He never went until he was 14 and even then it was just going for 6 weeks in the summer. He never moved properly until he was 16.
Thanks for the info marra

No he wouldn't. Again Farnworth still wouldn't have qualified under what was proposed, they never proposed dropping the requirement to reside in NSW or Queensland before your 13th Birthday.
Its also all gone all quiet because they have said they aren't changing the rules, that was announced weeks ago.Apologies in advance but I was under the impression that farnworth moved down under before hitting his teens?

But Farnworth still wouldn't be eligible. They have also said they aren't changing the rules anyhow.
He would be under the proposed new rules but it’s all gone quiet.

I'll squash the Farnworth Origin rumour.
He isn't eligible, you need to have resided in NSW or Queensland before your 13th birthday. Or have been born there, or your father played Origin.
He'd be eligible for Australia soon (5 year residency) but will never be eligible for Origin unless they change the rules.
There was some talk about changing the rules about SOO eligibility a few weeks back which would allow players of tier 1 nations turnout for either Queensland or NSW.

I warn anyone who is depressed about lockdown here not to click the link and look at the full agenda for FanFest 2021 and a whole day of Rugby League.
On the wing.

If Saints had a spare ÂŁ100m to chuck at it I still wouldn’t advise them to try to crack Liverpool.Â
I’m absolutely convinced that there’s enough untapped gems in the Liverpool and greater Merseyside region at schoolboy level waiting to be unearthed to justify investment from either saints, wire or even Widnes.

Quite agree - defo both Hull clubs should have spread the word into Lincolnshire
This. Remove  hull and Lincolnshire and replace them with st helens&warrington with Merseyside or wigan and north/central Lancashire.
Its RL all over.

It’s a shame that there’s no RL presence in the Carlisle area and north Cumbria anymore as a team from Dumfries could compete against them.
