PLAYER Ezra Mam

So JAC and Mitchell are allowed to have the All-stars game counted towards their suspensions ... Mam is not.

According the Meyn / Badel article, "Mam qualifies for All Stars selection with his Indigenous heritage, but given he has not played in the pre-season fixture before, the NRL has indicated it will not count the exhibition match as part of his ban."

although in the same article they say that "Walsh has previously had the All Stars game counted as part of a suspension when he was with the Warriors in 2022. Walsh is eligible for the Indigenous and Maori All Stars teams but has never featured in the contest."

Did I see somewhere that Mam has been selected for it twice, but hasn't been able to play due to injuries or something

I am sure mam and his team could appeal that decision and get it over turned citing the precedents, but I think he and the broncos might be wanting to just keep their heads down and hope the entire incident blows over.

Appealing would just cause another media circus about it.
