whatever your own personal beliefs, the issue is to do with the fact that RL have sign a player that has been sacked by his own league.
Therefore this is an integrity issue for the game, as it could be viewed as opportunistic and lacking in moral consistency.
By sanctioning the signing the RFL has isolated itself and it could be argued has shown a lack of moral consistency with its fellow sports governing bodies.
And that position is regardless of the issues that caused the ban.
