Pretty sure it was a breach of contract, Halifax apologised and settled out of court, I think Taverner's post sums it up well about the bloke, who is perfect amiable when you meet him away from the pitch.
His contract release had been negotiated.
It was a written agreement at the time of his contract release.
The RFL did rule Sam could play for Halifax.
Still at the very least not ethical and in my opinion Eagles were absolutley right in contesting it.
Not only would this have affected them in the short term but it would have sent out the wrong message to others with the potential to open the flood gates for players and clubs just doing what they liked.
