if i want to make my son eligible for the maroons, does the new rule mean he only has to live in Qld before the age of 13?
so can i move him up to my aunts place over the holidays and then he's eligible?
we had originally always planned to move up that way when he's around 14/15yo, but under the new rules, thats not possible anymore?
They'll probably use schooling records and/or code registration to indicate whether a kid actually lived in their respective state. Sending them up for a few weeks to 'live', won't achieve a positive outcome for you.
so under the new rules, do you think 1 full year of schooling in Qld before he turns 13yo is enough? or if he was school most of his pre-teen years in the ACT would make him a blue?
i done the same thing as a kid, as a 16yo i went up to Cairns to my pop's club (kangaroo's) and signed on in a 1st grade game on the bench - they put me on with 5 mins to go! i always assumed this would make me a Qld-er as i was playing rugby at a private school before that!
pity i never made it tho....lol!
