Just speculation sorry Felix, have had confirmation from RWA that the ARC qualification criteria is the same as for Super 14, ie must be eligable for Australian duty.

[felixnelson]

ahh i see.
i thought he may have been available as the "marquee player" or something.
they are having that arnt they?

[Burgs]

I don't believe so however that may just be the WA self imposed rules...

Doesn't surprise me that Merhts and Greegs have taken the opportunity to play together, will be interesting to see how they link up.
