all allegations at the moment but if true surely NRL has to consider a ban for life.

The NRL have taken the stand and banned a player who posted offensive online content and breached another sports code of conduct. The allegations against Fainu if true are not far short of the seriousness of the Folau indiscretion, factor in the criminal element and it is close to warranting the same result

Are you serious? Folau paraphrasing the bible is a bigger indiscretion than a guy stabbing someone?

I enjoy your rants as much as anyone, but in a criminal case where charges have been laid but not proven, the NRL is kind of hamstrung in what they can do. He’s an employee. They’ve stood him down. If he is found guilty he will be sacked. What else can they do?

This 100%. Guys beating women, assaulting people etc yet someone's social media post is seen as worse and gets punished more? Actual WTF...
Yes. Religious fundamentalists are far more detrimental to society then one idiot stabbing another idiot.

Ummm he HAS been stood down, pending court proceedings, hasn't he? The way some are going on in here you'd think he was charged, convicted but the NRL still have him playing... He wasn't, they're not and there's still court proceedings happening... What do you expect them to do? Build their own little cell at NRLHQ to hold him in until he's either convicted or not?

Seems like some people *cough Mr Angry cough* just want to be outraged at the NRL...

What the NRL is has not already been judge, jury and executioner?

That is what they do with bad taste photos or weed smokers.

Commit actual crimes, wait and see. Forgive and forget.

FTR my outrage is for the dickhead with a knife. Seriously who does that?

Well a bad taste photo doesn't land you in court so they aren't required to wait for non-existent court case to finish.

Because religious fundamentalists have never committed acts of violence right?

I havent said anything about religious fundamentalism. Someguy said that Fainu sticking a knife in a guy is almost as bad as Folau saying that the bible says that gay people are going to hell. ITs a simple as that.

Its ridiculous. There is no comparison between getting stabbed and someone telling you you are going to hell on social media.

Unless you are suggesting that Folau's indiscretion is that is his a fundmentalist christian? That he should be banned for that?

I'm suggesting loud mouth religious sheep like Folau have f**ked up the world beyond repair and incited and committed many acts of violence.
