Jai Arrow Makes Emotional 99th Game Return

South Sydney Rabbitohs forward Jai Arrow made a brief but heart-warming return to an NRL field on Saturday, appearing in his 99th game for the club three months after his MND diagnosis.

Arrow, who was diagnosed with motor neurone disease (MND) earlier this year and immediately announced his retirement, was granted NRL dispensation to make the special appearance. The emotional moment paves the way for him to reach his 100-game milestone next week when the Rabbitohs face the Roosters. rouesnews.click

The forward, who has been an integral part of South Sydney's recent success, has received overwhelming support from the rugby league community since his diagnosis was revealed earlier this year.
