce Cartwright defiantly rejected vaccination.
Overall three per cent of NRL players refused a flu shot that formed part of strict biosecurity measures that will allow the league's resumption on May 28.
