He dug this hole himself mate. Now he has to dig himself out. That’s how it works.

Oh totally mate, Izzy know's what he's doing. He's not a moron and can understand the consequences......but it's still laughable to think the NRL is taking some kind of inclusive high ground. Great for a media headline, but not reality, clearly.

I'd say he might be the biggest moron to have ever lived.

Whatever you think of Folau, it is bizarre that the NRL wouldn’t welcome him or register him, considering some of the blokes that are running around.

I can completely understand why clubs wouldn’t go near him

As said they seem to have finally woken up to how much damage to their brand these dkcheads can do. Long may it continue.

NRL not inclusive of bigoted fundamentalist Christians? I can live with that.

I don’t mind if they are drawing a line in the sand- so long as the next Matthew Lodge or whatever doesn’t get a pass. To be fair, they said no to Ben Barba

To be accurate, NQ said no to Ben Barba (After they said yes to Robert Lui), NRL simply stated that he no longer has a contract.

Falau would not be up to NRL speed. It would be a physical ability issue. After all he has been playing a far less demanding code as far as contact and collision is concerned. He wouldn't be up to it!

Israel Folau is a full back. There is little difference in terms of contact and collision between rugby union and rugby league if you are a full back.

If he wasn’t religious he view may not be askew. Christians openly state and preach what Folau said. If he wasnt under the “belief” then his opinion may have changed and been different through this life.
What he said is wrong but it’s also influenced directly by religion. By his own admission. You see any agnostics or atheists getting up there and panning homosexuals?
Was he entertaining free will, or merely scuppered by the denominations / abomination/
