Not sure if this has been brought up (didn't scroll back) but why is everyone getting so worked up?
Folau, who believes in an imaginary diety, has said homosexuals (real, in real life) and others will go to 'Hell' (imaginary destination).
That's like me saying vegans (real, in real life) will spend eternity in 'Mordor' or 'Narnia' (both imaginary) for not devouring the flesh.
It's about time Christianity and all other religions get relegated to the position they deserve
An infantalised, indoctrinated, imaginary view which has no bearing in the modern world.
And yes I know, I'm going to HELL [INSERT YOUR OWN SHITHOLE HERE]

@MiketheSnow bingo. I mean surely the only ones who should be offended are the gays that believe in the exact same hell as Folau? Even then, he didn't actually say it's what he thinks did he? To him it's what happens.

It was a great opportunity for lots of consequence free moral posturing that people and businesses just couldn't pass up, as there's no such word as "Christianityophobia".

Great opportunity to cement my opinion of which celebrities are a sanctimonious fluffybunny in this country too.
Alot of pi people in NZ are quite religious , I wonder how they feel about the saturation mocking of their beliefs in the media?

Kafer saying today we're better off without him.
Interesting from the guy who is one of our High Performance Coaching Level Coordination Supervisory Hangers-On.

That’s comical Ali levels of delusion. Great to see though .

FWIW, most people I speak to here in Sydney are happy to see the back of him, and think RA has done the right thing.
The usual blowhards are defending Folau, but I don't think the public are behind them.
Certainly would be interesting to see the crowd reaction if Izzy returns to the field.

have split posts from the last day or so, lets keep this one focused on the actual rugby aspect and use the other one to discuss the peripheral religious, freedom of speech etc side of it.
Appreciate there is inevitable crossover, but try to keep this thread to the actual sport side of things.

Have they made a decision yet? Has he actually been fired?
Effectively, yes. When RA, Waratahs and the respective coaches and captain say you won't be picked.

So what are the Wallabies chances without him? My memory is hazy, but did he make much of a difference at the last RWC?

He's far and away their best attacking player and points outlet. He's been the difference in a number of tests. This is a huge loss.

But is he still getting paid? Is he effectively on Gardening Leave?

I was wondering that. Quade was effectively a very expensive club player for a while wasn't he? I assume RA will want to cancel the contract altogether, even if it means a small payout.
