CHALK it up as a win for commonsense.

The NRL has overturned a ridiculous decision to ban Rabbitohs star Issac Luke from Grand Final celebrations after Bunnies fans expressed their fury.

As The Daily Telegraph reported, the suspended South Sydney hooker had been barred from holding up the trophy or accepting a premiership ring at the official post-match Grand Final presentation, in the event his side won Sunday’s decider against the Bulldogs.

The NRL operations manual states suspended players “must not enter the playing field or area inside the fence prior to, during or after a match”.

Luke was rubbed out of the Grand Final after being suspended by an NRL judiciary panel on Tuesday night for a spear tackle on Sonny Bill Williams.

Rabbitohs fans took to Twitter to voice their disgust at the decision, describing it as “bullsh*t” and “disgraceful”.

And the NRL actually listened.

Speaking on Triple M’s The Grill Team this morning, NRL Head of Football Todd Greenberg said Luke would be free to enter the field of play and join in Grand Final activities with his team.

Think telling Issac Luke he can't be involved in celebrations on field is a bit unfair. He's been apart of that side for years. — Daniel Pettigrew (@roosterboy60) October 1, 2014

I feel like demanding a refund from the @NRL for Gold GF tix if they don't let @issacluke_14 celebrate with the team. Disgraceful. — Jackie (@jackie_jade_) October 1, 2014

Bullshit that issac luke won't be allowed to celebrate with his team after all the graft he has put in the last 7 year #southsydney — Thomas (@TomHooley_) October 1, 2014

Triple M host Matty Johns asked Greenberg: “The law book, Todd, says that a suspended player cannot enter the field of play prior to, during or after a match, but Todd surely common sense can prevail here?”

“Yeah, absolutely Matty,” Greenberg responded.

“Clearly we’ve got some extraordinary circumstances this week in relation to the Grand Final so I’ve spent the last couple of days talking to the Rabbitohs and we’ve agreed that absolutely there should be some commonsense or what you would call some discretion.

“People can be rest assured Issac will be permitted on the ground after the game, he’ll be certainly part of the commiserations or the celebrations, he’ll be in all the teammates photos, he’ll do the lap of honour.”

Regardless, Luke will still be exempt from receiving a premiership ring.

“He won’t actually collect the ring because there are only 17 of those which are for the players that played,” Greenberg added.

“If the Rabbits want to do something separate that’s entirely up to them, but we’re certainly not in the business of trying to stop him enjoying the post-match.”
