Players can celebrate after every game if they wish and many still probably do so in places like Warrington and Wigan but it's the sanctioning of Testimonials that is the issue here.

Didn't he leave Bradford forgoing the chance of a Testimonial with them?

That being the case you can bet Leeds were forced in to some acknowledgement of that sacrifice by his agent when negotiating his contract only 3 years down the line he still gets one awarded by the RFL.

As a side issue you're handing JP a big fat cheque directly related to his pro rugby career that almost certainly doesn't count against his present clubs salary cap.

Is that equitable?

Apparently...
